I mean, if you’re innocent. One of the trickiest things that some law enforcement folks try is to talk you into letting them search your vehicle-or house, for that matter. In that case, you are suspected of doing something, and it’s their job to try to get you to admit to it or to say a bit too much and incriminate yourself. If they answer no to that question, you are in fact not free to go. Basically, if they’ve got nothing on you, they have to let you go. Some people ask it slightly differently: “Am I being detained?”-which is a version of the same question. In any situation involving the police, you can ask this question. Other people don't see the sh*t that we see." And I've had to retrain myself to see myself the way others might see me, to not notice the finer intricacies that I see on myself. "When we look at other women, we don't see the same flaws that we see in ourself. Like, who gives a f*ck, it is what it is, I can't do anything about it."įrom there, it became about reclaiming her sexiness and self-confidence, which started with revisiting how she looked at herself. "It's been slow progress, but I just kind of got sick of caring. Once her permanent ostomy was in place, many of her symptoms were alleviated, and her experiences with "number 2" became more matter-of-fact than anything else.
