"Until I was seven, I was very close to my mother because I was so ill and she had to teach me how to..." — Toyah Willcox

I just find social media such a robotic experience, whereas punk was right in your face.

I had no interest in people telling me to be feminine, to be ladylike, to wear dresses - it just made me rebel completely.

I can't live in a world of dullards. So I think on that level, I'm definitely punk.

My mother is not a naturally happy person and is very complex. She won't allow any of us to touch her. Not even my father hugs her. And, as a family, we never kiss each other. Yet we do have a close relationship.
