i dont want my words to be taken out of context
i dont want to be infantilized because i refuse to be sexualized
i dont want to be molested at shows or on the street by people who perceive me as an object that exists for their personal satisfaction
i dont want to live in a world where im gonna have to start employing body guards because this kind of behavior is so commonplace and accepted and I’m pissed that when I express concern over my own safety it’s often ignored until people see firsthand what happens and then they apologize for not taking me seriously after the fact…

Well, cool we had warning. But, damn what an amazing man and musician. And sweet that Robbie got to see him before he died. Am sure he had many apologies to make.
Rock legend Levon Helm has died at the age of 71 following a battle with cancer. According to a message published on Helm’s official website, the Band drummer and Grammy-winning solo artist “passed peacefully this afternoon. He was surrounded by family, friends and band mates and will be remembered by all he touched as a brilliant musician and a beautiful soul.”
The Woodstock, NY-based Helm was diagnosed with throat cancer in the late ’90s and for a period was unable to sing. But he eventually recovered his voice and in 2007 released the acclaimed Grammy-winning album Dirt Farmer.
