But a woman, from the moment she wakes up to the moment she goes out for dinner...
She changes all the time.
She can change the color of her hair.
She can curl her hair.
She can put lipstick on her lips and makeup or no makeup.
And for me, it was something extraordinary.
It was a way also to...
to resist to the monotony of life.
And I had this idea that, yeah, being a woman is hard, and I will have a lot of obstacles in front of me, but I can disguise all the time.
I can look like someone else.
I can decide who I want to be.
I can be Roman, Moroccan, femme fatale, Gerson, Androgyne.
And I thought that for a man, it was not the same.
Yeah, and it's also, you know, something that I use as a writer because if you want to find the right disguise, you have to observe very much, to observe little details, how people act, the way they wear their clothes.
You know, their bag and things like, very like jewelry and things like this.
So I love also that, how you observe.
And then, you know, if you spend time in Paris on a terrace looking at women.
When I arrived at the age of 17, I was very intimidated by Parisian women.
I was like, I will never be like them.
They are so beautiful and they look so effortless.
