And then they were worried about, you know, how are we going to respond to that?

I'm not going to respond to any of this because people will always have something to say about what we wear, our headscarf to our jeans.

And I'm like, that's never going to happen.

Typing, speaking, whatever you call it, the look that she gives you.
