“I always felt like I was a little bit of everything,” Palmer said during a refreshingly vulnerable speech while accepting a Vanguard Award.
“The video represents the young woman today–it’s not the traditional woman anymore–and not the specifics of ‘Am I gay? Am I straight? Am I bi?’ I’m making the rules for myself, and I don’t have to be stuck down to one label,” she told“So often, I lead with masculinity. And as a woman, I’ve always been met with so much disdain, you know what I mean?” Palmer continued. “I think so much of that came from who I thought I had to be to get respect, admiration, and love.
“Why did my gender have to define the power I have in the world? And why does my gender get to decide my sexuality?” she asked, apparently getting choked up. “You know, since I was younger, I always questioned the boxes I was forced to be in and it starts with who you’re supposed to be as a child. You’re supposed to be as a Black person or whatever the background you are from...Then those walls just try to cave you in from every damn angle, who you are as a creative, who you are as a friend.
