I think she did a really good job playing Janis Ian.

[@darkcylander]

a little off subject, but yes

[@peperruti]

I agree 100%. There are just these moments in life in which your parents take action and we just take that to heart for the rest of our life's.

[@mistressfannypack9184]

I feel like I just walked into her therapy session

[@AggressiveBeagle]

All these interviews are going for the whole therapy secession vibe I think

[@AggressiveBeagle]

+Brad Smart *session

[@mistressfannypack9184]

I don't even like answering these sort of questions at my therapists office let alone on camera

[@rly_11166]

To y'all saying she's giving "I'm not like other girls." Y'all definitely don't know her(I mean I also don't, personally) but her statement is completely different to those pick me girls, she's just saying how parents really does have a big impact on their kids personality, mindset, and preference. I wish my mom raised me like how her mom did.

I remember seeing someone's interview- might have been an article- where they first came upon a similar statement of 'teach girls the same as boys' and they said it kind of screwed their head up for a while because up to that point they had not been aware that as a girl they were supposed to act differently or that their experiences with others were different due to their gender.

[@NellieKAdaba]

Gina Contratto Great topic.

[@moomoopuppy5810]

That was a really cool top. I love the dried mud bed design.

[@johnbrooke6867]

The world needs more of these chics...big time. I would love to have a girl friend/wife that is like Lizzy in regards to just doing what she wants without the need to fit into some sort of role that society has made up. Nobody has to be Ken or Barbie...nor should they waste time trying to be unless that's their true calling.

[@whatsupp5421]

I wonder who is that one person who disliked the video

[@antonio-a-atienza-iii_born1979]

Lizzy was born in 1982, now 35, and I was born in 1979, am now 38, as her face is a kind of my face and Jennifer Connelly and Winona Ryder's faces, face that is an insubjectively pretty looking looker, and she's included in one of the most beautiful lookers in the Hollywood history.

[@Angie_flores]

Shes so awesome 😍

[@NellieKAdaba]

Interesting

[@ajdind136]

Ur uGly

[@CraigArndt]

She's got her head screwed on straight it seems, sounds like her Mom was a good parent.

[@yuantronz45]

Why does she have the same sleepy buggy eyes as Samantha Vinograd??? Are they from the same tribe??.

[@shawnmercado2219]

It kinda makes you wonder though, were the kids embracing the opposite gender roles because their mother allowed it and they were naturally inclined? Or because on some level they learned that it pleased her to do so, and displeased her to be traditional

[@clintrichardsonclintfromny203]

If she were a child now, they would see to it.

[@ganon_t99]

Hud, i don't feel so good!

[@mkwhovian]

Too soon

[@Spindacre]

:-(

[@jeremytulagan3795]

Useless bitch who holds camera till the end..... Useleeessss

[@StanleyKubick1]

the sport she mentions is incidentally a team sport that requires like twenty other players to make up a full team. if no girls felt safe expressing that side of them, there would be no team, so apparently her experience isn't that unique

[@Hassony523]

Why is this in black and white? Are they stuck in 1940's?

[@dannyrivera8300]

Damn she still look good af 🤤 ...

[@aliamalik442]

'Im not like other girls'

[@mudbutt234]

Thank god she's not. RAAAAAAWR!

[@CinnCity78]

She's so theatrical. Does she ever turn it off🙄

[@theshion005]

Why do you say that?

[@parkergreaves9975]

CinnCity78 if you don't like it why are u watching this

[@philochristos]

Thank goodness she grew up before the crazy era when parents started thinking it was smart to let their kids choose their own gender and give them hormones and stuff. She could've been really screwed up.

[@fiddah]

We should be thankful to ALLAH. ALLAH Knows what is best for each of us.
