Sexuality is half poison and half liberation. What’s the line? I don’t have a line.
Interpretation
Sexuality can be both a source of pain and a path to freedom without clear boundaries.
In this quote, Lady Gaga expresses the complex nature of sexuality, highlighting how it can bring about feelings of entrapment and poison due to societal norms and personal struggles, while simultaneously offering liberation and self-expression.
