Whatever ... love is love : questioning the labels we give ourselves
Bello, Maria, 1967-2015
Books
The acclaimed actress and dedicated activist, Maria Bello, shares her personal journey of discovery, and destroys outdated ideas about partnership, love and family that will resonate with anyone in an unconventional life situation. In this book, she examines the idea of partnership in every woman's life, and her own. She examines the myths that so many of us believe about partnership - that the partnership begins when the sex begins, that partnerships are static, that you have to love yourself before you can be loved, and turns them on their heads. Bello explores how many different relationships - romantic, platonic, spiritual, familial, educational - helped define her life. She encourages women to realize that the only labels we have are the ones we put on ourselves, and the best, happiest partnerships are the ones that make your life better, even if they don't fit the mold of 'typical'.
