‘If I Became a Sex’ — Poly Styrene Quote Tee | Wear Words Black-on-White Statement Shirt — Muscle Tank

“If I became a sex symbol, I would shave my head.” Poly Styrene told the press this during X-Ray Spex’s first run in 1977–78 — then kept the receipt, unwinding her turban at the Rock Against Racism concert in Victoria Park in 1978 to show she had done exactly what she promised. She wrote her own escape clause in advance: set the terms of your image before anyone else can set them for you.
