There are so many places where I wonder if things would have been different for her, but her sexual identity is a big one. I do think she had a biochemical problem, but it's really hard to tell when there's such a huge divide between a person and the role they feel they have to play.
Oh, I think she had a brain chemistry problem too; I just wanted the biographer to go on from there to synthesize a bit more on how the culture her parents belonged to/raised her in was totally not conducive to her being either the Artist! she wanted to be, or to figuring out her sexual identity.
