After receiving tons of questions as to why she decided to remove the rings from her neck permanently, the metaphorical explanation she said simply that she could not stand being isolated anymore, she had a hard time functioning while wearing the rings – she could not simply go out alone without being interrupted by a citizen or a press.

Sydney still claimed that she deserved to be tagged as the one and only “giraffe woman.” Despite all the hardships and pain she experienced because of the copper rings that used to coil around her neck, everything she did before would always be a part of who she is now. She will never be ashamed of what was in the past.
