Picture the scene. You’re on the dance floor in a dimly lit club. All around you, people sway in unison, lasers illuminate euphoric faces, the DJ drops another track, triggering a frenzy of head-nodding.

Behind them, a gaggle of girls jostle for attention. Passing the DJs their drinks, rolling their cigarettes, rifling through their record bags. Does this sound familiar? It does to me because, for a time in my 20s, I was that girl.
