"After reading a very interesting book called Why Men Don’t Listen And Women Can’t Read Maps, I have realized that men and women are physiologically different, and therefore you can make certain generalisations about them. What I liked about that book is that it recognises our similarities, even as it acknowledges that we are not identical. It doesn’t make a case for inequality."

"Everything feels impossible until it happens. The #MeToo movement was revolutionary because it made real, in a sudden and irreversible way, a world that previously lived only in the minds of the most radical. In Believe Me, a roster of the most perceptive and fearless writers working today look at #MeToo and beyond: what could this world look like if we believed women the first time, if we didn’t punish women for speaking the truth, if we centered women in their own stories, if we allowed ourselves to imagine radical models of care and justice and then acted to make them real?"
