if you want women writers go down the hall

Buffy: A Guide, but no water or food. So it leads me to the sacred place and then a week later it leads you to my bleached bones? Giles: Buffy, really. It takes more than a week to bleach bones.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ha!

David Gilmour isn't sexist. He just wasn't paying attention to what he was saying to the interviewer because he was also having an important conversation in French. [link]

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I mean, I’m the only guy in North America who teaches Truman Capote
....what? Surely this is not possible.

Important conversations are always held in French, of course.
I hate this guy a little more every day.

[The guy from his publisher] was concerned that this was going to affect the general climate around the book, that some women might not like the book if they think that that’s my policy. And that’s one of the reasons that I’m apologizing. Normally I actually wouldn’t.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
"This was an interview I gave sort of over the shoulder. I was having a conversation, in French, with a colleague while this young woman was doing this interview. So these were very much tossed-off remarks."
"This is what comes out of my mouth when I don't have time to filter myself. Had I been paying attention to the young woman I'd agreed to let interview me, I surely would have pretended not to be such an assface."

Also:
I think anybody who teaches Truman Capote cannot be attacked for being an anti-anything.
I'm just gonna let that one stand on its own.
