It's difficult for me to work with women, because I find that direct references are made back to me too fast. Working with men, it gives it a little distance.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
All my life, I've been working with male directors, which I've really enjoyed. And I'm lucky in that I've worked with men who have a lot of respect for women. But working with a woman is a different experience. It feels like the communication is different.
I have never worked for a woman, and I have never worked with a lot of women.
I've always tried to be conscious of how I represent women in my work. They don't have to be good or strong women, but they have to be complex.
Overall, women are a lot more fun to work with than a bunch of men.
There are still people who have an issue working with a woman director. Women can be viewed as 'difficult' even though they work in the same way as men.
The difference between working with a man and a woman... is immense.
Whatever you got you have to accentuate. I ran my female card up and down the ladder my whole career, because I was in a man's world. It was worked by women but owned by men. I was the only female owner in my field at that time.
The imaginative leap for me of writing for women is no more difficult than the one of writing for men. I've always wanted to have women well represented in the work that I've done because I've always been around them and around the way they look at the world.
I've been used by women all my life, fortunately.
I'm not telling women to be like men. I'm telling us to evaluate what men and women do in the workforce and at home without the gender bias.
