The bottom line is that female writers aren't being given enough opportunities by male producers.

There are a lot more female writers wanting to direct their own material and hopefully will be given the opportunity.

The voices of women need to be heard. The volume needs to be turned up.

Some very plausible stuff is being written by women in a way that most men are not doing.

Nobody is surprised that women writers accurately represent male characters over and over again, no doubt because everybody knows that women understand men much better than vice-versa.

Women are more skilled than men at making gossip entertaining.

Male and female gossip also sounds different, as women use more animated tones, more detail and more feedback.

I don't think that women necessarily always write like women. I was a writer on the 'Comedy Central Roasts' for a while, and I always wrote the jokes that people assumed the men would write.

It is difficult to get men to pick up a female author. Women will read men, but men won't read women.

Women are more complicated communicators than men, who have a tendency to pronounce and bloviate, and that makes for better writing in talky work.
