I'm not sexist, I'm just a realist.

I certainly don't recognise myself as the horrible sexist portrayed in media reports, and I don't think the women who have worked with me throughout my career do either.

The men I worked for didn't look at me as having any gender at all. They regarded me more as a workhorse.

I'm beginning to think I have two years encountering sexism without really realising it.

I don't think in a male or female way. I don't differentiate between male and female. I never have. I'm not considered a feminist.

I think of my gender as a part of my complex humanity.

I happen to have worked with male directors who don't understand women at all. Not at all. I'm flabbergasted by their ignorance.

Men are very competent in their workplace - and this is going to sound sexist - women are better at running households and juggling lots of things, kids and scheduling and that kind of thing.

I'm not a sexist. I believe if a man can to go work all his life, a woman can. Who am I to say, 'Don't do that because you're a girl?'
