It's incredibly misogynist to tell me I can only write a certain type of woman. Because that's saying women must be a certain type of person. That puts us back to the Stone Age-like women are saints and therefore not human and if we stray beyond that model, we'll be severely punished. It denies us any humanity. It doesn't even bother me. It just bounces off me. It's such a ridiculous notion that my novels are misogynist because I don't write the kind of women you want. (Gillian Schieber Flynn)
