I just feel as though reading this book that's about women's stories about men, I'm struck by how it's been out, I don't know, two weeks. I'm struck by how many people have said to me, what about the men? What about the men's stories? Which is what Trevor is doing. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

But no, because, but anyway, it doesn't matter because I'm, it just struck me because I think that there is a kind of expectation we have, I think, that in reading that we, maybe even unconsciously, That we still look for the men, if that makes sense.
