Aimee Mann:
And also, I really felt like this is really in my wheelhouse. I was born in 1960. I know what it was like to be a woman in 1968. I know the kinds of things men said about women. And the persistent underestimation of their intellectual capacity. No one told you that you can be whatever you want. And if you go against that system, your behavior can be interpreted by a doctor who’s diagnosing you in 15 minutes as you know you’re crazy for not accepting the reality of the world you live in, but you’re like, “Yeah, but that’s a crazy world. That says, like, I’m – I can’t do things just because I’m a woman or because, you know, I want to be a writer,” which was Susanna Kasen’s thing. , you know, is something essentially wrong with her because she wanted to be a writer? I mean, that’s crazy. So, I feel crazy just talking about it.
