And if a man suggests a male author to you (and of course he will), don’t be afraid to state proudly, loudly, and without hesitation: “I only read women.” And when he presses, or criticizes, or whines for a reason, don’t be afraid to tell him: “Because I want to.” You owe him no other reason. You owe him nothing at all.
