Male Characters Quotes

I like to make all my characters interesting. Be they male, female or creatures unknown Picture Quote #1

Like most little girls, I found the lure of grown-up accessories astonishing - lipstick, perfume, hats and gloves. When I write female characters in my historical novels, getting these details right is vital Picture Quote #1

There’s a remarkable amount of sexism on TV. When male characters are flawed, they’re interesting, deep and complex. But when female characters are flawed, they’re just a mess. It’s good to put more flawed but interesting female characters out there because it promotes equality Picture Quote #1

Often, as a young actress, you find yourself being the only girl in a room full of men... and one of the reasons why I like ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ is because they have such strong female characters and the women really drive this show Picture Quote #1

Should men and women be equal in all things? Absolutely. But I’m old-fashioned in that I like the differences between the sexes. My male characters are neither Neanderthals nor Prince Charmings. They’re flawed Picture Quote #1

I tell about some of the female characters from the Bible so girls can be inspired and empowered and uplifted Picture Quote #1

Friends With Benefits’: it feels like a two-hander to me, but it is a big movie, and this is the first straightforward male I’ve been able to play.

Novels without female characters were a lifeless desert Picture Quote #1

I've always had difficulties with female characters Picture Quote #1

What if all the male characters posed like the female one Picture Quote #1
