You cannot talk like this about any other minority in America.

And if it was any other president’s adviser who said something like this about any other minority, it’d be the instant end of their presidency.

β€œOf course,” Astrid says with great professionalism. β€œThere are many wonderful women-loving-women stories to choose from. Do you have any other parameters for me to narrow the search for you? Do you like stories set on the high sea? In the Old West? Or maybe with a speculative element, you know, like—” β€œLike in Barbarella?” Gus Anderson’s eyes light up. Astrid has only the vaguest impression of a young Jane Fonda in a skimpy outfit on the Barbarella movie poster, an image that serves the male gaze as its raison d’Γͺtre. β€œComparable titles in the sense that these stories are also set in the future, or in space, or sometimes both,” she says firmly. β€œWould you like some recommendations?” β€œAbsolutely.” The old man sounds giddy. β€œBring them on.” Astrid writes down This Is How You End the Time War and Gideon the Ninth for him, and then personally takes him to the stacks to retrieve The Stars Are Legion, by Kameron Hurley. β€œThere isn’t a single man in this book. Everybody on this planet is a woman.” β€œOh, my!” Gus Anderson, his head probably brimming with images of thousands of chicks making out with one another for his delectation, checks out the book and leaves happily.
