Quote by Dee Dee Myers
Washington is still very much a male-oriented culture. Being from Los Angeles, I think it is less so there - there is less attachment to tradition, perhaps, there is more flexibility, more acceptance of change generally. That is partly because of Hollywood.
Summary
This quote suggests that the culture in Washington, D.C. is heavily dominated by traditional male perspectives. In contrast, the speaker, being from Los Angeles, believes that their city has a less rigid and more adaptable culture. They attribute this difference to the influence of Hollywood, implying that the entertainment industry encourages openness to change and promotes a more diverse and flexible mindset in Los Angeles compared to Washington, D.C. The quote thus highlights the contrasting cultural environments and suggests a greater acceptance of change in one city over the other.
