The only thing I'd tell Maude, if she was here, is that she runs the risk of sounding a little anti-man at times, don't you agree? All the husbands in her novels are stupid, insensitive, faithless individuals with murky pasts, empty heads, micro-penises and questionable morals. But I suppose she had a good imagination, as all writers must, and she was simply making things up.
The speaker comments that Maude, if present, might appear somewhat anti-man, as her novels depict husbands as dull, unfaithful, and morally questionable characters. This portrayal seems exaggerated, possibly reflecting the writer's creative imagination rather than reality.
The speaker acknowledges that Maude's writing is fictional and that her vivid imagination allows her to craft such characters. Despite the critical tone, there's an understanding that these depictions are part of her storytelling, not a reflection of real life.
