I like Camille Paglia’s style, even when I disagree with her I have to give her props for not taking crap from anybody and always speaking forthrightly. Very interesting lady. Even if her lifestyle and beliefs include some that are quite different from mine, she calls a spade a f**king shovel, which I admire.
She is the only post-1968 era liberal for whom I have some respect, and yes, she holds a lot of views that differ quite a bit from my own.
Well said, and I think it’s exactly how she would have put it herself.
It’s a shame so many FReepers feel they must live in an echo chamber where only conservative thoughts are expressed, what a rich opportunity they miss to gain insight to reinforce and fine-tune their own beliefs by ignoring people like Paglia who hold different views, but are intellectually honest and don’t simply spew ideological verbage.
