Was the book good? Yes. Did my kids love it? Yes! Was the author a bisexual? I don’t know and I don’t care, contrary to those who would want to discredit her.
I honestly don’t know who would start this stuff but I DO know that conservatives wouldn’t give a crap about the author’s sexual preferences. They would say what good did you do. And this lady did GREAT GOOD with her story! God love her!
That is really the essence of Conservatism. That is what Liberals don’t understand —
Leave me alone. I won’t try to rule your life, or invade your bedroom, or drive you out of business. I don’t see any reason to rule over you. And all I ask is that you extend to me the same courtesy ...
Nope. Liberals can’t see that. Liberals just think we are Nazis and the only way to stop us to make rules about what we can say, what we can’t say, and what we have to say. Sigh.
One author I love is Willa Cather, early 20th century writer who died 1947. She wrote about pioneer women who helped settle the American west.
In reading her stories, which focused on women but had fine male characters as well, I had no inkling of the author’s sex life. She just told mighty fine stories.
Later I learned Cather was a lesbian. Couldn’t care less.
So what if she was a lesbian radical?
If you enjoy the children's stories, great.
Dr. Seuss apparently didn't like kids, either, and had none of his own.
He was a big pinko to boot.
I still read his stories to my son.
