Several years ago, when she was a talk radio host out here in the Los Angeles area (this during her very liberal period), I still enjoyed listening to her.
Unlike the rest of the herd, she always possessed a great sense of humor and was downright entertaining....no fasting in shifts for her!
Oh yeah - she was also pretty close to falling into the "total babe" category - unlike 99% of Lesbians.
If she's lesbian, it sure doesn't show up with the usual, expected attitudes in her writing.
And by the way, I've read quite a few Camille Paglia columns, and I agree with her about a lot of things except her atheism and lesbianism -- but those are her property. What is interesting about this column is, it is the first time I have ever heard of a gay or lesbian person condemning child molesters.
Wonder where she stands on pederasty, and on exposing kids, tweenagers, and teenagers to deviant leadership models such as policemen, teachers, and churchmen?
My own position, for the sake of clarification, is that homosex certainly isn't good for you, but that the far greater damage occurs when kids are scandalized or, worse, instructed to accept deviant behavior, in others or in themselves, as morally value-free. I've always felt that the Velvet Underground worked to propagate that message, to help their more adventurous bretheren get over on straight kids. That's male sexuality -- straight men don't care whether women are straight, gay, bi, or asexual, as long as they'll lie down. Gay men, ditto and double ditto -- their ethics should never be trusted around young men and boys, and the statistics on pederastic contact in a non-complaisant social background, i.e. non-"overhauled" America to date, back that statement up.
Please see the thread:
Agreed.
Exposure to homosexuality sodomizes a child's soul
When the movie Philadelphia came out nine years ago last spring, TIME and Newsweek both jumped on the "gay-rights" bandwagon and ran special issues the same week devoted to the HRC crusade, on the pretext of reviewing the movie. One of the articles recounted how a liberal cabal in a small New England fishing port had passed a gay-friendly "anti-discrimination" ordinance, which was then the object of a rollback referendum. The article ridiculed one couple who were leading the referendum election campaign, noting that the proof of their homophobia came oozing out of them when they started talking about how in their opinion gays were on the edge of demanding the right to marry each other and to adopt children. They were prophetic, but the journalistic ice pick writing the article used their insight against them and falsely painted them as "phobes" and "haters".
Meanwhile, the gay political leadership has emphasized maintaining a united front among deviants, following Marx and the mass-party 19th-century communists, and has maintained solidarity with the worst pervs by refusing to criticize the indefensible. I think the real reason is that the leaders are indeed, as Bruce says, committed to a goal of forcing society to accept any number of deviant practices, including pederasty and pedophilia, as "normal".
I'm glad to see Tammy Bruce break ranks with all that -- I guess she needed fresh air. I haven't seen Camille Paglia's opinion of Greek-style pederasty, but IIRC she has already condemned pedophiles.
