I dislike America-bashing--or that of any country--because the thinking is just so easy. The war is all about oil! American press is too monolithic! The French are cheese-eating cowards who send Americans to fight their wars! Simplistic platitudes that stymie insight and thoughtful discussion. It's frustrating, because I sometimes feel as a "good liberal" I'm expected to bash the Big Bad American Bully more. [Expletive deleted] that. America's a great country and as a feminist I'm damn glad I grew up here. Things are a lot worse for women in some other countries.
Aw. Aw! Thanks. I'll be out there soon--As You Like It is taking up a lot of my time right now.
