Frankly, the man wasn’t going to rise from the dead to harass anyone, so that explanation makes it sound like the university is catering to nervous Nellies which is false.

If you think coming out excuses people acting like assholes at any point in their lives and continuing to do so with their new partner, btw, I see that you and she are two peas in a pod.

Thank-you for explaining.

Wow!!!

Fine :D How have you been? I read that comment with the cat and well over 100 degree heat and wondered how you and she are managing.

I keep reading about this. With so many people mentioning it, you know it’s true. Sad!

Be reasonable. If you let a woman speak how can you admire her nice lipstick and, most importantly, hear the sound of your own voice? Priorities, people.

Gasp!Elitist!

Well, it isn’t the center of the universe: New York City.

I’ll say this thread us wild.

Not for someone who loves desolate, cold landscapes and northern lights. ;-)

I have an ax to grind because my eyes and ears work when I watch an author and a host discussing a book and what came of it? OK.

Of course, tundra like places are very beautiful in their own way.

I don’t see where he weighed in on this one way or the other.

Who was assuming this? Wasn’t everyone who read her book and helped her promote it, falling over themselves with delight that her autobiographical life journey led to her finding her soulmate, Nunes?

The kicker is that she wants credit for putting everything on hold but that’s not what she did. She took the summer off: you know, the time when book clubs don’t meet so they don’t invite speakers and daytime talk shows put on reruns so they don’t invite novelists to discuss their books? Big sacrifice. Now that summer…

For someone who pretends upthread that she hated Gilbert’s book you seem to be awfully invested in defending her.

Stop being a presumptuous ninny, no one cares whether the next person Gilbert uses as book fodder is a man or a woman, just that it’s obviously heading in that direction. Again.

Sounds about right, you know what they say happens if your only tool is a hammer...

Yes and journalists too. The thing us that their legs aren’t seen on camera in most cases and even if you did, if someone is wearing a jacket, how could you tell that their jeans weren’t just a pair of navy pants?
