So much agreement. So much. And yet... this stuff is popular. So there's something about it that is speaking and appealing to a pretty effing large group. I don't know how to feel about this.
Possibly I should quit depressing myself with Amazon reviews along the lines of:
"Anita's life just keeps getting more and more complicated and i love following this is a wonderful book and those who dont like it are probably just upset she gets yet another boy toy lol however it all makes sense anita doesn't even seem like a slut she is just well... anita lol WONDERFUL BOOK A MUST READ!!!!!!!!!!!"
(This entire thread is wonderfully fascinating and informative. I had no idea about half this stuff. Good to know.)
(And come to think of it, ignorance like mine is almost assuredly why LKH gets away with this presentation of the lifestyle. Being uninformed, readers -- er, the uninformed ones, of which I'd bet there are a majority -- are perfectly inclined to accept this unflattering and exploitative stuff as true-to-life.)
