I'm currently reading this book, and find that I can't put it down. I read "To Sail Beyond the Sunset" late last year - and discovered what an outstanding writer he was - on the strength of that novel I bought a LOT of Heinlein's later novels.
Heinlein, as far as I know, was definitely not a misogynistic man! As a feminist, I recognize he wrote with what he'd learnt from history, what he saw around him, how women were treated in his society and therefore he couldn't not create a character that embodied all of this, in a future society as Heinlein saw society becoming century from his time Overall, I really liked the book, the way taboos are explored and the society is criticized, and the truly scientific part of this science fiction novel
i watched a video today of a pregnant officer in a fist fight with a crack head. luckily there was a bystander nearby who was able to subdue the suspect.. thanks alot
