...not The Smiths song, but exactly how much time I have left on my YHA internet access card...
Over two weeks into my tour of the north of New Zealand it has come to my attention that Naomi Wolfe has got herself into trouble. Not from the Establishment...not for attacking the beauty myth or saying that women should perhaps be treated with some respect...no, she's in trouble for saying rape should be treated like any other crime and that maybe the attack on Mr Wikileaks Assange might be just a tiny bit politcal. Heaven forbid that a woman should express an opinion that might be just a little at odds with the femmonazis...but then the kind of people outraged by Ms Wolfe's comments are all in favour of censorship aren't they?
Sadly the time is running out here in the Oputere YHA but watch this space for a fully fledged rant against the excessively politcally correct and the one-eyedly ignorant.
I may have to type it, complete with predictive text errors, on my little phone...don't hold your breath...
