Subject: Does that make sense?! Please! I am in awe of your eloquence and passion here -- and your posts are always as clever and witty as the man we're all gathering here to converse about. And as usual, you've zeroed in on the things I've been trying to figure out too. >>>>

The stableyard 'aftermath' still doesn't really make sense to me, in spite of the discussions here, and Herself's own detailed exegesis. I haven't had the nerve to call attention to this one scene with my "GBF" though, since I'm still hoping he'll read more of the book and give me his reaction without having me steer it towards anything in particular.

And no, the revulsion isn't an historical artifact, but now we have constructed complicated layers of political correctness so sometimes the revulsion/phobia is cloaked and oppressive attitudes are expressed in less direct ways than hurling insults and/or fists.
