Now that's the Heinlein I thought I knew
He was born in Butler, MO, 30 miles north of my birthplace (Nevada, MO).
That's a great article and so right. When some wannabe reviewer writes a derog on someone like Heinlein, it has to be that they feel little beside his very tall shadow.
Heinlein a chauvinist. I could rebut that I'd have to stop laughing first. Anyone who has read him knows he practically revered women (as well men should *jk*).
I find myself aligned with a lot of the opinions he wrote in his novels. Particularly the one about when a society requires identification cards, it's time to move on (don't remember the exact wording, although I could look it up--it was from Time Enough for Love, my favorite). Unfortunately, no one has discovered another planet yet.
