Re: Oh Hum its a funny old world
If they make Bond black, bisexual, transgender....you know any of those things which are 'right on' then they take away the authors interpretation of the character.
Ian Fleming did not write it for any of those current, trendy social mores.
Undoubtedly those things existed in Flemings time, but they were not openly discussed or considered....some of them you could go to prison for....so they do not feature in his writings.
I am sick of the meddling, twiddling PC crowd. I wish they would disappear up their own hairy bum holes.
