Oh my god, I don't think I have ever laughed so hard reading LiveJournal in my life. You are the light of my night, you know that?
You know, I was very much into Ms. Behn when I was in Lit because, yes, she was a woman, and a smart one at that and because she was what I considered a raging and rabid feminist.
And then it struck me that of the works that I had read half was about either playing man and the other about letting things go with a "boys will be boys" attitude. She offers some interesting bits in terms of erotica, but as far as revolutionizing the world of feminine literature, eh, skip to the French.
