what i want to say? Thank you for the opportunity, by the way
. As a woman, and former journalist (I did it for 14 years in London and had a career, now i am a press officer), like many journalists, I was originally drawn to do it because I truly and unequiviocally, believe in free speech and the freedom for any of our colleagues around the world to do that, freely, acerbically, caustically, and kindly - whatever they fancy without mercy.
That is journalism.
If Milo wants to speak out on any subject, I tend to support his right. Like for example, early sexual awakening (which I experienced myself when i was 14 and there was nothing whatsoever paedophilic in his views once he clarified them, im glad people understood). You know there is an Urban rock and roll thread where i go into detail on my views of early sexualisation, by the way, Urbans keep up! I dont agree with everything Milo says but essentially he is expressing himself very much in the spirit of what
Oscar Wilde talked about what - 125 years ago. True freedom of journalism being important. Nothing Milo says, offends me, or any woman i know, by the way (they all love him!)
If Milo were to quip Oscar Wildes words today, I wonder what people would say ' All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does. That's his.'
