One More Thing on the Cute-Conservative Ugly-Liberal Issue…

As a modern culture,
we are coming perilously close to codifying a taboo against exceptionalism. This soft prohibition against noticing one woman is more gorgeous than another, or that conservative women are more appealing than liberal women, is simply the visible tip of the dorsal fin of something much, much larger. And dangerous.
This country has now spent generations worshiping at the alter of weakness, deliberately mixing up superior achievement with substandard achievement. It’s been making safety nets into hammocks. -- House of Eratosthenes

Quibble: Can no one today, with the exception of us aging Catholics, manage to spell altar? (An additional dorsal fin, perhaps.)
