I don't think it was a "writer" who accused me. Nor do I feel compelled to defend myself against anonymous charges of homophobia. I used the quote on purpose because he is one of my favorite writers and I think his ideas about "value" vs. price speak to his early ideas about socialism and human rights. Humans include women. I write little "on accident" and I am nowhere near as stupid as the men's rights advocates and incels state. I am a leftist and have been fighting to earn a living, provide for my family, and express myself for my entire life. You see what the "other side" is from their comments here which are far better than I could "describe."
