I am not angry about them. But I notice how I didn't notice these things before. I changed.
I certainly did not mean to imply that you were personally angry - it was meant as a general comment...
My noticing of such things in books from the past has been there for a while, but I think it developed gradually. It connects with my observations on how SF books have changed, to the point where women in charge or gay Starship commanders are now commonplace - a huge difference to the "golden age"...

Could not get into it despite a couple of tries ....not my cuppa.
Still an emotional wreck from a late night double feature of The Bombardment and The Railway Man.....
Additionally, during the filming of Blindspot, Alexander experienced many injuries, including: ruptured C6 and C7 discs from being water boarded; herniated T3, T4, T8 and T9 discs; broken nose; dislocated right shoulder; broken right index finger; broken left foot; broken left two toes three times; broken right foot; broken right two toes; dislocated jaw; and other injuries that she was not allowed to disclose.[26]
In March 2018, Alexander was hospitalized and underwent surgery after her appendix ruptured. She later recovered.[27]
Also in 2012, Alexander suffered severe injuries when she slipped off a metal staircase during a rainy morning on the Thor: The Dark World set. The fall caused her to slip a disc in her thoracic spine and chip 11 of her vertebrae, as well as dislocate her left shoulder and tear a rhomboid on her right side. The injuries took her out of filming for a month.[24][25]
Watching the entire Star Wars cycle in movie chrono instead of release date and realized I had not seen III
Padme was luscious as she was in II....a late teen/early 20 Natalie Portman is just luscious ...even one of the 60 year old directors admitted to a crush on her....which he did nothing about but still she's
true story very well crafted
