Dec 31, 2015 at 4:33	comment	added	morewry		@dunraven One of the other answers mentions the context of his time and the constraints of commercial success with some interesting points. These works are pretty freaking old, and that obviously affects the author's subjectivity (though I think it's still responsible, fair, and fun to analyze from a modern perspective). The idea that Heinlein-the-individual might have been more challenging, but couldn't be if he wanted to sell is interesting--and possibly there's some truth in it, but shrug possibly not, too.
Dec 31, 2015 at 4:27	comment	added	morewry		@Martha Oh, maybe because I posted some of it in the comments on another answer. But I had more to say, so I made a longer post out of it.
Dec 31, 2015 at 4:24	comment	added	dunraven		Thanks for this answer - it's thoughtful, balanced, but most of all doesn't let RAH off the hook for the problematic aspects of his work without discounting the value they do hold. And also speaks to my experience reading Stranger in a Strange Land sometime in the 2000s and not understanding why it couldn't take the next easy step into actual inclusion and equality, especially for LGBTQIA+ folks.
