Just been reading John Birminghams Axis of Time books about a group of American, British and other warships from 2021 that get sent back to 1942 when an experiment goes wrong. The 42's treat the crews as pretty much aliens by calling them the N-bomb, kykes, wops etc, and having females as captains of warships is so outrageous that they talk about kicking them all off and replacing them with "proper crews".
When you think that it's only just over 60 years ago that I would HATE to be sent back there. OK so I am a white male so it wouldn't be that bad for me but the attitudes back then are so outrageous to me that I would hate it. I do love this one bit where a female lieutenant gets up to brief a mixed audience of 42ers and 21century peeps and one of the 42ers wolf whistles her... her response is...
Sure enough, a wolf whistle greeted her when she took the podium. If she was supposed to giggle and blush at that provocation, somebody was in for a shock. Lieutenant De Marco fixed the offender with a frigid stare.
“Do you have a particularly small penis, sir? Is that why you feel the need to compensate for your inadequacies with this behavior? If so, let me assure you, it didn’t work. You still have a very small penis, and now you look like an idiot, too.”
De Marco’s shipmates exploded into hoots of laughter. The whistler and his buddies didn’t really know where to look, and settled on a range of more or less shit-eating grins as their response. The lieutenant’s microcelebrity grew just that little bit more potent.
Really enjoying these books even though I hate how bigotted the 42ers seem to be regarding anyone who is not male and white.
