STARSHIP TROOPERS, Part 1: HEINLEIN | Brows Held High

LISTEN UP YOU APES! This is the first of a three part series. CORRECTIONS: - Heinlein’s Navy isn’t all female, the positions of starship pilot were prioritized for women. - during the lead-in to the Fanon part I say “Juan Rico“ when I meant to refer to Ramon Magsaysay-likely the inspiration for the character - I fail to mention that the 3rd act of Stranger in a Strange Land is about Smith founding a sex cult - I also don’t mention the 2nd alien race from the book, The Skinnies, because they seemed pretty irrelevant to the topic - I didn’t show enough of Michael’s cats. So sorry. More information to follow.
