New article by Camille Paglia, the love of my life, in, of all places, the very right-wing FrontPage Magazine. The article is about the recent debate between Andrew Sullivan and Richard Goldstein at the New School.
Paglia's choice to be published in a hysterically conservative magazine is an odd one, but the good thing is that it will alert conservative readers to the fact that they need to choose between the libertarian and the authoritarian wings of conservativism. Paglia's explicit support of "the transgendered", as she puts it, should show readers the difference between her civil libertarianism and FrontPage's typically regressive authoritarian politics.
