If I never see the word "SPUNG!" again, I'll die a happy woman. His books *were* sexist - every genius rocket-scientist woman of his rolled over as soon as one of his "supermen" whistled.
He liked them brainy, self-sufficient and running around buck naked serving the men happily while wearing high heels and getting pregnant. And apparently, our nipples are REALLY REALLY OBSESSIVELY IMPORTANT. (Thus the dreaded SPUNG!)
All of his Lazarus Long books were pretty much crap, except MAYBE Methuselah's Children which at least avoided the sexist crap.
Sure, I read them avidly as a teen, but it's so ridiculous when I read them as an adult....
