Even After A Century...

The thing I love about this picture of Simone de Beauvoir is even though I think it is deplorable to catch a woman from behind (as was featured by the Le Nouvel Observateur in recognition of what would have been her 100th birthday), I applaud de Beauvoir for being able to strike up controversy even now and am thankful for the, ahem, exposure that will get people to Google her who do not aleady know about how remarkable she is.

Am I alone in believing the worst ism is and always ill be sexism?
