Talks often about the "tomboy myth" as if the women couldn't have actually been interested in riding, hunting, archery, etc.

Joseph Anton: A Memoir
By Salmon Rushdie
9780812992786 633p
Only one real issue I had, page 520 when he seems to blame Princess Di's death on herself because she didn't want her photo taken. Meanwhile he's 1- in hiding, 2- has just married a woman who doesn't want her picture taken and he supports that, and 3- is under a death threat because he won't just apologize. He's staying true to himself under an actual threat of death but has a problem with Princess Di staying true to herself. Either both of them are to blame for their circumstances or neither is. I'm going with the latter.
