A refreshing read! Look at Bond on his merits and not his demerits.

I'm sure there's a certain group of people who would still take offence to such a suggestion. I don't know if Bond should be a role model of sorts, but acknowledging a sexual appetite is healthy and natural to male millennials would do much to diffuse anti-social behaviour, in my opinion.

Nice to see an article in today's media that doesn't smugly shit all over Fleming, Bond et al.

Nice. As CJB notes, good to see Fleming isn't rubbished. A refreshing change in this century.
