Yea, the 70s and 80s era of free love is long over. The good ol days of the worst VD was cured by a shot in the butt.

The golden age of irresponsible f*&king was the mid 60s to the early 80s. Birth control pills came along in the 60s to free everyone up, and AIDS came along in the 80s to make that freedom deadly.

I was part of the 70's era of free love. Never had a shot in the butt.
Maybe I was lucky.

You were around in that era. Chicks were giving it away and it was not a deadly risk like it is in the age of AIDS, Hepatitis, or Herpes.

I have been married since the early 90s so it does not matter to me.

Yea, I understand the thread was about the actress that played a character with the most unlikely name ever. Remember James Bond's reply to her when he she introduced herself? That name was not just a typical Bond girl name.

Honor Blackman, trust me, was in no danger of getting or giving the clap from or to you middles.

She had the look, and, apparently, brains and dignity.

Nice write-up in the link.

I post a lot of pictures in Random Pics.
I post a lot in the Stijn thread, and the joke thread. If you remove those three threads from my total, I have just an average post count.

I work for myself, so no boss looking over my shoulder. I get my work done, and play on Pelican to keep me from taking a nap or just watching TV.

Pussy Galore was the leader of a band of all lesbian criminals in the Ian Flemming novel. They were trapeze artists taken to cat burglaries. There's your connection and it carried over into the film but they were transformed into a band of stunt pilots. Sorta lost the meaning there so people took it as something else.

Even then, the film character PG blocked all of Bond's advances until the last scene. Which is why Hollywood scripts are such as they are. Feel good, sell tickets.

In the book PG and Bond are the only survivors of a hi-jacked airliner crashed somewhere tropic and are rescued by boat where they have separate quarters. They do finish out the end of the book with a suggestive kiss.

The free sex of the hippie movement was not yet a phenomenon although its existence was becoming somewhat more popular at the time of release of "Goldfinger." Bear in mind that filming took place in 1963 and Woodstock was in '69.

Yes, those were explosive times but I don't think Pussy Galore was any part of it nor influenced any of it.

At 39, Blackman was actually five years older than Sean Connery and, at the time, the oldest actress ever to play a Bond girl.

"Most of the Bond girls have been bimbos," she once said. "I have never been a bimbo."
Served as a motorcycle dispatch rider in WWII.

Apparently...they can find me occupying a rather large space in your head.

She was of that generation. RIP sweet lady.

I remember being a kid and lining up on the side of the road to watch the Anzac day march.
There were always lots and lots of WW1 and WW2 veterans marching. It's not like that anymore.
With each passing year the Korea, Vietnam vets are thinning out but there are lots of young Afghan and Iraq vets.

I saw this story on CBS. They wouldn't even say her character's name. Just referred to her as a "Bond Girl".
