I was a kid in the late 60s and all thru the 1970s and all I can say is this: fuck anyone who wants to hate on Bond because it's "misogynist"--particularly the old ones, and particularly if they weren't even a ZYGOTE when those were made and have no idea what ELSE was around back then.

As a kid, growing up, I remember those movies as being some of the very few things in the world at that time that had any badass women at all. Yeah, they all ended up in bed with him, and a lot of them didn't survive the movie, but they were THERE, and they had some agency, they served to advance the story rather than being there ONLY to be eye candy or a hero's reward. Bond needed their help rather often, and frankly?

James Bond, the ORIGINAL Star Trek, the Telzey Amberdon stories and many other similar things were what gave me hope as a kid, when most of the girls I knew were reading Harlequins or nurse books. No, they're not politically correct by today's standards, although the Craig ones are very different from the Connery ones, and if you don't love Judi Dench as M you have a screw loose--but they were more female badassery than I was getting from anywhere else in the 1968 (age 4)-1977 (age 13) era of my life.

And looking back I can see how "bad" they are in some respects, but they are a product of their time and they have value in that sense, and no-one who was born after 1982 can have any idea what they MEANT to some of us who were girls back then.
