When I left the RAF, I was stunned to discover that no-one in civvy street needed any submarines hunted but they didn't, so I retrained. I don't see the difference, apart from the fact that Fatima might get the chance to go back to ballet.
Sometimes I wonder if the people who profess to take offence or be dismayed at these things really do think that way or whether they just choose to say they do to give themselves a feeling of importance or significance in the world. It is my deep suspicion that they actually do not think at all, they merely parrot something that one journalist cooked up for the sake of a headline.
Either way, I'm glad my mind doesn't work (or fail to work) in that way.
Now, do you think it's too late for me to retrain as a dancer?
