To summarize a recent article in the New York Times: the life of a white man is a difficult one, especially if he’s an “artist, very successful.” This great composer suffered through three whole marriages to women who failed to cater sufficiently to his needs. Now, at last, he’s found someone who will – by her own CHOICE!! CHOICE!! CHOICE!!, of course. It speaks to his enduring kindness and compassionate grace that “the terms they negotiated at the start of their relationship do not prevent her from pursuing her own professional and personal life.”
