Tracye4d2055c1ec04bf92575642aae6698bc52f8f12a1223In this reader response to the moralistic condemnation of Blondes in a prior editorial in the same newspaper, the writer defends GPB by pointing to its satirical elements and its condemnation of a culture where prostitution has become a general state of affairs: "The condition she has so unaffectedly caught is by no means confined to prostitutes--or even to semi-prostitutes. It is a widespread attitude of mind--a sign of the times, as your writers truly says, but a sign of the commercialized times, as he carefully does not say."
