Letter: Behaving badly
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: No, Suzanne Moore, it is not "fine for men to be shameless shaggers and hustlers" ("So why is it all right for men to grow old disgracefully?", 1 October). Instead of championing vulgarity in women you should consider chastising the braying coarseness of some men, stirred on by the money- hungry media.
Dignity and wisdom are generally regarded as admirable and desirable. At present however, the media seem to be able to call the shots on what is worthwhile behaviour. Pleas for the further coarsening of women will not make them, or our society, any happier.
