In Reply to: Have you never met a self-absorbed person of a "lower" class? posted by Victor Khomenko on November 14, 2006 at 09:52:44:
I must agree with Victor on this, tin...As a teacher of low-income students in Shreveport, Louisiana (how low? One asked if I were rich because, after all, I "came to school in clean pants every day!"), I find that they can be just as self-absorbed as the women in "Persona", hell, just as self-absorbed as me. Class and wealth should not be used as an indicator of a person's worth.
Besides, I can sit through a lot of rich neurotic self-absorbtion for that monologue! At least we agree there!
