When I first started doing the 00# numbering system for this, I planned that this email, number 007, would be about, well, 007. I love James Bond, even though most feminists tell me that I shouldn’t. Bond himself is a womanizer and probably a clinical sociopath, and the movies range from mildly to wildly misogynistic. I know this. And yet, he’s a favorite. A deeply problematic fave, to be sure, and I’m always first in line to criticize the Bond series. But the world of espionage is inherently a problematic space. It exists outside of civilian law, and different rules apply. Plus, it’s fiction.
