Culture Shopping

He Who Really Should Find A Hobby Other Than Harassing Me All The Time has reminded me of my rare moment of more personal than usual public revelation, when I shared rambly thoughts on my very own act of  cultural appropriation. Which I don't remember writing about, but apparently I did back when I first started  exploring the concept of Blog. As the challenge he threw down was pointed and true (though we'll be fighting over  bits of some of his allegations for many messages to come), I decided ONE SINGLE ELEMENT OF WHAT HE SAID is correct, which means I must put that link from the old site up here.

Culture Shopping. (For context, the reference to VDG = Virgin de Guadalupe.)

It's not directly related to genre at all, but it does line up with the general topic.

I also have something else in the email that is absolutely correct - a short take on the issue that never came to my mind, which is why I'm grateful that so many of my friends are smarter than I - but I'm waiting for permission to throw it up here.

So there will be more, later.
