Shocking (as is homophobia), but since I wasn't around at the time and don't really have the context I try to convince myself that I can ignore it and that Chris has always been just as socially liberal as I want her to be.

Chris has always seemed very liberal to me, actually. I don't know how liberal she actually is, but she seems like it. On the other hand, there are some things she seems very shy about. For example, she was embarrassed to use the word "dildo" in an interview around the time of ITM. Maybe that's just English propriety, though. |

Eek, took me awhile to find it because I couldn't remember which interview it was from.

I remember being at a Beach Boys concert....Dennis was drunk out of his mind, and at one point start to verbally bash Stevie and "praise" Christine.....he basically tried to drag her up on stage, but she refused. Even with her sitting down in her seat, you could FEEL her embarassment!
There was NO WAY the relationship would EVER last! |

It is a constant source of cognitive dissonance to me that, as much as love and admire Fleetwood Mac, the women have chosen to liaise themselves with some absolutely massive bawbags. I swear, Dennis Wilson makes Joe Walsh look like a rank amateur, in the matter of disrespecting, abusing and generally demeaning someone who is in every way his superior. All I can say is that Chris and Stevie's panties must've been running the show for many years, until they wore out and they had to deploy the flimsier tissue of their brains. I cringe for them. Dreadful, dreadful men, and they chose them. I am speechless - but most of the time I just pretend it didn't happen and that they're actually the strong, independent artists that I want them to be.

Of course, there's no denying that Dennis had many flaws--his use of Chris's funds is absolutely maddening, and apparently he was something of a homophobe. But I don't doubt that he also had extraordinary qualities. I have to think CAH captured Dennis pretty well--as magnetic and charming as he was irresponsible. Storms may have had many flaws, but I really appreciated her memories of Dennis because I could really see why Chris fell in love with him, and why it could never have worked. A few crazy, roller coaster years don't make Chris less of an independent woman or artist. I actually admire that she, nearing 40 and following a divorce, was open to this wild relationship.

I disagree with the implication that Chris indulged in serial bad relationships. Both her marriages were good for a time, and neither of the men she married was a scoundrel. I'm no expert on her personal life, since I mainly pay attention to the music, but it seems to me that she had some good luck, some bad, in relationships, and much of that may have been due to the unstable lifestyle of being in a wildly successful rock band.

As for who I am to presume anything? I'm no one, of course. All I can say in explanation is that when I was an undergraduate studying English Lit, it was a source of amazement to me that people could spend an entire career studying the characters in, say, the novels of Thomas Hardy. Decades. Decades of full-time, prestigious work spent probing into the motives and psychology of people that Hardy had made up! I don't apologise, therefore, for being interested in CM and SN as women, as artists, as women-artists, as icons, and as people. I do apologise for the fact that I could have phrased my speculation more politely. I'll shut up now. Loz |
