And Another Reason to Ditch Netflix!

Lucy Maud Montgomery did NOT make Aunt
Aunt Jo a lesbian, leave that depravity to NETFLIX!

I love Anne of Green Gables. When I read this article it made me hopping mad!

NETFLIX injects lesbian character in children's story

How dare they pollute an author's works with their depraved imaginations. There is absolutely nothing in the Anne of Green Gables series that Aunt Jo is a lesbian.

Aunt Jo is a delightfully opinionated old lady who brooks no fools. I think she would be irate, and rightly so, over NETFLIX taking the liberty to tarnish her good name. She would certainly not be a liberal!

There have been spinsters throughout history and speculating about a fictional character's lesbianism  is sick, particularly when the author is a Christian, the wife of a Presbyterian minister who thought being a wife and mother was the most important work a woman could do.

If you haven't dumped NETFLIX why not?

RIP, Gilbert Blythe...

...in real life - actor Jonathan Crombie. Only 48, he died April 15th of a brain hemorrhage. Anne of Green Gables fans will miss him, me included. Anne and the BBC version of Pride and Prejudice are my favorite films ever.

So many of the actors who made Anne so memorable are gone: Colleen Dewhurst so perfectly cast as the somewhat crusty Marilla Cuthbert; Richard Farnsworth as her brother Matthew, shy and sweet and absolutely smitten with a talkative little girl; Charmiion King as the rich and bossy Aunt Josephine. Ah...what joy these creative souls continue to bring to those who love Anne and her life on Prince Edward Island.
