The Enchanted Wood

[@stevecray8282]

My late nan used to read these books to my dear late mum, who in turn read them to me. I have read them to my kids , who I'm sure will read them to theirs when they have children. What a magical place to visit in a world of turmoil. Thank you mum, for making my childhood all the more magical. 💙🙏🏻

[@lindahunter6643]

I think you have to remember she was born in 1897, it was a different world

[@VigilanteJustice_1]

She can not at all be "excused" for her inexcusable sexist/racist attitudes by it being a "different world" back then. My grandfather was born in 1880, my grandmother was born in 1887. Yes they had their "traditional" roles in the family but he knew how to cook and wash dishes when needed and she knew how to do basic home repairs when needed. They raised their 3 sons and 4 daughters to do the same. They also raised them to be non-sexist and non-racist although they were born and lived their entire lives in Alabama... a truly "different world".

[@lindahunter6643]

I know exactly where you're coming from and to an extent I agree.I came from a poor family in the north east of England. My great grandmother who I remember vividly brought up 11 children by hook or crook, salmon and game poached from the country .We were all aware even in the 1970s when she died at 94 of the difference between us and them (the better off our so called superiors)I can laugh at their ignorance now,their narrow mindedness.I see my brother now head of slovanic languages at Glasgow university,myself with a degree in later life. Nothing bought,all earned by our efforts. I was a Jo,the dirty little gipsy girl,come a long way since then.brought my kids up without prejudice or money and their thriving,living well. So for me,I can laugh at the ignorance and fear of the common folk they had because anything is possible now

[@VigilanteJustice_1]

@@fraufreundt6849, excuse me? Why are you "shouting" at me? I am well aware the stories are fictional... not real. "Shouting" at me like that is really rude and really uncalled for! And did I say I was upset? No, I simply said that my grandparents and parents who were born in that "different world" performed but were not confined to or defined by their "traditional" roles in the family and that Enid Blyton's being born in that did not "excuse" her for her inexcusable sexist/racist attitudes by it being a "different world" back then. In fact, considering the fact that she functioned in a far from "traditional" role herself, some of the attitudes she promoted in the characters in her books is even more inexcusable.

[@lindahunter6643]

@@VigilanteJustice_1 I'd actually agree with you vigilante and someone shouting at you is completely unacceptable,we may choose 2 disagree but we're all allowed 2 have different views,perspectives,so whoever you were,give it a blooming break!

[@VigilanteJustice_1]

To please the PC crowd, the publishers changed it to Franny because of the sexual anatomical connotations of "Fanny" (in the UK and Ireland Fanny is a slang term for the vagina). They also changed "Dick" to "Rick". I expect they'd also have changed "Willy" to "Billy" if that had been a character's name.😜 And let's not forget the changing of the nursery rhyme "Pussy in the well" to "Kitty in the well" as I have seen done in several places.😋

[@jennifermcdonald5432]

I have loved these books all my life. I do find it a tiny bit disappointing that Ms Blyton so determinedly reinforced the old stereotypes. She had such a wonderful chance to broaden children’s horizons, to break the moulds. Not in any outlandish ways, just little things like boys cooking or doing dishes, or girls building things like stools or a ladder, or perhaps working in the garden. I don’t know, any tiny little thing would’ve been fantastic.

[@VigilanteJustice_1]

Yes, I do agree. Also besides being "sexist" (which I can sort of "forgive" due to the times these were being written) she was also extremely racist (which I really can't entirely "forgive"). I am over 70 but I can honestly say that my parents raised me (in the 50s and 60s) to be neither sexist or racist. My mother was born and raised in Alabama, both her grandfathers and several uncles served in the Confederate army, yet I can say with complete honesty that I never met a single person in her extended family who was at all racist. I certainly can not say the same about my father's "Yankee" parents though. I don't know how he grew up avoiding being corrupted by their racism, but he and two of his brothers did.

Don’t be so silly, no one, mentioned anything about being offended, and I’m certainly not in the least offended. I have adored Enid Blyton all my life, her stories have always given me a safe, secure feeling with just a touch of magic mixed in. Please don’t lump me in with the woke types, because I’m certainly not one. If people are offended, tough! Get over it, or don’t read the book. I just think she was in an incredibly good position to introduce very, very little changes.

[@ryanjones1938]

This goes too far. This isn't what Enid blyton wrote. It's no different than the new a.i's not able to paint the Nazi symbol, as though it doesn't exist. Yet it existed long before the nazis used it. You can't change history (unless you're China where nothing interesting happened in 1989)
