Shock: Gwynneth Paltrow Hates America
Why is she giving interviews about this? Isn't she supposed to be blogging on HuffPo?
"Yes, well, I went to Spain in an exchange program at 15, and I've always been drawn to Europe. America is such a young country, with an adolescent swagger about it. But I feel that I have a more European sensibility, a greater respect for the multicultural nature of the globe. And it's a strange time to be an American now."
I don't think kids should be allowed to visit Europe until they're actually fully formed adults. I know people who went to Europe in high school and college, and it sort of warped them. It's an enticing place and an attractive way of life. And the immature are overly influenced it.
Think Ozzy Osbourne records are insidious? Send a fourteen year old girl to Paris for a summer. That's insidious.
