This would be the week I decided to finally read The Mote in God's Eye. >.>

No cringeworthy moments like that yet, but I'm only one hundred pages in.

No, wait, I lie. Only one prominent female character in a rather large cast, and while she is the only anthropologist and very intent on giving good advice to the military captain/protagonist leading what will be a First Contact mission, she's being very much kept off-stage.

I have a soft spot for Niven and Pournelle--up to a point--but, yeah. Not aging well.
