I didn't accuse YOU of such a distaste; I accused the creators of GNOME and GTK of it.
And its prehistoric memory management is an objection to C, not to OO. The overuse of C is the main reason we have the computing culture we do, of "buffer overruns" and remote (h|cr)acking exploits &c. Java is arguably better, as is C#, or Objective C, but I think higher-level languages will eventually win out. I hope so, anyway.
