One thing that really makes me laugh is when those who can't stand the idea that so many feminists are again challenging objectification, the sexualization of girls and women in the media, etc. try to conflate the moral objection to women owning their sexuality with the feminist objections mentioned before

I need to think about that more within the context of what we are experiencing on DU3.

Thanks, requeen. As usual, you have given me points to ponder and, I appreciate it.
