10. From what I've seen, most self identified female feminists are pro choice & sex positive too.

As in, most of them believe in self determination for consenting adults, equal rights for all, and if consenting adults want to fuck in front of a camera that's their own business.

There is a small group apparently carrying around some indoctrination gibberish from 1974 or so, who believe all hetero sex is oppressive (or, according to Dworkin axiom #1, "rape"*) ... At best penetrative Sex involving a male member Is "problematic" if not downright icky... And there is a small but very vocal group that not only believes penetration is "unnatural" but is actively working to stamp it out as the number one sociopolitical crisis facing our planet.

I swear, I'm not making this up.

But I think a lot of the sturm und drang we hear and see doesn't break so much on gender lines, so much as generational.



*uh, yeah, she did.
