Andrea Dworkin:sex postive feminist -- almost sorta

You know, I’d sat on the phone in voicemail jail hell today and it occurred to me that, in spite of claims that all sex positive feminism is is flaunting your casabas and having sex twice a day, every single day and three times on Sundays, that the people who are really obsessed with sex are the people who think that is what sex positive feminism is about.

Which is to say: there are gradations along a continuum to the point that, when they are most hostile to sex positive feminism (rather than just ignorant of it — not dumb, just not knowledgeable about a specific topic), they are utterly obsessed with discussions of it.

That was an assertion. I’m sorely tempted to stroke it. Get out the old Boy Butter and Go. To. Town. With Boots On!

But wouldn’t that be unfair? Am I not supposed to be firmly planted in the reality-based community? And what does that mean? That you actually back up your assertions with some kind of argument. This Bitch likes to try to do that and, if I don’t, I like to be up front and say: “I’m just rantin’ here so send me a klew by four if I’m out of line.
