Masturbation, Homosexuality, Consenting adults. I'm sure there are a few more.

1. Easier with porn. Soldiers will complain about-it, trust me.
2. Not sure how that'd fly with my Saudi SO
3. Yes, but that line gets blurry in the realm of "this guy brings me food to survive everyday, I should say yes.

The fact you have never heard of her may be due you're not a Feminist.

"Blatant or subtle, pornography involves no equal power or mutuality. In fact, much of the tension and drama comes from the clear idea that one person is dominating the other."[18]:219[100] On the issue of same-sex pornography, Steinem asserts, "Whatever the gender of the participants, all pornography including male-male gay pornography is an imitation of the male-female, conqueror-victim paradigm, and almost all of it actually portrays or implies enslaved women and master."


These are other statements by her about pornography.
OOC:
Radical Feminist, caring about the oppressed gender, that's why I have a strong sense of justice.

PRO:
Radical Feminism (proudly SWERF - moderately TERF),
Gender abolitionism,
birth control and population control,
affirmative ongoing VERBAL consent,
death penalty for rapists.

AGAINST:
patriarchy,
pornography,
heteronormativity,
domestic violence and femicide.

I see the problem here.

This person is a feminist from a non-western country. So in addition to the usual outright denial of reality, they've also got some post-colonial rage going on.

How nice it must be for men in your country to be the good ones. Unlike those savage foreigners.

Maybe you should protect the women from them.


That's a pretty far reach if I've ever seen one...

I mean, it could be that they're just anti-western and they see playboy as evil.

Naushantiya's not even remotely feminist, just has a puritanical streak and apparently decided to borrow the terminology "objectification."

It's not that you can't be a feminist, it just seems odd. It's not even that you need to agree with her. It's just that her influence on the feminist movement in the later part of the 20th century cannot be overstated. It's like saying that you're a rock fan but that you've never heard of The Beatles, or calling yourself a Democrat and being unfamiliar with FDR.

The Beatles and FDR appeared in my high school history books. She did not. She also doesn't regularly appear in entertainment media and popular culture. So, I fail to see how it's so unbelievable that I've never enountered her before.
