Nerve Dating Confessions

April 17, 8:34PM Seduction is often difficult to distinguish from rape. In seduction, the rapist often bothers to buy a bottle of wine. ~Andrea Dworkin CAN RELATE (2) CAN'T RELATE (14) FLAG FOR ABUSE

Andrea Dworkin, misguided bomb-thrower second only to Newt Gingrich.

Thanks, Andrea Dworkin, for pissing in the pool, and giving misogynistic asswipes an excuse to reject feminism. Get the fuck off my side, you're making me look bad.

jlm, you're making yourself look pretty bad on your own with you ad hominem, Twitter-length screed. Lighten up, and remember that it's ok for "feminists" in all their varieties, to have a sense of humor. My take on Dworkin is that she personally had some bad experiences, nurtured a big field of rage, and turned it loose on the world in the name of all women. She made some good points, but like you, jlm, described them with a flamethrower. Where's the sense in that? Take care of your own shit before you go making pronouncements about others.
