(I gotta tell you, when you first started mention the critique of Firefly, I got all tense, because I was really afraid you were going to agree with it. YAY that you didn't. In fact, that "critique" is where my icon came from. Because, WHAT. Joss Whedon is a rapist has become a catch phrase among a few of my friends. It's absolutely absurd.)
That's an extreme example of the harm of this kind of breed of radical feminism, and I won't rant about it anymore (this was months ago and I already posted a huge, possibly slightly ranty reply in my journal), but I guess what I'm trying to say is that I totally get where you're coming from finding this so ridiculous and offensive.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Allecto's rant inspired a rant of my own, too, and it's absolutely unbelievable to me how QUICK some women - who consider themselves pro-women! FEMINISTS! - are to take away another woman's agency. WHAT. I just!
