I think some of the stuff that you were bothered by were thoughts that weren't expressed very clearly. I know the kind of women she's talking about and my read on it as that she's talking about women whose whole identity is wrapped up in being vegan or bisexual or backpacking through South America. There's nothing else to them. They're empty and boring and yet somehow people are drawn to them because they somehow translate that one-dimensional identity into something glamorous. She wants women to be people.

Some of the name dropping was annoying because I disagree about who those women are at their core, but at the same time I can see that the work that comes from some of them doesn't necessarily dispel the notion that they're pretty empty.
