I'll be honest, I was at a loss of what to write. I had several ideas- and likely good ones- but I just didn't have the motivation to write them. I'd said it all before, really.

Wow. I think the thing that gets me the most is how she characterizes Wash as abusive of Zoe, when the fact that she outranks him and is physically more competent than him is the linchpin of their relationship.

Furthermore, the implication that women don't really want sex, they just "think they do" paints a picture of women as being such weak, fragile creatures that they are inherently ingrained with this natural submission to the powerful Man Creature and rendered powerless to resist his masculinity.

I will never subscribe to modern-day feminism, which is really a masked called for feminist supremacy, wrapped in a veil of equality and good intentions. I feel the same way about some factions of the gay rights movement- while I fully support the equality of homosexuals and bisexuals (as well and transgendered individuals) to their heterosexual counterparts, and support gay marriage as much as I support secular heterosexual marriage- I have some issue with the type who go around wearing shirts that say "straight people scare me."

Way to re-advance the "women are bone china" theory, fem-nazis.

Exactly.

The author of that post clearly knew nothing of the characters' relationships, or of the complexity of the individual characters.

I hate it when people make rash judgements and are so loud and stupid about it. She gives radical lesbian feminists a bad name. (last sentence tongue-in-cheek, since I used to identify myself, and I'm not sure what shades of any of those three words fully apply to me.)
