My only real comment/question I feel safe bringing up (As a White Anglo Saxon Protestant Male) is, this. This Paglia person says that (paraphrasing) "Women should 'Grow Up' and become Men's equals, not putting themselves in situations where they can get raped, much in the same way they take precautions to avoid robbery or violence." and the author never really comes up with a good counterpoint. Isn't it most progressive, and mature to say that there are bad men, and bad women, and that men and women should be personally responsible for their own safety, because it is naive to assume that other people will do it for them?
