Sex

I've read a lot of opinions on the whole boob debacle over the last few days. The absolute best one is here. It's long, but that's what makes it worth reading, because it captures the complexity of both that particular situation and real life in general.

I think most of the damage was caused by [livejournal.com profile] theferrett's textbook misogynistic objectifying language all the way through the post. I think I fell a little in love with [livejournal.com profile] tablesaw when I saw his commentary on it.

And yes, you're right, I'm quite obviously okay about it. But actually I was more using me as an example - every lesbian you know has had to put up with these questions. I actually get them less than most, I assume because no one wants to think about fat girls having sex. Which sort of goes to prove where the supposed innocent spirit of enquiry actually tends.
