Query: a naive and frightening attack on modern feminism

bravo to bolshoi_otsa@hotmail.com for a very accurate interpretation of Shalit's book. After seeing her on C-span, I was impressed with how articulate she is but not with what she or her book has to say. Although it is IN THEORY a viable and interesting idea it promotes the sexual guilt that women in all religions have had to bear throughout history. As stated before, the way a woman dresses and conducts herself has nothing to do with date rape or rape. Rape is about power. Similarly eating disorders have less to do with body image than they do with control. Ms. Shalit should not be considered a modern feminist because her ideas are distinctly old fashioned. While I find nothing wrong with old fashioned ideals I have to remember that they obviously didn't work then, because here we are. Shalit also doesn't support birth control and sex education, and I have to wonder how much worse off we would be today, without them.
