Why do I think sexual freedom is important to feminism?

Well, for the long answer, see this entire blog. But for the short answer: because it’s impossible for women to be accepted as human beings if we aren’t accepted as sexual beings. If women’s dignity is contingent on our not being too sexy, we’re never going to have dignity. We have to accustom ourselves to the idea that someone can be highly sexual, publicly sexual, sexual in a way that we would totally never do ourselves because whoa… and still have dignity.

Holly at the Pervocracy in “Sex Pozzie”

Emphasis mine.
