- Actually, you've explained her position on this adequately, it's simply that
- McKinnon is not a particulary moderate 'feminist' (she uses the term herself
- so we can avoid arguments of semantics). In fact it is because her attitudes
- are so extreme that they generate controversy, and also get the publicity
- they (imo) don't deserve on the merit of the views themselves.
-
- I'm not sure, were you just repeating that point of view, or espousing it?
