"Young women are encouraged to pursue hooking up because that is what empowered women are supposed to do. Those who abstain are seen as unfortunate casualties of a culture rampant with slut shaming and repressive gender norms."

Uh, that is absurd. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/article-feminism-in-the-bedroom-can-leave-women-unfulfilled/">https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/a...

Maybe this is the case in some funhouse mirror corner of the internet, but my goodness that& #39;s embarrassing to see put forward as a serious argument by anyone.

"If a woman is more interested in having committed relationships, that should be completely fine, too. She should not be made to feel as though she is uptight, unenlightened or a sexual prude."

Good news, that is indeed completely fine already.

Sexual freedom means precisely that -- the freedom to govern your own sexual behaviour and choices.

Feminism isn& #39;t pressuring young women to be promiscuous, but true, it& #39;s not interested in shaming those who choose casual sex over committed relationships.
