Nothing at all!! That isn't at all what I've been talking about here. Portraying women as sexual beings and portraying them as body parts that exist solely for the satisfaction of men are two different things. The first one is accurate and healthy. The second is a dangerous distortion. The latter is really a form of sexual repression. It strips women of their own sexual identity, their own desires, their own right for sex and makes them silent inanimate objects.

So yeah, that's my point.
