I can't believe the stupidity of Combe and (Bonnie) Greer in that piece. Why won't people do their homework before they comment?!

Bindel's response was very moving.

What pisses me off is that it's not even about defending a person's right to sexually engage in their BDSM kink of choice, because no one's arguing that. It's about their right to engage in those sexual practices AND trade/sell pictures of it over the Internet, and they're not willing to give up that small privilege for women's human rights.
