Well, I mean that women in general are objectified. I agree with you that women have to share the blame for this in our culture. I don't necessarily buy the idea that we are helpless victims of a misogynist culture. I agree with you that we women seem to hate ourselves as much as men hate us.

ITA.

I also think that hand in hand with that we need to find a way to decriminalise drug use and take drug distribution out of the hands of criminals. Often it's addiction that gets women or keeps women in the sex trade.
