Notes -
Finally read and almost finished Louise Perry's Case Against the Sexual Revolution after seeing her good showing in a debate with Aella., who...didn't come off well in comparison.
It's a pretty standard critique of BDSM, prostitution, porn and so on with some criticism of liberal feminism's assumptions to help ground it on firmer ground.
Really, its only value was seeing where a feminist thinks other feminists and normies are, since those are who she's writing to - if you've done a bare amount of reading in evopsych, TRP or critics of liberalism like Deneen it's all banal. And where she thinks we are is still arguing over blank slateism and needing to tell her peers that things like evopsych and parental investment theory aren't inherently sexist. Awesome.
I also got Christine Emba's book in a bulk buy and now I'm actually dreading it.
