Personally, I see feminists as latter-day torch bearers of old, puritanical ideas about sex and relationships. They really don't want sex to be talked about, but most especially by men. It isn't any surprise that early second-wave feminists thoroughly trashed gay men and treated them like dirt. Of course, they had to educate gay men about misogyny. Because women are men's moral superiors while they kick dirt in gay men's faces and call them worthless faggots. Seriously check out some of Gloria Steinem's early work in the seventies. That bitch HATES gay men. But, now she hearts the gay marriage.
I've felt this way for a long time. I think feminism has become the new mutant expression of that old strain of American Puritanism. It's not just expressions of sexuality that disturb them, it's the fundamental reality of sex. Ultimately they want to create a neutered society.
