Maybe it was a bit blunt I meant basically my interpretation of her work would serve to free women from the worry that they had to temper anything to conform to an expected standard? Like the need to express feminism in a way that excludes a female form... the ultimate feminist idolatry.
I'm thinking this is coming from my pagan roots here, I'm passionate about the triple goddess and I see no harm, shame or embarrassment in the expression of femininity in feminism. That it can mean so many things and is for me a tool for empowerment not a symbol of subjugation.
