    what an excellent use of outrage

    Yes, in a world where women still make only 77 cents to the male dollar in the richest society on the planet; where access to reproductive health of all kinds -- abortion, contraception, education -- is under the worst attack in a quarter-century; when tens of thousands of women worldwide are literally, not figuratively, enslaved for the sexual satisfaction of men and the profits of organized mobs of pimps -- let's spend time and energy castigating some jerk of a restaurant owner because he's allowing some women to rent their bodies as dinnerware.

    Do you not understand that it is exactly this sort of nonsense that allows the right to call feminists "feminzis" and lets far too many American voters NOT think that's completely insane?
