I dunno if this was covered..
"It questions a woman's inner knowing, her own path in life. It also suggests that women don't know what's best for them and that they have to defer to a medical authority to make life decisions."
Funny that whenever a woman wants a shot of Botox or a pair of breast implants, suddenly feminists are the first to say she doesn't know what's best for her and question her "inner knowing".
So where does this "inner knowing" go when it comes to cosmetic surgery? Wearing makeup? Wearing high heels? Oh riiiight: all of that stuff is pandering to men due to patriarchal influence having taken-over women's brains.
What would you call an ideology which does this? "Dimwit feminism" perhaps?
This is why most feminists offend me so much. When it comes to the wearing of make up, shaving, dieting, anything that might make a woman more “conventionally attractive”, that is pandering to the Patriarchy. This comes from those who say "MY BODY MY CHOICE" all over the place.
