It actually serves a purpose and isn't the terrible thing you seem to imagine. Countless young girls are getting the message that airheaded beauty queens aren't cool. Which is a good thing.
Though I can see why the airheads at BS would be concerned. Their tactic seems basically to claim women are immune to any and all criticism. Why? Becasue they happen to be women, and barely smart enough to realize there is strength in numbers, and worried about a lot of criticism.
But they're so screechy, they actually drive away the best and brightest women. Notice there are no screechy radical feminists possessing other qualities? Notice you don't see the brilliant hard science majors, or beautiful women, or otherwise healthy, intelligent, and capable women on the Dworkin trip. Its always these below average women with inferiority complexes, or sexual neurosis, turned outwards.
