Like if you're straight, do you want to publicly debate whether your marriage is valid? Andrea Dworkin claimed that penetrative heterosexual intercourse is inherently an act of violence. I've noticed most straight men don't want to have calm, civil discussions about that.

Dworkin explains- - "This dominance of men by women is experienced by the men as real, emotionally real, sexually real, psychologically real; it emerges as the reason for the wrath of the misogynist. The woman appears to control sex. The man needs it. This causes his rage at her perceived power over him."

Like in that Stephen Hicks video, Hicks summarizes Dworkin as- "Calling all heterosexual males r*pists." Literally in the preface to her most famous book, Dworkin says "If one's sexual experience has always and without exception been based on dominance, how could one understand that this book does not say that all men are r*pists or that all intercourse is r*pe?" - Listen Hicks, I get you're a full professor and I'm just a makeup vlogger, but my gut feeling on this one is before criticizing a book, maybe read the book
