>What surprised Cambridge Professor Victoria Bateman was not the amount of criticism she received, but how much of that criticism came from women.
>Bateman made news last week when she arrived to a university function wearing nothing but a completely transparent leotard and evening shoes.
>In response to a volley of criticism she had received, Bateman told Pluralist on Tuesday that her provocative act was part of a fight against what she sees as a regressive trend in attitudes toward women.
>"The world is on the edge of moving backwards rather than forwards in regard to women's freedom," she said over email. "That includes women's freedom to dress as they wish - at both ends of the spectrum."
>She opposes Denmark's newly-passed burqa ban as vehemently as she does Saudi Arabia's modesty laws.
> “I believe that fundamentally every woman should be free to do what she wants with her own body - whether to cover or uncover, to control her fertility or not, to be a home-maker or to pursue a career, and to monetize her brain or her body," said Bateman.
>Bateman argued that to fight this trend, society must recognize its root cause: "The (wrong) association of women's bodies with sin and shame, and with it the notion that a woman's value is in large part based on how 'modest' she is."
What's the problem with Christian conservative men and women? If women want to dress provocatively, then they shouldn't be harassed for their choice.
she's not pretty enough for me to pretend to care about seeing her naked.

Why would a beautiful woman be a feminist nowadays? Feminism is for lesbians and the ugly.

>men are sexually stimulated visually >women showing their bodies in public is nonconsensual sexual stimulation
She raped those men.

>that her provocative act was part of a fight against what she sees as a regressive trend in attitudes toward women. Does she not understand that women like her are the reason why it’s regressing?
hint nobody has any inherent value. if you want to be a dumb, loud, talentless cunt and be valued by society, you better work on appealing to men sexually. if you want to devote yourself to work or creativity, then just do it and you'll earn respect. but if you want to be a dumb, loud, talentless cunt and constantly spout off on how you need to be valued and praised for it, nobody's going to put up with you for very long.

I wonder what the response would be if men decided to walk around naked with erect cocks whenever and wherever they wanted. MENS COMFORT NOW! We must all become shameless selfcentered retards whom desperatly seek attention at every outlet, otherwise we are no longer moving forward with the MENS rights movement but backwards. Oh no.

She would only attend a white man's function dressed like this. This would only be any kind of statement if she attended a Muslim, African, Indian or whatever type function dressed like this.

Why do only ugly women do this?

Desperate for attention.

feminism has always been abouy ugly women collectively bargaining in the sexual market place
Ugly women wish they could attract rich, handsome, tall, famous men. Women NEVER want to settle for less. If they are a 3/10, then they want men who are at least 5/10.

"and with it the notion that a woman's value is in large part based on how 'modest' she is."
Because it is. Guarantee this chick fucked around, got told she's a whore, got absolutely buttdevestated, and now is trying to raise her value by downplaying the value of modesty.
Girls who do this kind of shit are PROJECTING so hard.
