(115,186 posts)75. Who's 'anti sex'?
There is a serious shortage of logic in here when a handful of people decide that rather than discuss an issue on its merits, they instead resort to twisting words, misrepresenting arguments, etc.
I don't think anyone on DU is anti-sex. Objectification, dehumanization, and hypersexualization are not synonymous with sex. I feel sorry for the handful of DUers who apparently can't tell the difference, or who still don't understand what these terms even mean/are still in denial about their existence.
