Seems interesting but at over 700 pages is it worth reading?

Is picrel good or nah? I'm thinking about copping it. It seems fascinating. I've listened to the veeeeery long intro and some excerpt from the middle of the book where she talks about De Sade. I found it equally repulsive and interesting. Paglia seems like a real tortured dyke feminist genius and I want to get into her work.

iirc it's about hypocrisy more than anything else, how many times people say that vaginas are icky but when justifying their own acts they say "oh you can wash it and...", or maybe like they want it to be not condemned but they go out of their way to act as queer as possible.

To say there isn't an argument against is very dishonest, if you know one personally it would become apparently clear how did they end up this way. From having a skewed of masculinity from past experiences which leads them to reject that part of themselves, to conforming towards their unhealthy life style because hey why bother anymore if it feels nice.
And on top of that to say they had no choice over the matter even though one always has the choice to decide how they want to react what happens to the in life (basic free will).

Anyway maybe Sexual Personae by Camille Paglia could be the book you're looking for, I didn't read it yet but it's highly regarded afaik.

Paglia discusses that question here

Grass huts.

What's the consensus on it?
Any woman who have read it want to tell me if it's actually a good book to learn about feminism.

Is this worth reading? I like literary criticism but from some videos I’ve seen of her I get the feeling that this might be banalities dressed up in “transgression”.

Should I read this? Thoughts on Paglia's writing?
