While I see where you’re coming from, and of course, as the author, you assume the right to share your own personal experience, I feel as though this piece does a great disservice to the other, less ‘kill-the-patriarchy-men-are-delicate-animals’ reasons. Reasons like increased intimacy, a mutual desire to explore boundaries and sexual limits, the exploration of unfamiliar pleasure and sensation.... just saying, it feels like pieces such as this promote the negative stereotypes of men that actual do more harm to feminism than good, in vilifying things that aren’t actually always what they seem.
