Feminists can’t decide what to do with their bodies. If they show too little, they’re allowing the patriarchy to oppress and control their sexuality. If they show too much, they’re allowing the patriarchy to exploit and take advantage of them.
Our current crop of feminists find themselves in quite a bind — a pickle felt by actress Natalie Dormer when critics of her new film In Darkness attacked its sadistic elements and “gratuitous” female nudity. Dormer, who co-wrote the thriller with Anthony Byrne and plays a sight-impaired pianist in the film, defended her artistic choices and her commitment to feminism.
