On sex with a drunk woman equaling rape: "The real snake is the thesis that women are like children, and like children, must be protected from themselves."According to my Kindle, I'm 57% of the way through the book. I'll comment on the meat of it when I get to 100%.
Explaining why women can't consent to prostitution under the "domination theory": "Women who voluntarily engage in prostitution have been involuntarily recruited by daily patriarchal practices and institutional ideology: a woman whores because it's a man's world."
"Feminism and prostitution, those twin administrations of women's bodies, each claiming province of their hearts and minds, have been conjoined since the Victorian era."
"In the too-liberal imagination, each of the Seven Deadly Sins is attributed to a mutilated Me: the glutton is only starved for affection, the violent lashes out to reach out, and the murderous just doesn't get the rest of us."

Got this book to review (also bought the Kindle version). I haven't finished reading it yet and I'm one of those strange people who won't actually review a book without reading it. However, here are some interesting quotes from the book so far.
