A girl I know recently posted a photo of her own vagina on Facebook.
By doing this she may have (perhaps rightly) thought she was being feminist, that it would shock the world. She probably thought she was artistically demonstrating something along the lines of how invasive social networking is, and that by showing the world her vagina, she had nothing private left to offer, so to speak; her cards were all out on the table. Everyone can now see this shocking piece, marvel at the state of our society and debate where the ethical line should be drawn.
I just find it ironic, because she has 'deleted' me and has 'private' settings. I wonder if this means she cannot truly be an exhibitionist. I wonder if she would happily take her knickers off and show me her vagina in the street if I asked, or whether she has a select viewing list...
It annoys me that a lot of so called 'feminism' does absolutely nothing to aid female esteem.
