I guess some people are uncomfortable with the issues raised in the article. Alternative explanation: some users are trigger-happy and flag an article based on the headline before they have a chance to read it. ~Its un-flagged by now~, and I vouched too BTW...

Its a good article and a balanced discussion about feminism would be very nice to have here...

The author questions whether men are "entitled" to their own bodies.

Saying people's preferences are "Problematic" is a way to pressure them into sex: "You're a horrible person if you don't have sex with me!"

Yes and if you'd continued to read the article, you would have noticed that this situation is used as an example about the problematic aspects of sexuality in our society -- its a segue to an argument, not the argument itself.

> You are not entitled to sex with anyone, but people can have preferences that are problematic

You rather took this one line out of context and interpreted in the worst possible way.

That is dubious but people are calling it out and everything else seems not egregious, so it seems better to not flag it and let the discussion carry on.

Nevermind, seems like I suffered from the same misunderstanding. I even read the next part but I forgot.

No but it’s possible the others that flagged it had the same misunderstanding
