Bindel, Hite and Feminism Today

Julie Bindel has a piece in the Guardian today, interviewing the legendary sex researcher Shere Hite. For those not familiar with Hite, it's a nice simple introduction but for me, the piece fell a bit flat. I was surprised at the lack of spark but it also seemed far too short (more so when you see it on paper) and it would have been nice to see a bigger piece exploring some of the many themes that this piece throws up around feminism, sexuality, orgasm and so on. Had it had that length (I'm thinking page and a half in the main paper, Saturday feature or maybe a piece in the Saturday magazine), then it would have also provided the space for a bit more 'sparkyness' and reflection.
