In my youth, (more than a few years ago), young girls were mostly dedicated to denial of the role as sexual partners to men, and often frustrated when married and sex was permitted, but the fantasy of its magical perfection not achieved. Feminists even complained that, "men viewed their bodies as sexual objects!" Women, (not all, but many), yearned to have their bodies used as sexual objects. They had been raised on self-denial and wanted male partners that would free them from that and lead them in experiencing the alluring but forbidden pleasures whispered of between them and their friends. Early Feminism became as sexually oppressive of women as the Victorian fads that saw their bodies as lures to be dangled, but never fully delivered, lest they lose power to their sexual foes.
Lost in these centuries of political maneuverings and propaganda formulations has been the individuality of women, men ... dogs, cats, herd animals in the field and poultry in the yard. It is the nature of animalia that each of us is different with different perspective on life and different experiences and behaviors as a result. Diversity demands fewer regulations, because fairness demands that regulations have a resemblance to uniform application. But rules and guidance cannot altogether be done away with, due to diversity in perspectives.
The essence of what is now called "classic liberalism", (since the agents of chaos usurped the name "liberal" and applied it to the diametric opposite objective), is, "least is best". It recognizes that only liberty and freedom of choice works for a diverse humanity and the types and applications in which societies must ask compromise of individual self determination is best when those types and applications are the least that still allows society to function.
In summary; both the Victorian and Feminist models of female sexuality neglected those women who enjoy sex and want to find ways to give it variety, but need guidance, (not rules), on options, safety and partner selection.

Edwin Loftus is an American painter and draftsman born in 1951. His interest in art began at the age of 4 when he decided to draw something real rather than working from his imagination.
As a child he excelled at drawing and as a teenager he began to experiment with oil painting. In college, he took courses in art and art history and realized that true art had nothing to do with the quality of the drawing or painting, but that it had to have the ambition to push the boundaries and expand the visual experience.
He also studied philosophy, psychology and history and quickly realized that it was just another art establishment trying to defend its elitist industry and reward system. Their skills were almost non-existent, they knew nothing about psychology, perception or stimulus response, and they were extensions of the belief system that made communism, fascism and other forms of totalitarianism such destructive forces in the world. They literally believe that art shouldn't be available to ordinary human beings, but only to an elite "sophisticated" enough to understand it.
Edwin Loftus realized that the emperors of art had no clothes, but they were still the emperors. Gifted in art, he worked hard to acquire this skill. So he found other ways to make a living and sold a few artworks from time to time. For sixty years, many people enjoyed his works and some collected them.
Today, Edwin Loftus is retired. Even if he sold all his paintings for the price he asked, "artist" would be the lowest paid job he ever had... but that's the way it is. It won't matter to him after he dies. He just hopes that some people will like what he does enough to enjoy it in the future.
