It's taken a while to finish this, partly because of other stuff, but mostly because I went 'argh, what crap' so often when reading it.
One of the problems is that it's a bit like the situation with bisexuality - you can get people thinking that ALL bisexuals are closeted married men having sex with men in 'public sex environments' and others going 'bisexuals are evil women who leave lesbian relationships for men' and more who... etc etc without any of them acknowledging the real diversity. And because of various political agendas (Liz Kelly, for example, is rabidly against all sex work) there is minimal meeting of minds. ( Quite long, but then we have minds )
