Camille PagliaI consider myself 100 percent a feminist, at odds with the feminist establishment in America. For me the great mission of feminism is to seek the full political and legal equality of women with men.

I utterly oppose special protection for women where I think that a lot of the feminist establishment has drifted in the last 20 years.
