The rights of women? Women have a right to not have a book published? Really?
I could make the parallel argument for The Anarchist's Cookbook, and the difference between publication and action, but what's the point? Gender politics has been extraordinarily effective at driving reason out of such discussions.
This was clearly, obviously, blatantly not in response to anyones hangups about sex in general. Not wanting to be associated with creepy, rapey stuff written by and for creepy, rapey people is hardly Puritanical, it's more like being a human being.
Perhaps you meant to reply to the parent or grandparent? I'm merely pointing out that "Puritan America" does not mean "1600's Puritans That Just Happen To Be Living In What Will Become America". I could not get the site to load to read the book, so I cannot make judgement on the content.
