There’s been much snickering in blogdom regarding Andrea Dworkin’s essay on female suicide bombers. But Andrew Edwards of Sketch has taken it a step further, by claiming that Dworkin “thinks that mass murder is an appropriate response to ‘the stigma of being a woman’.” Note the deceptive use of a sentence fragment there; Dworkin’s essay in no way suggests that suicide bombing is “an appropriate response.” Edwards should distinguish between understanding motives behind terrorism - which is what Dworkin’s essay attempts - and saying that terrorism is appropriate.
