"The flip side of this charming worldview, of course, is male anger at women who don't make themselves available — see many of our friends in that now-closed thread — or women who have the gall to have a body they find unattractive. That's the real problem with feminism, with fatness, with (for some pseudo-enlightened guys) the extremely thin beauty ideal: it's a boner-killer, and boner primacy is a paramount law of the dude cabal. You don't have to read very far between the lines of most troll comments to see that's what it boils down to: how dare you possess a womanly body I can't or don't want to fuck."
