I'm the owner of a vagina and I don't feel victimized by pornography or the media. Maybe there have been times I have, however anyone can play the victim--that includes men...but it seems like they just don't give a shit. You're harming yourself by caring, you're victimizing yourself. No one has ever said, blatantly, "You have to look like this!" People have rights to make porn, they have the right to make risqué advertisements, individuals have their own sexual preferences (not to get into Biology). The mold is created when you believe in it. Don't bitch about the mold and it won't exist (and what the mold is to you could be a completely different one for another woman). You shouldn't be for taking away someone's rights simply because they make you feel uncomfortable with yourself. That's your problem. Feminists fucking annoy me, and I'm a woman. Equality has never been an issue with me, but maybe if I was treated less chivalrous by a man who is only nice to attractive women (his definition of attractive, mind you) I might be a little pissed off and want to throw tampons everywhere, too. Maybe I'm getting into opinion, but bitching about it just makes you seem weak. I'm not going to stand for unfair treatment but I'm not going to protest against something that has yet to even effect me, either. If I have an advantage because of the way I look, I'm going to take it. If I have a disadvantage, what can I do? Be obnoxious and vindictive? Good looks are an advantage for anyone of EITHER sex. I haven't seen any proof that men are more intelligent than women but if some breakthrough study proved the either has the better learning capacity I'd probably laugh and say, "So that's how it is." Opinion can be scary, fact needs acceptance. I think a driving factor behind feminism is fear.
