Yeah, I agree completely. It's like the crazy feministas who criticise girls for wearing miniskirts or flesh-revealing clothing saying that they're going against women rights and presenting themselves as sex objects or whatever. Isn't that a step
back in women's rights, back to the time where women weren't socially allowed to wear skirts above their knees and stuff? Women's rights should mean liberation and choice. A choice to shave your legs if you want to, or not shave them if you don't want to. To wear miniskirts and somewhat revealing clothes if you want to, or to be more conservative. Women should have choices but there are some hardcore feminists which I think try to promote having less choices which is bad.
And there is nothing wrong with personal maintenance. It's not just women that maintain their physical selves, men do too... It's one of the reasons why I hate the term 'feminist' because people just think of butch short-haired women who don't shave their legs or armpits or wear dresses.
