> What the Hell is this? Of course they're "entitled" to their own bodies. The author didn’t mention bodies, but minds. The author wrotes the men said they would not even “date” a black woman The men presumably are attracted to women, but said they would not date a woman of black skin > One of them mentioned he wouldn’t date a black woman. > Are they entitled to have this preference

You're trying to defend someone who wants to use the language of social justice to pressure others into sex. Pressuring someone into sex is disgusting, and horrible, and it doesn't matter who's doing it or why.

    I think it's fair to say that for this book dating implies having sex, since it's peak intimacy. The title starts with "The Right to Sex" and the article mentions sex a lot.

        > The title starts with "The Right to Sex" and the article mentions sex a lot. I'm not saying dating literally means having sex. I'm saying in this context sex is a logical progression from dating.

  She’s not trying to pressure anyone into sex, this is probably the most disingenuous read someone could make.

    The blog author doesn't actually make it clear if the line > You are not entitled to sex with anyone, but people can have preferences that are problematic. is spoken from their perspective or the book author's perspective. It's not a given that they agree with that sentiment. So it might be that the blog author briefly entertained their question of entitlement as a consideration before arriving at the conclusion quoted above, or they still favor it.
