Are there app's available teaching men to masturbate? If there are, then she has a complaint. If there aren't, she doesn't have much ground to stand on.

As mentioned in the article, rack stare [1] is in the app store. So masturbation bad, sexual harassment good? [1] https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/rack-stare/id385786751?mt=8 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/rack-stare/id385786751?mt=8

  Let's get on a more basic level, even. Which of the two apps is more pornographic? The cutesy anthropomorphized vagina giving anatomical lessons, or the game that rewards you for staring at cleavage?

    Please read the entirety of the article, including page two (which is unfortunately easy to miss). There she writes: > I’ll acknowledge that, although disgusting and possibly dangerous, Rack Stare caters to a certain market. The real problem is there aren’t many alternatives to this construction of sexuality

We don't have to ensure that men have parity before granting women the same privileges. I'd suggest that educational resources are much more needed and demanded for women than men in this market. Also, as discussed in the article, Rack Stare seems to me far more objectionable (and I doubt it's alone in the App Store). If Apple's going to endorse sexual harassment of women, it might as well cut them some slack in learning about their own bodies.

I didn't get that at all from the article; how did you arrive at the conclusion that discontent could only be valid if there were apps for both sexes on the market? It seemed to me like there was a whole lot of article giving ample ground to stand on.

The author is claiming that girls and women aren't getting access to adequate information about their bodies. If that is true then the fact(?) that there isn't an app about male masturbation is irrelevant.
