Wendy McElroy on sex, rape and libertarian feminism

Interview. McElroy: "I read Ayn Rand when I was 15 years old, beginning with the novel We The Living. I then consumed everything I could find by Rand, identifying myself as an Objectivist. In some ways, I remain an Objectivist. I still agree with Rand's metaphysics, epistemology, economics and much of her politics. I disagree with her acceptance of a limited government, with some of her ethical positions (especially on sex) and with her aesthetics." (03/11/12)

I became a libertarian after being able to articulate these differences.
