Yes. Laurie Penny--who's been kind of a big deal in feminist post-#metoo op-eds--has had multiple columns this year arguing that her life as a polyamorous woman who does casual sex would be a lot easier if more men got over our hangups and bought into consent culture. Saturday's column by Arwa Mahdawi argues that if queer-positive burlesque clubs can do consent culture, so can the office Christmas party. Even if you go back all the way to 1970s radical feminism, people like Dworkin emphasized that male violence is a political construct and not something essential to men, although one argument there is that ending sexual violence would mean giving up as masculinity as we currently understand it (Stoltenberg). But I'm mostly of the opinion that a large number of the young people claiming to be "radical feminists" are--in the kindest interpretation--cherry picking bits and pieces of radical feminist theory in the service of an ironic misogyny.

Generally though, using Twitter and YouTube conversations as evidence for anything beyond the case that people on Twitter and YouTube are frequently horrible is a big WTF. Viral tags are often filled with rants and shitposts, if not blatant trolling. But I've been a deep curmudgeon on the idea that people shouldn't use Twitter as a source.
