This is a really thought provoking article. Some feminists are going to agree with you, some aren't. That is what is so great (but also not so great?) about the new post third wave feminism that emphasizes intersectionality and individualism. The problem is (and always has been) the capitalist society. It is empowering to reclaim your body. But the main debate today seems to be finding the balance between finding your freedom and reclaiming your body and the patriarchal capitalist society co-opting this movement by exploitation, normalizing over-sexualization, and turning your body into a commodity.
