Joanna Lumley, sex icon for a generation, has gone in for slut-shaming, and I really don't blame her, for two main reasons: First of all, Lumley, like me, is old enough to remember a time when female empowerment wasn't about wearing as little as possible.

The facts are there. Women have not achieved full equality because we are still objectified beyond belief. The rise of the Internet and the huge, gigantic market for pornography has left us more exposed than ever as the sex objects society likes us to be.
