I was all set to laugh her off as an amusing internet mentalist, but then I sat and thought for a while, and honestly, I have a hard time rebutting her comments with regard to the women in Firefly on a purely literal, deconstructionist reading of the text, in which authorial intent is not a factor. Personally, while I wouldn't doubt that Whedon's heart is in the right place, I do think the sexual politics expressed in his work are, well, iffy.
