Mandy, no one is saying that taking a pole dancing class means you have become a sex worker.
We are talking about "this brand of freedom" and what it means for women.
If you did not want such a discussion and merely wanted all your readers to agree with you that these Indian women are gaining freedom by signing up for pole dancing lessons, then you should have said so in your essay. It is pretty low to accuse non-Indians of being unable to identify with Indians and thus unable to make any judgement on your article, other than agreeing with you.
