First: I don't mind.
But the reasonings I've read so far are really, really twisted. Most people point to Bayonetta being a murderous, sadistic, hyperviolent protagonist as a proof that she's "in control of her sexuality". So does that mean that the only "legitimate" depiction of sex is if it's violent?
That's mindboggling, and it's just so American again, I'm sorry to say. My problem with Bayonetta is not that it's a sexist game (I'd say it is, she's basically pole dancing through the game), but that it's bloody and cruel. I've played a bit of it and I was appalled. Torture attack? Punishment? Ripping off an enemies head and punching its torso with it, with a seductive smile on her face? What is wrong with people?
And don't give me the "but the enemies are not humans, they're angels and demons" nonsense.
Have fun with the game everyone, It looks stylish and is very polished. But it's the kind of content I'd rather not see on a Nintendo console.
