Sex is great! Porn is great! But also, sometimes not. Maya and Rebecca dig deep into the longstanding feminist debates around sex work, porn, and sex positive feminism, uncovering how both sides are mostly right… and also frequently wrong.
While Stryker claims to feel sadness over the (often quite vicious) divides among feminists, she goes on to label the supposed two camps of feminists as sex negative and sex positive. No. Noooooo. This is so, so wrong. This characterization is responsible for so many misconceptions around feminism and what women s collective empowerment looks like and I m baffled that anyone who is familiar with the theory, arguments, and history of the feminist movement could frame it in this way.
