The spotlight needs to be shined on the demand side of porn for once. Enough with examining and analyzing the female performers to death. It's the men who masturbate to scenes of women being sexually abused, men who consider women to be disappointing versions of porn videos, who need picking apart.

You didn't mention the horrible "facial abuse" clips they showed. That poor woman with the "latina abuse". Seriously that shit was traumatizing. I could barely watch what they were doing to her. How terrifying that there are people that get off from that. I found images in this film are hard to erase from my mind.

Thanks. I feel sometimes like my friends see criticism of the porn industry as somehow un-feminist, but am I crazy to be a little nervous around campus thinking that (for all I know) most of the boys around me masturbated last night to a women getting violently sexually assaulted?

So I watched the documentary and like most people was pretty disgusted. This is controversial, but isn’t it possible that *maybe* having all these videos online that boys watch that glorify women being raped or forced into performing various sexual acts desensitizes them to the ugly reality of sexual assault and *may*…

I’ve gone back and forth on how i feel about this subject, but this documentary really bothered me, especially the clips they showed from the forced blow job website. There is scene of the “Duke University Porn Star” being called a ‘feminatzi’ on camera and then receiving forceful oral sex to the point where she…

Porn is not inherently tied to exploitative labor practices, but the idea that it is—replicated by talent agents, producers, and documentaries alike—only strengthens that tie.

There’s no such thing as non-exploitative porn. There is such a thing as non-exploitative sex, but porn is a business.

And to trot out a…

I’m feeling super hopeful. A very, very powerful man can be knocked down a peg for saying something awful that a little while ago would have passed unnoticed. Progress.

in the ‘70s they used to call these pills ‘thigh openers.’”

Cheating is a big deal. How can one trust their partner after they cheat on them? They can say they won’t do it again, but actions speak louder than words. There’s also the possibility of bringing home STD’s and surprise babies.

Here here. The fact is, men have been cheating on their wives forever. Stupid studies like this do more harm than good.

Dear dudes,

I want to know how many of these badass ladies are getting a little action on the side themselves. Just because a man earns more does not mean he won’t cheat. How about we not put effort into studies like this and instead focus on empowering women. Because this whole study reads to me like, “Hmm how can we find a way…

Happy, right wingers? With your anti-abortion crusading and economic policies that only benefit the wealthy you've finally succeeded in turning us into a third world theocracy. Good job!

I’d just like to take a moment so say, “Fuck you very much!” to all the pro-choice people who decided being “fiscally conservative” and/or “tough on terror” was more important than protecting civil and human rights and voted for the assholes who stacked the federal courts with these fascists.

These fucking psychos won’t be happy until texas women are dying from uterine infections and unlicensed mexican abortion drugs. They want hospitals to bring back the failed abortion wings because woo the real 50’s was so fucking fun you guys!

I’m just going to say this: if you think Hillary Clinton isn’t progressive enough for your vote, consider that the next president could appoint up to four Supreme Court justices, and then consider the types of people that someone like Rubio, Cruz, Bush, Christie, Huckabee et. al would appoint. They probably be worse…

They’re everywhere. Misogyny knows no borders and religion is one excuse.

It’s not her platform. It’s her last 40 years and her legislative history. Just one example: as I was going through her sponsored bills, back in ‘08 (because I, like many other residents of Iowa, am a diligent caucusgoer), I came across one that would’ve changed the definition of “part-time student” to “taking one…
