Feminists make porn to fight sex objectifying.

[quote]"If it's possible to have sex in a feminist way, it's possible to record it in a feminist way," says Pandora Blake, a 29-year-old London-based sex worker, pornographer and porn performer. In recent years, feminist porn producers and performers have settled on a rough agreement on how to shoot pornography that empowers rather than demeans women and depicts authentic female sexuality rather than the presumed fantasies of the stereotypical straight man. "Performers can negotiate what kind of safer sex practices they want to do, whether its dams or condoms or gloves, what kind of sexual activities they're prepared to do, they can choose their scene partners," says Stardust Feminist porn is political - men, women, transgender people, gays, lesbians, self-identified "queer" people, straight people, disabled people, people of colour, fat people - all are filmed on their own terms and express their own sexuality, industry figures say.[/quote] Let's be honest here......Porn is porn no matter how you look at it. they are doing the exact thing the porn industry does under the title "Feminism porn" is quite silly. There is porn made for women and porn made for men, some porn caters to both.....hell a lot of girls would rather see 2 girls have sex than 2 men so they are just generalizing men here and blanking out the reality. As for that last part in the quote.....last I checked porn already exists of people in those categories and cross overs, it's nothing new and those "performers" choose what they will and won't do. What do you think?

  • It's a much more complicated issue than anyone here would admit, it's stupid to say porn doesn't have an effect on the way people think, all possible evidence says it does, the question that remains is what the effects are, generally it's attributed to a lack of respect for women because of the way porn is shot. It's shot in such a way that any males in it are basically just props whilst the women are the centerpiece, I doubt anyone here's noticed but have you ever looked at the guys in porn? They're not exactly going to win awards for performance. But see, that's the thing that's the actual problem, men are represented horribly, so much so that guys think it's an appropriate way of acting during sex (If anyone has Netflix, Louis C.K. has a great routine based on this concept) and women are represented as just moaning pleasure devices. I think the issue with the feminist argument is that feminism calls this problem "Patriarchy" as they believe it comes from a male-dominated society, even though they do recognise it's not fair on men either, but really because it's not fair on either sex it's more like anti-humanity, focusing on the worst parts of us and making us feel bad for them, what's even worse is when people bash the concept of porn being anything but perfect for the sake of preserving masculinity or the porn industry, neither's going anywhere, but it's about time we took a look at them and said they need to change.
