My main issue with pornography etc. is that a fair portion of women in the sex trade/ business have a history of sexual abuse... I don't have any studies to back me up but I have known 4 women in the sex industry (stripping)and they were all sexually abused... plus I saw a documentary about a porn star, and she had been sexually abused. I may be wrong though...
But, on the other hand, I feel like it's not really my business.
Thanks for that comment.
That's pretty much the crux of the situation.
I know there's something wrong somewhere, but why is it my business, anymore than any other harms in this harmful world?
It bothers me because my husband uses it. Period.
But it continues to bother me, twenty years later.
WHY does it bother me this much?
Sure, I'm a radical feminist, but there's plenty of things to be bothered about under that category. Female genital mutilation. Clitoridectomies. Rape.
Why does this one thing just stick so hard in my craw that I've been choking on it for twenty years??
I really don't know, and was hoping maybe you all could enlighten me.
