Anti Porn Rhetoric Lacks Solid Evidence
I’d like to thank ethicist Leslie Cannold for writing this on her blog today. It’s an excerpt from a longer essay called Pornography’s Effects: The Need for Solid Evidence by Ronald Weitzer. You can read the full thing here. The essay, published in the journal Violence Against Women, points out that a lot of the rhetoric of Gail Dines and other anti-porn campaigners is not backed up by any solid Read More …
Beware These Skewed Statistics About Porn “Addiction”
Gail Dines is doing the rounds and she’s back in Australia promoting censorship of porn, saying that “there is no room for porn in a just society.” The response to that is a whole other blog post (although I have 2 comments on that story).

The “Pornified” Woman?

Unfortunately The Guardian likes to give her lots of space to do this. Her latest salvo was from the AVN expo in Las Vegas. Aside from her usual generalisations, she offered this particuarlly offensive paragraph: One of the seminars Read More …
How Sex With Your Head In A Toilet Bowl Can Be OK
Brooklyn, the haughty, dominant lesbian pauses in her frantic fisting and then whispers in the ear of Vai, her moaning, submissive female partner. She points to the toilet her lover is leaning on. “Do you want to put your head in there?” Vai, panting and flushed as the result of several gushing orgasms, looks a little hesitant. “Is it clean?” she asks. Brooklyn nods. And so the eager submissive lifts Read More …
