That suggests that society is becoming a bit more relaxed about the idea of women enjoying visual stimulation. Admittedly this is more in the Chippendales tradition of women ogling men, but it&#8217;s better than nothing.<\/p>\n<p>* I can&#8217;t find any reference to the &#8220;Cambridge Women&#8217;s Pornography Collective&#8221; beyond this book. I&#8217;m assuming it&#8217;s just a fictional creation meant to be a joke. The word &#8220;collective&#8221; with it&#8217;s overtones of 70s feminism is meant to subvert the long tradition of women opposing porn on feminist grounds. It seems a bit outdated, actually.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hmm.
