I really dont understand what the problems are here, you haven't even begun to give an anarchist solution to the 'issues' you raise and really have no idea what either of you are talking about. If you like you can say what you oppose in clear English and how you propose rectifying the problem.

All you've done is denounce porn but given no examples of how you would tackle the problems apart from 'banning it', which is impossible.

While I've given many examples of how women can free themselves from the exploitation, patriarchy and gender stereotypes of commercial porn and sex work and explore their own sexuality within anarchist or voluntary porn and sex work. I've no interest in how they do that, an individuals sexuality and lifestyle is there own private business as long as it doesnt harm anyone (which voluntary sex work doesnt do) and thats it, there is no 'women's sexuality' btw everyone's sexuality is unique. I've tried to find other feminists that agree with what your saying but I can't, they mostly agree with what I've been saying with only a few practical criticisms.


I've arranged some sex worker speakers to talk on this at the anarchist bookfair, it would be nice if Joy spoke for the prohibitionist side or however you want to argue it.
