How the Porn Industry Has Hijacked Our Sexuality
Summary
Pornography has moved from the margins of society into the very mainstream of American culture. From Internet pornography to MTV, sexualized images of idealized women and men jump off the screen and into our lives, in the process shaping our gender identities, our body image, and our most intimate relationships. In this multimedia presentation based on her acclaimed book, leading anti-porn feminist and scholar Gail Dines argues that the dominant images and stories disseminated by the multibillion-dollar pornography industry produce and reproduce a gender system that undermines equality and encourages violence against women. In direct opposition to claims that porn has delivered a more liberated, edgy sexuality, Dines reveals a mass-produced vision of sex that is at once profoundly sexist and deeply destructive?a vision that limits our ability to create authentic, equal relationships free of violence and degradation. The result is a fascinating introduction to the core arguments of the feminist anti-pornography movement
