I'm not getting what the point of that Lifeshite article was. Porn that objectifies women and presents scenes of sexual abuse and violence is not a good thing? Well duh.
Feminists have been observing this since the 1970s, and arguing in support of sex-positive education that gives children and adolescents the tools to recognize the difference between coercive and consensual sexuality, and the means to act responsibly.
Oh. Wait. That's not what the Bible thumpers want, is it?
Of course. And then Lifeshite tells its readers to send them more munnee, right?
