Explain pornography and the culture of pornography.

Discuss pornography and the culture of pornography.
Specifically, MacKinnon refers to the “violation” of women. Frame this within the re-exploration of
sexual history in the Chapter 2 reading. Feel free to talk about examples from your own personal
experience or to bring in your own opinions. Engage with your classmates to foster a detailed and
thought-provoking discussion. Even if you already have two posts, you can always reply
more!Some things to consider while you discuss:
When women sell their sexuality is it empowerment or objectification? When is it either, neither,
or both?
Consider recent trends of body positivism and self-empowerment, taking agency over your own
sexuality, as well as disturbing trends of revenge porn. Take a look at the Recommended
readings to familiarize yourself if you want to expand the discussion.
