1. France, Alternative Libertaire AL #283 - A reader's e-mail:
the obscure clarity of feminist pornography (fr, it, pt) [machine
translation] (a-infos-en@ainfos.ca)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Message: 1
Following the article " feminist frames for a cinema X " in Alternative libertaire of
March, a reader wished to react. The monthly Alternative Libertarian publishes articles
that reflect the orientations of AL, but it is also enriched sometimes with other points
of view and analyzes, if they do not seem antagonistic. It is therefore fair that some
articles are debating. ---- AL Commission Committee ---- Pornography would be ennobled
with a new genre: " feminist " pornography . The sexual acts filmed would be respectful
of women, centered on the diversity of bodies and desires, far from the phallocratic
stereotypes of the public pornography. It is to forget that, whatever the adjectives and
the decorations, the pornography is above all of the prostitution filmed.
Etymologically, " pornography " means "to represent prostitution ". It is also
symptomatic that defendants of " feminist " pornography are also in favor of regulating
prostitution and against penalizing " clients ". This " feminist " porn is especially
a new commercial niche for egocentric consumers: they and they think to distinguish
themselves by claiming a use of porn as we go to the organic market: it is more safe and
respectful.
Down with " the great capitalist productions " was it possible to read ! How can we not
see a recovery of the revolutionary power of feminism in the face of the danger it
represents for this industry ?
Pornography is a component of the pimp system that relies on the sexual exploitation of
women, such as prostitution or surrogacy. Whether it is feminist or not, someone is
paying someone for the use of their being and their body. This is an economic constraint
in the vast majority of cases. The constraint to characterize rape, anyone benefiting from
these crimes (customers, producers, broadcasters) is complicit.
