When I didn't know of radfem yet I already had many many issues with porn and its influence on sexuality, women and culture, but I never really saw libfems agree with me. They just hyperfocus on the individual: this one porn star is happy!/I LOVE anal! There's no problem with girls increasingly being pressured into degrading and painful sex acts!/etc

Anything else would be ''judgemental'' and forcing ideals on them or something, even though they have little to fear from me as a female feminist (what ''pressure'' would my simple opinion be?), as opposed to men who have systematic patriarchy backing them when they coerce women into things. My issues are with mainstream porn, not just the most violent or deranged.

I don't know why feminism took this route, I'm 25 myself so I haven't seen much of feminist history myself, but it seems like such an ''easy'' form of feminism. If men want to define womanhood we let them, and we try to frame our oppression as an empowering choice. We won't really take anything away from them... and everything is individualistic. The man who rapes due to porn? Oh, that's an isolated incident. Instead of pointing out the clear patterns, they stick to the ''but Steven is different!''/''Joanna loves being a prostitute so it's empowering!''/''Not all men/porn!''

And aside from that... feminists talk about male socialization and conditioning, and don't they think that porn is a major force of male conditioning? Can't they just look at even ''normal'' porn and wonder if that is what should shape male sexuality and arousal? It's as though when it comes to arousal and sexuality, all talk of culture goes out the window (or they have some minor complaints) and it's suddenly strictly personal.
