And that’s your opinion. My roommate did OF and she said it felt like she was reclaiming her sexuality and womanhood, yea men were buying it but she was doing it for her and not for the men who wanted it. Hence why im so on the fence about SW in general.

It’s not an opinion. We live in a patriarchal society and that’s a fact.

Only fans = selling your body. I’m happy your roommate felt good doing it, but for women who don’t have the option whether they can use their body as revenue or not, it’s not right

Access to your body should never be normalized because it leads to an ongoing cycle of objectification of women and violence by men.

Just because you have the option doesn’t mean it’s a feminist choice

Yes and that’s a society/patriarchy issue. Whether porn is ethical or not can’t be accurately answered because of the society and the larger ideas about sex and gender roles in general

You can’t escape society or the patriarchy. I think there are ways to reclaim your sexuality without only fans. Porn cannot be ethical in this society

I deeply disagree with this statement. I think people can break out of patriarchal norms within their own circles. Restricting people’s right to their body and how they choose to share their body is a very slippery slope that leads in the infantilization of women and leans into a purity culture that demonizes those that don’t conform to a general norm. We’re both against the objectification of women and violence by men but I were coming at it from different angles.

Yes and it continues to allow sex and sexuality to be seen as dirty, taboo, sinful when it’s literally none of those. I would even include amateur homemade porn to be empowering even. Certain aspect of the SW industry helps a lot with the normalization of sex and women’s bodies.

I think there are better ways to normalize the female body. I honestly think that if the main consumers are main and you are tailoring your content to get money from your male customers, all the positive aspects you guys are listing vanish. I don’t think this is “purity culture” but I think it is the consequences of living in a patriarchy.

I also think that this is so damaging for women across the world who do not have a choice in their career. It allows men to continue to see women as objects. Again, not women’s fault, but it’s the society we live in. I don’t think women should contribute to only fans or pornhub because it enables the patriarchy.

My views are pretty radical and I expect people to say I’m contributing to “puritan culture” LOL but honestly conservative and so called puritan culture feeds off of the submission of women and the easy access of women’s bodies by men.
