One of the nice things about procrastination is that sometimes when you read a magazine that's been sitting in the unread stack for eight years, you find a real gem, like this Laura Kipnis review of Dworkin (plus a couple of then-recent "stop slutting and get married" books) from 2007. Kipnis has no end of fun taking Dworkin's arguments apart, even while admiring Dworkin's over-the-top style: "don't try to follow the logic; just revel in the dystopia."

Thank you for sharing that! I'm fascinated by how sexuality is regulated through different discourses and even though I don't study or really read up on it that much, I do like keeping up with anti-porn rhetoric.

Fun fact I just recently learned: there actually was an ancient Greek colony that outlawed pornography, Massalia (modern day Marseille)! The more things change, etc.

"So it only makes sense that he would go hunting down the source of that targeted attack: viruses embedded in porn videos, duh."

There really is no honor among thieves is there.

"Webb explains he’s ready to “make a joyful noise unto the Lord,..."

I checked out Layla Rivera's porn profile. I bet I know what that joyful noise was.
