Neo-Liberalism and the Defanging of Feminism

[Waiting For Everyman]

29. Oh yes, I watched it all, and highly recommend it too.

I'm very glad you posted it, because I hadn't seen or heard of Dines before -- I don't get involved in the arguments much either. I completely agree with her. Her entire talk is very relevant, and she's very watchable.

There is not a thing empowering about porn, or the watered down version of it that we see in pop culture, which actually I see as just as big a problem because it is more accepted and has more influence on a wider population.

Porn broadly speaking, up to a certain point (violent, non-consensual, etc.) is going to be around to some degree, but that doesn't make it into a feminist flag to wave either. That is absolute nonsense.

Imo, "twerking feminist" is an oxymoron. If there's anything in this world that says "serving the patriarchy", it's that practice. Women need to get a clue and really think about that. Dines talk, in this video, would be a good place to start.
