5. In ten years there is still no serious discussion of porn & it's negative impact on our culture.

Instead, one of America's major political parties is looking to redefine rape.



Look at this! In one year, count how many felt emboldened to put qualifiers on rape. Legitimate, honest, emergency! Like the other post in this thread, where a young girl tries to argue the 'merits' of porn, you'll note that there is a woman's voice in this mix, too. WTF?

The patriarchy is not going to be satisfied until they have total control over women, until they can do whatever they want with us, just like any other possession they own.

Real men want to share their lives with real women, not objects. We need them in this fight.

When I'm depressed about all this, I search out the video of the young men telling other young men that street harassment isn't cool. Going to go look for it, now.
