About this title: Catharine MacKinnon shows how pornography can only be treated as "speech", as the law at present defines it, if the voices of women, abused and humiliated by it, are both silenced and denied. She also portrays the language of pornography, showing it to be both lethal and debasing.

"Militant feminism. This book basically says all sex - including heterosexual and homosexual consensual - is bad because it subordinates and takes advantage of women.
You have to give some credit to MacKinnon for her radicalism, but I feel at this point, we've moved beyond this type of thinking."
"It's extreme from the very beginning, but there are some subtleties hidden in all of that pomp. The way McKinnon adheres to her beliefs is admirable to a fault, for it is when she only argues and no longer supports her claims that she falls from her convincing stance. Women, men, and choices are all taken for granted. The questions for her answers bring about a kind of reaction that rivals a heart attack at 50,000 feet. Nope, I can't stand her. I do, however, appreciate the things she forces into my head."
"She's crazy, but damn, she's interesting. Although I can't say I agree with her central thesis, I'm curious to see how her ideas about group defamation and a balance of speech and equality (1st and 14th amendments, that is) play out. um, I guess I need to think about this more.
Highly recommended if you're at all curious about an extreme feminist opinion on pornography and speech."
