I'd recommend reading Gayle Rubin's letter to the editors of "The Feminist Porn Book" in Suzie Bright's blog for some history on the subject. http://susiebright.blogs.com/susie_brights_journal_/2013/03/the-feminist-sex-wars-and-the-myth-of-the-missing-middle.html I also recommend Dr. Marty Klein's article "Censorship And the Fear Of Sexuality" http://www.martyklein.com/censorship-and-the-fear-of-sexuality/ This is an old old discussion, going on at least 40 years at this point, and sadly facts don't seem to matter. -- Charles
