In class this week we studied the different supporting and opposing positions on whether pornography should be regulated. While the opposing positions are very strong, I think I am more convinced by the Liberal Feminist position.
The chapter, "That Special Shimmer" in Outspoken, was very interesting and it portrayed the life of Annie Sprinkle. She is a captivating women and her story is fascinating. She labels herself as a feminist, lesbian, and a champion of sex. One of my favorite parts of the chapter, was when "Annie recast herself as an artist, she claimed the right to speak for herself and to choose her own sexual identity, an options not available to all women, or, as she points out, to her for most of her career."
