antiporn-activist:

panoramaofhell: kartari: i want to shield all teenage girls from sex positive feminism stay away from those people theyre toxic and dont actually care about you i’m not trying to start anything when i ask this, i’m truly confused and curious, but what exactly do you mean by sex positive feminism? what aspects about it are toxic? anyone with some free time wanna take this one?

I’m asexual AND a sex-positive feminist. I’m a sex-positive feminist AND I’m against the porn industry. Not because of the sex itself but because of the exploitation and the perpetuation of rape culture it promotes. When we say “women should own their own sexualities” we’re not saying “women should have sex, and it’s always okay”. I know some people are naive as fuck, but you can be a sex-positive feminist and still be aware that there is a power imbalance and that in a lot of cases when women say “I’m doing this because I want to” it’s not entirely true even when they think so. But this is something we must solve by discussing it, not by shaming sex. Idk.
