That's right, Demonista. You don't have to respond to anything you don't want to...

I guess you don't want to do that anti-porn paper debunking porn myths anymore, or do you still? :?

I read the whole carnival, including your interview. I noticed you became a feminist at a very young age. Quite a luck! All the Carnival interviews were so great... Have you read mine yet, btw? Just wondered...

:) hey maggie.

i do still want to, but you're the only solid yes i've gotten. allecto was interested, but didn't know what TPOP was, and i gave her a link to the film, but don't know if she's on board with us :)

Hey, I watched the documentary. It was brilliant. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

I had never seen pornography before watching this documentary. It affected me really bad. I couldn't stop thinking about the torture of those women. It is so unbelievably fucked up. I don't know if I could cope with reading the stupid people who are arguing against the documentary and in favour of porn. I can't understand how anyone can't see porn for the woman-hating torture that it is. It makes no sense to me that anyone could argue that it is feminist. If so then the word has lost any kind of meaning or purpose.

It was pretty good. And it is an extreme shock to egalitarian sensibilities :( I should have warned you. Don't worry about not wanting to read them: it's a lot of the typical, fucked up, purposeful rubbish and twisting of our side. if feminism doesn't mean SOMETHING, it means and is nothing. but that's what they want, isn't it?

hahahaha...is embarrassed, here's where i realise i didn't notice your actual last paragraph.

yes, i did become feminist at a tender age :P they were! i did read yours, it was sad and not sad at the same time. i'm sorry you had to go through that with asshole men, eg your dad and boyfriends...that one boy = fucking rapist.

Thanks, Demonista. :(

Please let me know when you want me to help you on this anti-porn paper. And maybe Allecto could help too. I still need to watch the movie though; I will, it's linked to my blog... but I have no doubt that watching the pornographic parts will be hard for me, as it would be triggering...
