Listen Up
So, today I'm using ICT to avoid having to post my own thoughts and instead encourage you to listen to someone else's thoughts.
The book Female Chauvinist Pigs: Women and The Rise of Raunch Culture was originally released in August 2005 but came out in paperback in October of this year. I didn't read it because I initially misunderstood what the book was about... Until I was sent a link to an interview the author gave on NPR.
Now I can't wait to read it. I must admit, I am very much Dworkin-ist, anti-porn feminist. I'm not going to go into that right now, but I urge you all to listen to the interview, go to your local feminist (or other independent book store), buy the book, read it, and e-chat about your reactions. It should provoke some interesting discussions.
