Review
Contributors aren’t afraid to both objectively praise and criticize advances the industry has made (such as the way feminist porn has, for some, come to equate soft” porn, and prescribe stereotypes of female desire), and provide both practical ways to become a smart feminist or queer porn consumer alongside academic approaches to the movement. The collection also rightfully includes essays on racial, queer, and transgender representations in porn, topics often marginalized in this discussion. Besides being extremely thoughtprovoking, this must-read collection is accessible to all readers, and the topic inherently makes it engaging and fun.”Publishers Weekly (starred review)The voices that stand out most are those who’ve been traditionally either left out of mainstream porn or fetishized in a way that leaves them cold. After a historical overview from Betty Dodson, Susie Bright, and Candida Royalle, the book presents women who knowingly entered porn to make women like them more visible. From April Flores on plus-size porn to Tobi Hill-Meyer on trans women’s fight to be included at levels proportionate to trans men to Loree Erickson on disability in porn, each practically echo the other in conveying porn’s real-life impact.”The HairpinFor Taormino and other feminists involved in making and studying pornography, sexually explicit media provide an opportunity to critically engage with the relationship between identity and agency. By subverting and diversifying the often-stereotypical portrayals of sexuality found in much mainstream media, feminist pornographers invite traditionally marginalized audiences to connect with sex as a medium of pleasure and power. These explicit portrayals, grounded in a cognizance of pornography as both an industry and a cultural form, empower viewers to take charge while getting off.”Manifesta Mag"In terms both jarring and harrowing, women's bodies became the terrain on which the 2012 election was fought. That the choices, experiences, and consequences of women's sexual lives became fodder for such poorly informed national "conversations" is evidence of the pressing need for thoughtful, sex-positive scholarship which centers on women's sexual agency. The Feminist Porn Book is just such a contribution, and I predict this volume is going to find its way onto the bedside tables of several generations of American women. This volume brings together academics, activists, and porn entrepreneurs who have a startling array of interactions with pornography as an experience, a business, and a field of inquiry. This text is straightforward and informative in ways that are unfortunately rare in the multi-decade feminist struggle over porn. It's also fun and sometimes a bit naughty to read. The authors do not assume that the porn industry as it exists is the one essential and only possible incarnation of porn. Instead, they assume that when feminists engage, intervene in, produce, and study pornography, they can radically alter its formations and meanings. At the core of the book is the question: Can porn coexist with the principles of feminism? No matter how one ultimately adjudicates this question, The Feminist Porn Book leaves no doubt about the inherent value in the inquiry itself.” Melissa Harris-Perry, author of Sister Citizen: Shame, Stereotypes, and Black Women in America"Finally the time is right for feminist porn! This stunning collection by academics and artists in dialogue accounts for the massive changes in technology, erotics, modes of spectatorship, and embodied identities which impact the world of pornography. As this volume demonstrates, we are now far from the sex wars of the 1980s, the sex panics of the 1990s, and well into a new era of erotic representation. In order to make sense of new and emergent worlds of desiring bodies, trans-femininities and trans-masculinities, transgressive racial performance, and the erotics of disabled bodies, read The Feminist Porn Book, and when you are finished, go out and make some porn!"Jack Halberstam, author of Gaga Feminism: Sex, Gender and the End of NormalThe Feminist Porn Book is a knockout! If this doesn’t sway antiporn feminists to the pro-porn feminist side, I’ll eat my bra. Let’s come together right now!” Annie Sprinkle, feminist pornographer and eco-sex activist This thrilling anthology brings together scholars, producers, and fans of feminist pornography to define an emerging movement of gender and sexual visionaries, working at the radically inclusive and egalitarian edges of sexual representation. The authors explore an ever-widening range of body types, and a proliferating variety of images, sensations, and feelings. They examine the conditions of production as well as the politics of representation. They show us the new feminist porn as deep playchallenging, exciting, and important.” Lisa Duggan, author of Sapphic Slashers: Sex, Violence and American Modernity"Finally: academics are actually talking to sex industry workers, pornographers are doubling as theorists, and feminists have grabbed the cameras. The Feminist Porn Book sets the agenda for new ways of thinking about the sticky social relations of dirty pictures." Laura Kipnis, author of Bound and Gagged: Pornography and the Politics of Fantasy in America"This is the book that feminist scholars, teachers, students, and activists have been waiting for! Eloquent, smart, passionate, and engagingeach page of the The Feminist Porn Book offers a timely reminder of the continued importance of feminist interventions into the politics and production of pornography." Carol Stabile, director of the Center for the Study of Women in Society at the University of OregonIn this breakthrough collection, scholars, artists, and producers from across a spectrum of identities serve up profound new insights on making, consuming, and studying porn. This book advances my understanding of how porn works, when it doesn’t, and why it matters. The short essay format makes this book ideal for teaching, but it’s essential reading for anyone insterested in sexual politics or contemporary culture.” Richard Fung, video artist and professor, Ontario College of Art and DesignThe Feminist Porn Book is a readable and smart must-have for any classroom dealing with sexual representations.” Chuck Kleinhans, co-editor of JUMP CUT: a review of contemporary mediaTo have writings from so many of the most important creators in feminist porn in one anthology is wonderful. It captures the past, present, and future pioneering of this important film genre.” Shine Louise Houston, director and CEO of Pink and White ProductionsThis impressive volume of essays shows that thirty years after the feminist sex wars first erupted, porn is still a hot topic for the women’s movement, and for the scholarly study of gender and sexuality.

I adore this book. I bought kindle version for myself after sex-positive feminist friend recommended it to me, and then I bought paperback for my anti-porn feminist friend as a gift. Hope this book will change her point of view toward the porn.This book is compilation of many essays written by different authors of different kind of experience of porn. Some of them are porn stars, some of them are educators, editors, writers. Many information, many names. Many points of view from different angle. I really discovered a lot of thing I did not know about porn.
It's very helpful to have so many different and highly illuminating perspectives in a single volume. This book enables us to conceptualize pornography in a new and potentially positive way. I highly recommend it.
Highly informative and thought-provoking examination of the various audiences for pornography and how their needs are being met.
This is a fantastic book and I love that it has both academics and porn actors/directors contributing to it. Especially loved Ms.Naughty and Jane Ward's chapters.
Go watch a porn movie better than this book.
Loved it!
Nice collection of essays on pornography and feminism. This is sex-positive feminism, not the radical one.
What began as a special "niche" community and a pardox decades ago is quickly gaining steam.There's an incredible throughline through most of the essays that gives credit to trailblazers like Annie Sprinkle, Betty Dodson, Candida Royalle and Nina Hartley (2 of which are contributors, and Sprinkle very much "active"... all three individuals and many, many others blowing away the notion of being "too old" to be in the sex and pleasure industry.)And this special "niche" community still defies description. If you're like me, your faves are here, either contributing or being acknowledged: Tristan Taormino, Susie Bright, Patrick Califia, Xavier Hollander, Shine Louise Houston.What I can only describe as the "new wave" of porn are contributors: Buck Angel, Jiz Lee, April Flores, to name a few.This book is a mind-blowing compilation. I lack the writing ability to describe how exciting a book like this is for many of us who love the stores (Good Vibrations, Pleasure Chest,) the books (Cleis Press, anything Susie Bright), and the performers who, by simply insisting on being themselves, create porn and pleasure for those of us outside the mainstream.
