anti-pornography feminism

Anti-pornography feminism is a perspective within feminism that critiques pornography for its potential to harm women by objectifying and dehumanizing them, often reinforcing sexist attitudes and violence. Advocates argue that pornography can contribute to gender inequality and exploitation, and therefore, should be challenged or regulated. This stance emphasizes respecting women’s dignity and autonomy, and sees the fight against porn as part of broader efforts to address gender-based violence and stereotypes. However, it also sparks debates about free expression and personal choice.
