First rude thing I ever sawOur Ginger Fuhrer's young life was scarred by the discovery of an end-of-the-pier 'What The Butler Saw' machine and a jazz mag shoved behind a toilet cistern. Tell us about the first time you realised that there was more to life than sweet shops and Friday night TV

Bobbi Starr has an interesting take on it.Starr considers herself a pro-sex feminist. Even though she acknowledges that some feminists consider pornography to be degrading to women, Starr asserts, "I don't feel degraded because it is my decision. I know that if I did ever feel degraded or feel uncomfortable, all I need to do is say no and it would stop. I don't think something where women have so much control in the situation can be considered degrading towards women.

Isn't it nice that she has control?Point still stands: just because some women have control doesn't make it any less exploitative and abusive for the women who don't.
I would also describe myself as a pro-sex feminist. However, I'm a pro-sex feminist who doesn't like seeing people being mistreated.
