A Commitment To Sexual Equality With Males

Heterosexual Intercourse Is The Pure, Formalized Expression Of Contempt For Women's Bodies.

Pornography Is The Essential Sexuality Of Male Power: Of Hate, Of Ownership, Of Hierarchy; Of Sadism, Of Dominance.

We Are Born Into A World In Which Sexual Possibilities Are Narrowly Circumscribed. . . . We Are Programmed By The Culture As Surely As Rats Are Programmed To Make The Arduous Way Through The Scientist's Maze, And That Programming Operates On Every Level Of Choice And Action.

The Hurting Of Women Is . . . Basic To The Sexual Pleasure Of Men.

I Have To Ask You To Resist, Not To Comply, To Destroy The Power Men Have Over Women, To Refuse To Accept It, To Abhor It And To Do Whatever Is Necessary Despite Its Cost To You To Change It.
