妇女的权利:反对-Women's rights: Against

In her 1979 book Pornography: Men Possessing Women, Andrea Dworkin interprets pornography as 'training guides for committing sexual violence.' While this causal link rests on anecdotal evidence, Dworkin further contends that women reporting an experience of being sexually assaulted are not believed by men who view pornography. With the help of law professor Catharine MacKinnon and others, Dworkin began to form a framework for viewing pornography as a form of active discrimination and violence against women. They began by attempting to bring a lawsuit in for Linda Lovelace to stop showings of Deep Throat, who contended that she was raped throughout the making of the film. The suit failed due to the Statute of Limitations. They next attempted to draft a zoning law to keep adult bookstores out of residential neighborhoods, and again failed, this time due to free speech protection in the Supreme Court.

One of the groups challenging Dworkin and MacKinnon's work was a group calling itself the Feminist Anti-Censorship Task Force (FACT), which included authors Betty Friedan, Kate Millett and Adrienne Rich. They attacked Dworkin and MacKinnon's work as 'reinforcing sexist stereotypes'. Later, when Dworkin and MacKinnon proposed 'An Act to Protect the Civil Rights of Women and Children' (H. 5194) with Representative Barbara Hildt, the National Organization of Women (NOW) attacked the bill for taking the blame away from the criminals who committed the act, and placing it on the publishers, instead. In her book Defending Pornography: Free Speech, Sex, and the Fight for Women's Rights (1995), law professor and former ACLU president Nadine Strossen points to Censorship as the true enemy of women's rights, not pornography. She argues that censorship is used to repress information relevant to women, and, by arguing for 'pro-censorship,' people like Dworkin and MacKinnon are actually doing more harm than good.
