"Not in my neighborhood w/Andrea Dworkin". feminist vhs archive. May 7, 2021.
"...There is a sexuality that is purported to be 'naturally' male in pornography. That is aggressive. That is violent in many cases. That certainly has to do with treating other flesh as a 'thing'....and...um, I think, I think that men have a lot of trouble with intimacy. And I don't think pornography helps. I think pornography serves to drive a wedge between men and other people."--John Stoltenberg, National Organization for Men.
Dr. Sharon Sutterfield, Director of the Program of Human Sexuality, University of Minnesota Medical School. "Pornography is fantasy fulfillment. Uh, that's what it's designed for. The notion that the bulk of pornographic content is violent is ridiculous."

Andrea Dworkin, (based out of NYC) co-author of anti-pornography ordinance, Minneapolis, MN.
"You can't make a distinction, when you talk about pornography, between sex and violence. In pornography, sex and violence are one word, they are one act, the are one point of view. I have seen pornography as a violation to the civil rights of women....I have discovered from my study of it (porn)...that there is an intellectual fog surrounding it, protecting it by those who want to protect it. Then you start looking at what it is, and what it actually does. It is a process of subordinating a whole class of people. Civil Rights means you can't do that. You can't, by someone's position at birth, assign them an insubordinate position in society. So the question is, why does everyone think it's okay to do it when it happens to women and it's called 'sex'?"
What happened to the mentality that could pull down the pants of rape culture and expose the taped wiener to the thigh of male dominance through violence, a prop for political and societal control using any prop necessary to appear huge and tough in a manly way? I am not pitting any support or adversary against drag culture, I am more for it than against it but not clear on if I should call transgender people the sex reassignment they are striving for. The political ramifications of this trend for sex re-assignment and gender-bending is so threatening it is absolutely part of the sex and rape/power continuum that confronts me in the form of death-threat mongering rapist hateful men and their women sitting comfortably, mostly smiling, in the background watching with smug assurance that the years of them playing their good girl bad skank roles have paid off, as they watch me being tortured non-stop they feel lifted up and entitled. Add the skin color dimension to that and you get not only women playing the porn roles but also of watching as the "Jewish" race gets the treatment they have been screaming in rage that they have gotten for centuries (but Jews have gotten it for thousands of years).
It's amusing to watch the Raygun video and hear commentary that doesn't come up now in the serious tone that is presented in this 80's video of interviews with women, mostly black, suffering from the Reagan-era "trickle-down" economy. One of the women is a white, apparently "middle class" woman. I think in our modern iteration, she has now become a viciously hateful MAGA proponent, absolutely thrilled that I am being blocked from all economic opportunity; more for her and her husband as they claim that one day all the whites will inherit the planet and everyone else will have to be the rape and pornographic victims of their brutal and violent men-folk so they don't have to bear the brunt any longer. Shoving it off to the easily ignored and silenced victims like me. The movie star who has been gloating and smiling after ordering my body to be scarred up, poisoned so badly I am covered with marks of poisoning, being scarred after being sliced every day for years, hair skin face body all ravaged my life turned into an endless fight for survival and to stop rape and violence and get any support. The men who join in are all on the same tangent (as these hate bots always are on the same phrase, the same reaction, they are all absolutely programmed from the same one-central centrifuge of power): but because my body is now damaged visibly to the point that it's hideously deformed and broken down, the skin has been doused with permanently damaging chemicals they are covered with liver spots from my body being so badly poisoned I have been stuck literally fighting to detox from stinking, hard and black poisons endlessly being poured into my body as I fight to rid my body of it. That I am not thin and plastic-surgery modified not blonde not with pure white skin and not playing a submissive "minority" minion role is the only excuse they need to mock and insult how badly deformed I am and thus not an immediate porn object for approval. The penalty is near-death and the person who has ordered this, who has fed off the violence because being "beautiful" is her one and true path to power and the more she obtains, the less she has to rely on physical appearance once and if this contract is finally obtained she can at least age a bit instead of having to rely on being a sex object for her "power" image. That I have been bereft of my health and beauty from years of torture and mutilation and poisoning has engendered not just NO compassion from the 99% who participate, but hate and actual violence for not appearing as a fashion model svelte and plastic-surgery modified for their porn approval for their masturbatory sense of male domination over women who MUST comply. It is, in essence, grounds for execution in their opinion. The only aspect of life that the women use to get the rapist and violent men to side with them is that I look and appear destroyed from years of their ordering absolute destruction upon my body which I have not been able to defend myself from. The men protect their porn images and while they all attack me for not appearing like I'm a dieting and thin blonde woman or of that ilk with plastic surgery facial modification and breast augmentation and etc---and they torture me for not "thinking" in the mold of silenced and kind of stupid, accepting minority "girl"-and thus the term "bitch" is endlessly yelled at me, "loser" and "nothing" and "shut up" but they keep asking me for ideas for themselves, including the rapist men, to steal for their output.
Because my brain is so encumbered by brain-altering technology, hacking blocking keyboard function so I must pound out every word and backspace and re-write as hackers block and delete and rewrite while I'm in the middle of struggling to get my ideas out--I can't elaborate further on this set of concepts.
It is sex combined with violence. It is power and body and woman-shaming. It is also racism for various races to attack someone who is not obeying the programming as they do and are under demand to do (under threat of death).
=========
Otherwise, my experience of drag society is from my uncle being the publisher of a gay (LGBTQ) Magazine from Arizona, and having worked for that mag in it's infancy back in the late 1980's. Like the "feminists" I have always encountered, the drag men participated or remained silent about the drama that was surrounding me concerning being drugged and then raped while sleeping due to brain implants. I can also add that no group has ever come forward to be actual decent human beings in that regard from any group on the planet (i.e. Christians) so, regardless of group identification, it truly takes an independent personality to rise above group affiliation and become a human being. I found that many of those who were most supportive of me had no outrageous group association and were more withdrawn and outside of flamboyant exhibitionism (Christians are sometimes exhibitionists). Regardless, I do not condone or condemn drag queens or Christians I just look for people who can break outside of the pornographic mold that has molded mindset of humanity for so long. Taboos are akin to pornographic restraints that people yearn to break in their secret lives. They remain ensconced in pornography whether they are in the strict guidelines of religion or the loose and wild froes of sexual "liberation".
