"Feminist Porn Is Crucial"
Juno star Ellen Page gave a big thumbs up to feminist porn in a Reddit AMA question thread, says this article. Ellen said:
I think we are in a very scary time right now. The rhetoric from the right wing is terrifying to me. I think feminist porn is crucial. To only have porn from the male perspective is damaging. Women are sexual creatures, as much as men and that needs to be embraced.Courtney went to a lot of effort to point out that feminist porn should not be termed "porn for women". In the News article she went further and said:
"With no offence meant to the folks who label their porn this way, 'Porn For Women' is a marketing construct about as legit as the Bic 'Pen for Her' products - set up by large adult film studios to affirm that women are not part of the general consumers of pornography, which may have been true 20 years ago when we weren't granted equal access to pornography, but not now".
As someone who has spent 13 years marketing my content as "porn for women" I tend to disagree. I've written a response to this at Ms Naughty blog: “Porn For Women” Is Not Analogous to “Bic Pens For Women”

What Is Feminist Porn?
Feminist porn is, of course, feminist. While the definition of feminism may vary and mean different things to different people, it's fair to say that feminist porn seeks to promote equality in the depiction of sex. That equality doesn't just extend to heterosexual, cisgender women but to all sexualities, genders, classes and races. The feminist philosophy behind it is one that rejects rigid definitions of sexuality and sex roles.From "Fabulous Feminist Porn", an article by Ms. Naughty at Feminist Porn Guide
Feminist porn is also part of the wider sex positive movement. Being sex positive is about accepting all aspects of human sexuality with an open and positive mind, embracing sex as a healthy activity and promoting sex education and safe sex.
