Andrea Dworkin (1946-2005) was a prominent feminist writer best known for her opposition to pornography on the grounds that it provides men with fantasies of degrading, humiliating and controlling women.[1] She expressed hostility toward men and called herself a lesbian, yet lived with and married a homosexual man.[2]
Notes
- ↑ Dworkin ... became a strong voice for the position that pornography is a tool by which men control, objectify, and subjugate women. [1]
- ↑ "Dworkin, as it happens, lived with a man, whom in 1998 she married." (The Guardian)
