I’m working on a sociology discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
How does MacKinnon’s view of violence and sexuality relate to your assigned reading? What is the social reality of that particular situation (revenge porn, Twitch, OnlyFans, pornography, etc.)? Is this part of violence against women? Is it sexual in nature? Is it about power? What are the implications of normalizing selling sex or normalizing women’s autonomy over their sexuality and control over their own profits? Is it empowerment or part of the same structure of misogynistic control? In essence, how does the idea that male dominance is part of a sexual hierarchy in the society fit with what you are reading? Lastly, what are your own experiences and interpretations on the subjects in your reading?
