Media Reviews
"The misogyny Andrea Dworkin decries is real enough-it is just not all of reality. Between women and men (often the same women and men) there is love as well as war. This may be an impossible contradiction, but it happens to be the contradiction on which our social order rests. A world view that defines male sexuality as pornography as rape leaves no room for mutual heterosexual desire, let alone love; yet a feminism that does not take heterosexuality seriously can neither comprehend the average woman's life nor spark a movement that might change it....I find 'Pornography's' relentless outrage less inspiring than numbing, less a call to arms than a counsel of despair." -- Ellen Willis
-- New York Times Book Review
