"This is by far the best and most significant of these recent books. It comes from Spinifex, a feminist press in Australia, where radical feminism is prospering rather more than in the U.S. (Spinifex was recently profiled by Barry, 2016). With 40 solid chapters, this is the richest such feminist collection since Laura Lederers (1980) Take Back the Night: Women on Pornography and/or Diana Russells (1983) Making Violence Sexy: Feminist Views on Pornography." Robert Bannon in Dignity: A Journal on Sexual Exploitation and Violence
