A recent article in The Boston Globe asks, "What happened to the antiporn feminists?" Although a political debate about pornography still rages in the United States, civil liberatarians and cultural conservatives dominate the dispute, whereas antiporn feminists, who played a leading role in opposing pornography in the 1970s, have considerably less public presence. Antiporn feminism has similiarly dwindled in the academy where sex-positive feminist like Laura Kipnis and feminist-indentified porn artists such as Annie Sprinkle have gained favor in English, art history, and gender studies departments. Academics in the humanities today are more likely to critically analyze pornographic works than to protest againts them. Why has antiporn feminism (hereafter APF) lost ground, particularly among self-indentified feminists? Our Globe writer suggests that it is at least in part recent growth of the porn industry and, in particular, the explosion of Internet pornography that has weakned the antiporn case.
