Abstract
I propose that the ‘theory’ behind feminist pornography is demonstrably different from the ‘theory’ of mainstream pornography. Alison Butler says “women produce feminist work in a wide variety of forms and styles” (3), and this applies to feminist pornography as much as to any other feminist cultural practice. Angela McRobbie calls for “feminists... to be more present again in current public debate on [pornography], since a good deal is at stake” (11). This research attempts to turn a feminist lens onto pornography, to articulate the differences between feminist and mainstream pornography and understand how feminisms are (or aren’t) being performed in these films.
