I Blame The Porno-iarchy

Intro/Definitions As I define those terms (dunno how other radical feminists define them): ‘Porno-iarchy’ or ‘pornoiarchy’: a patriarchal society invaded and controlled by pornography & the culture it has pornified, as well as a society upheld by men’s cruel needs for female sexual subordination.
