In this lecture, author and professor Robert Jensen

In this lecture, author and professor Robert Jensen explores the realities of pornography. His analysis is rooted in a framework of sexual violence rather than seeing it pornography as an issue of expression or "fantasy." Consequently, his insights place pornography in its appropriate context within patriarchy.

It's a similar analysis to the one presented in his book "Getting Off: Pornography and the End of Masculinity".

To purchase his book from Amazon click on the image, or visit your local bookstore. Thank you.
