Interestingly, if not unexpectedly, this is a position that has seemed to alienate me from both genders for as long as I can recall. I don’t mind that so much, since those whom I offend the most are the most firmly “encamped” in their roles. And I don’t really care to be liked by fundamentalists, or by anyone who holds an opinion above reason — especially an angry opinion. Plus, standing astride an ideological line permits me to do what I love to do the most — translate and make introductions — [...] […] I consider myself a feminist… and by that I mean that I am a man, who, though he is a man, is to all that is female and feminine an ardent and devoted fan.

One could certainly argue that it is not a healthy way to make a living, but isn't it truly up to the individual female to decide what is best for her life and her body? And for women who choose to participate in pornography, it IS a choice. That's not exploitation - that's Her Choice. I'm very sorry to have to inform Andrea Dworkin of this little fact, but that was the whole point of the feminist movement in the first damn place.
