Andrea Dworkin
How can anyone love someone who is less than a full person, unless love itself is domination per se?

Any violation of a woman's body can become sex for men this is the essential truth of pornography.

Andrea Dworkin

Andrea Dworkin

Women, for centuries not having access to pornography and now unable to bear looking at the muck on the supermarket shelves, are astonished. Women do not believe that men believe what pornography says about women. But they do. From the worst to the best of them, they do.
Andrea Dworkin
The utopian male concept which is the premise of male pornography is this--since manhood is established and confirmed over and against the brutalized bodies of women, men need not aggress against each other in other words, women absorb male aggression so that men are safe from it.
Andrea Dworkin
Male supremacy is fused into the language, so that every sentence both heralds and affirms it.
Andrea Dworkin
Seduction is often difficult to distinguish from rape. In seduction, the rapist often bothers to buy a bottle of wine.
