was old and irrelevant in the age of only fans sorry ms dworkin
If I were to write this book, I would write it nothing like this. Her arguments (if you can even call them that) were incoherent, senseless, patchwork rambles that fall limp under the terrible writing. Why are we talking about lasers and Hitler? Why are we talking about women being logs? Why are we talking about Sade’s life instead of the PORN HE WROTE? Isn’t that what this book was meant to be about? Why are we quoting a thousand different random people then just saying ‘they’re wrong and I’m right’ without trying to actually develop and coherently tackle their arguments individually? The writing style and structural flow was terrible, it made me so angry to read it just because of how badly things were argued. I was not convinced by anything, it really needed some statistics or concrete arguments, or just a hefty bit of editing. Some things were dismissed in one sentence while the most inane, basic arguments occupied pages. I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone and I won’t be reading more of her books. It’s not even worth the paper it was printed on. And i understand she’s famous and continues to be read for many reasons, but this book was like a high school feminism essay that forgot what it originally set out to argue within the first 20 pages then just added loads of Freud to pad it out to a word count.

Lots of "let her cook" moments and lots of pages pointlessly lost on confusion seques on gay men, Jews, lasers, every last line in Story of the Eye. Politically not my thing but at least she knew her way around a sentence.
