When Porn Goes Bad: "Girls Gone Wild"

I am hereby changing my mind.

I am officially and publicly declaring that I was mistaken, and am shifting my position.

Not about porn in general. But about one particular brand of porn.

Specifically, the "Girls Gone Wild" videos.

And the way I'm changing my mind is illustrating one of the most important points I've been making about it.

Thus begins my latest piece on the Blowfish Blog, When Porn Goes Bad: "Girls Gone Wild." To find out why I'm changing my mind about the "Girls Gone Wild" videos -- and what this change of heart illustrates about some common feminist critiques of the porn industry -- read the rest of the piece. (And if you feel inspired to comment here, please consider cross-posting your comment to the Blowfish Blog -- they like comments there, too.) Enjoy!
