Since battery, incest and inequality flourished for thousands of years before the mass-market porn industry, it's unlikely that they're directly linked to "dirty pictures."
Porn is misattributed to the source of violence against women for the violence existed LONG before
women earn more money than men in the fields of modeling and pornography/prostitution. These areas, society tells us, are where a woman's value lies
society thinks women are only good for sexo
Prostitution is illegal in every state except Nevada; why then is pornography legal? What is the difference if a woman gets paid to perform an act of sex, or if she gets paid to perform an act of sex in front of a camera? How does a camera "legitimatize" the act?

One of the most frequent attacks on Twitter is that these activists are pimps pretending to be sex workers. This argument defeminizes sex workers into the masculine identity of a pimp and paints them as co-conspirators in trafficking. It’s a form of gendered shaming against female-identified sex workers that pits them over and against victimized women and girls
