Jo Weldon's Bibliography (Continued)
This is a list of books I've referred to when writing papers. As you'll see, I'm particularly interested in pornography. In my opinion, most of the feminist theory about pornography can be extrapolated to their positions on stripping, female dominance, prostitution, and other forms of sex work. However, feminist theory is not my only interest, nor do I think it should be the only concern of sex workers' rights activists.
Listings in bold are particularly relevant to interpreting media ethics.
