"Somehow, as sex positivity went mainstream and fused with a culture shaped by pornography, attention to emotion got lost."

"Sex-positive feminism became a cause of some of the same suffering it was meant to remedy. Perhaps now that the old taboos have fallen, we need new ones. Not on sex, but on callousness and cruelty."

That's the concluding paragraph of Michelle Goldberg's new column, "Why Sex-Positive Feminism Is Falling Out of Fashion" (NYT). 

When I first read the headline, my snap answer to the question "why" was: Because the sex-positive feminists got old. Young people have the delusion that they are the first human beings to truly experience sex as it's meant to be. They get older and imagine they've discovered critique that's different and better than what those who've gone before them were ever able to perceive.

I've been reading and talking about sex and feminism for 50 years, so things have cycled around at least 3 times, and I myself have been many different ages. I must say I'm a bit impatient with — bored by — efforts to recount the historical phases of American feminism that do not struggle with the disruption that had to do with Bill Clinton and protecting the interests of the Democratic Party. 

But there are so many men to protect — husbands, boyfriends, present and future. Most people don't keep feminism at the top of their priorities, so it's going to get distorted into the shape they want it to be. Is pornography the subordination of women? You'll never get an accurate answer. Is your interlocutor in love?
