Pro-sex Feminism and "Do Me" Feminism

Pro-sex feminism places emphasis on sexual freedom and choice. It dates back to the 1980s and 90s, when pro-sex feminists began to push back on the anti-porn feminists of the 1970s to argue in favor of promoting genuine sexual pleasure free of guilt for women. These women argue that anti-porn feminists reinforce Victorian morality of shaming women for sex, and that these arguments are actually a step backward. Pro-sex feminists see sexual freedom as crucial to female equality. This movement has been critiqued for failing to acknowledge inequity beyond the sexual realm and for perpetrating neoliberal values. Further, it has been critiqued for perpetuating the idea that women are sex objects for male consumption.
