Asa Akira - Just Because I Do Porn Doesn't Mean I'm Not a Feminist

ASA AKIRA: JUST BECAUSE I DO P--- DOESN'T MEAN I'M NOT A FEMINIST By Asa Akira SEPTEMBER 3.2014 SHARE PHOTO BYVAN STYLES If you're not a feminist, I think you're an a------. But that doesn't mean the word itself doesn't suck. I'd group "feminist" -along with "bisexual." "nympho," or even "blogger" -as words that define who I am but still make me cringe every time l hear them. My sexuality is so much more complicated than what "bisexual" would imply. "Nympho" feels downright insulting I am affected with "excessive sexual desire"-just as the dictionary defines it-but the word doesn't seem to celebrate my sexuality so much as medicalize it. "Blogger" is just the worst. I can't think of a job description that could make me take someone less seriously.And when I hear "feminist," I'm guilty of immediately envisioning a man-hatingwoman who refuses to shave, wear a dress, or f--- doggy-style. The world has (conveniently!) painted the most unappealing picture of "feminist" as possible, and I am subject to those presumptions, even though I should know better I think my distaste for the term also comes from the fact that so many try to use their definition of the term against me. As if I'm the problem. I have sex for money, so I'm not a feminist? l portray sexual fantasies on screen for entertainment, so I'm nota feminist? I like to wear makeup and feel sexy, so l'm not a feminist? F--- you. l'm a feminist. Feminism is about gender equality, and the things I listed have nothing to do with that. In fact, l'll go as far as to say it should just be called "humanist." Or "gender equality-ist." Whether you're a male or female, black, white, Asian, whatever-if you're a humarn being you should be a fuckingfeminist! Really, there shouldn't even be such a thing as feminism. It's embarrassing that women striving for equality is even a thing in 2014. We are half the population. Do we really need an advocacy group to fight for equal rights as the other half of the human race Yes. It's pathetic, but we do. A number of people think it's ironic that I consider myself a feminist. "You are a p----star, therefore anti-feminist," is what people say all the time.I would urge them to consider these points Feminism is defined as the movement for women to obtain economical, political, and social equality to men. Economically, it's no secret that in many professions, women make less than men-on average 82 cent on the dollar of what men make doing the same ob. This is where p--- thrives: women make twice, thrice, up to four or five times as much as our straight, male counterparts. Now take a second to think about a sexually promiscuous man. No, really: envision him. Let me guess. Odds are, you thought of a tall good-looking rich Playboy-type. Ok, now try to picture a woman who has just as much sex It's likely that many would picture someone damaged, a victim of her upbringing and circumstances. Why is that?Why can't a sexually voracious woman be seen as a winner in the same way as a guy who sleeps with a hundred girls? Because social inequality. Women should be allowed the luxury of beingjust as sexual as men. Awoman who wants to have sex with lots of men, and does so, regardless of what society may think of her, should be celebrated as a feminist, not shunned for holding the movement back, like many would say. She is an important part of redefining norms about what's acceptable for women to do, as being equal to what's okay for men to do. Politically, to say the p--- industry is anti-feminist is laughable. As performers, we women exercise our rights to the highest degree. We express ourselves freely, publicly,for the whole world to see, just as men have been doingfor a very longtime. Withirn the industry,ourvoices are heard just as loudly as the men's. I've never once felt that a male's opinion meant more than my own. Which is more than I can say for the general political system: How many people didn't take Hilary Clinton seriously as a presidential candidate, simply because of her gender? So, what exactly about me doing p--- is anti-feminist? Many would say I degrade myself, capitalize on the ideology of men, and present myself as a sexobject. And they would be right. But it's what I choose to do, because l want to. Whether you understand this desire or not,whether or not you share my urge, and whether you are a man or a woman, it's counterproductive to feminism to tell me l can't do what I want. The fight is not with me, or p---, or wearing makeup to make oneself look better. And, as I so often have to remind myself, it's certainly not with what the movement is officially labeled. The fight is with inequality.I refuse to back down to anyone who holds double standards for the sexes. Political and social stigmas should have nothing to do with gender. Men and women should be equal, in every aspect. Period, Whether we're having sexwith hundreds of people for money or completely abstinent. And as for me, for now, I will just have to be content with calling that "feminism." Asa Akira is a p--- actor and author of Insatiable: P----A Love Story. Follow her on Twitter.

Dear Devin As a woman in tech, I'm sure you understand that I get many, many letters meant to harass and intimidate me. l've come to judge them on several criteria, including but not limited to 1. Creative use of metaphor 2. Correct grammar and punctuation 3. Impact 4. Narrative structure Does this letter make me feel bad? Does it scare me? Does it make me feel game development is such a toxic environment that I should quit? Is there are original thought here? Do I feel like our public school systems are preparing people to tackle the world of the 21st century? Those answers by the way, were no, no, no, not particularly, and no. My suggestion to you is - really up your commitment to being as a------. If you're going to be a pathetic d------- that sits at his computer screen trying to scare and intimidate women BE THE BEST D------- YOU CAN BE. Don't settle for mediocrity. l believe in you, Bri
