LOS ANGELES — Mindbrowse and Sssh.com will host a livestreamed webinar, titled "When Demand & Rejection Collide: Anti-Porn Activism in a Pro-Sex World," on Twitter this Tuesday, March 1 at 4 p.m. (PST).
Organized and moderated by sociologist Dr. Chauntelle Tibbals, the event will feature Siri Dahl, Ana Foxxx, Casey Kisses, Siren SaintSin, Domino Presley, Kristel Penn, attorney Corey D. Silverstein and Free Speech Coalition's Mike Stabile.
“Historically, the wider social world has always had an uneven relationship with the adult industry community and sex media, one that vacillates between two broad perspectives: anti-pornography activism and pro-pornography fascination,” Tibbals said.
“Our wider social world is currently in a period of anti-porn sentiment, one that’s being elevated by noteworthy mainstream media outlets alongside banking and payment processing entities. All this, while sex work is more visible and more visibly leveraged than ever,” she continued. “We’re going to be discussing various tensions that emerge when society continues to double-down on ‘hating’ something that it clearly loves and I’m so excited that we're having this discussion with our community.”
Sssh.com owner and director Angie Rowntree noted her intention with livestreamed Mindbrowse events is to "provide a platform for a diverse array of perspectives from our community to deep-dive relevant topics and to make that discussion as accessible as possible via technology."
“The idea of enhancing accessibility via technology has finally become normalized, and we will continue to press that message alongside nuanced discussion of issues that impact our entire community,” Rowntree continued. “We are so excited for this event."
A recording will be available after the event on Mindbrowse.com and XBIZ.tv.
