"FEMINISM MOMENT: I refused to have sex with my Grindr date because I noticed he had a wife (wedding photos framed on his bedroom wall lol). My jorts were already off but I pulled them up with quickness. This one's for you Andrea Dworkin."
Gay sex must be so much more thrilling when you have a wife. · u/gayWigger · ↑821 · 2025-05-14
"You can also make a dworkin-esque analysis of porn saying that it sells a fantasy that fucking a woman as a complete possession of her. Obviously the video ends with a cumshot suggesting she has been totally overcome and transformed as a result of being /fucked/"
"Body count discourse. Guys don't wash their asses. Incels. Loneliness epidemic. Ghosting. Andrea Dworkin. Hinge. "The bar is in hell for men". Weaponized incompetence. Inject it into my veins."

"I don't agree with all the 2nd wave sex negative radfem stuff, but I don't think getting insulted and degraded is some empowering experience, I just think Dworkin was wrong in that it's not most men imposing violence on women and sexualizing their subordination, it's women selecting for it, then bla"

"Right-wing women have surveyed the world: they find it a dangerous place. They see that work subjects them to more danger from more men; it increases the risk of sexual exploitation. [...] They see that traditional marriage means selling to one man, not hundreds: the better deal."

"I wonder if Dworkin would come up with some cope that only reason shes this way is because shes trying to succeed in a world measured by masculine metrics. My boss would tell her to fuck off and say shes doing it for love of the game"
Dworkin should have met by boss · u/KittyOnTheRocks · ↑231 · 2025-10-03
"The only fucking Christmas gift I received this year was a fuck machine from my boyfriend. I don't even use toys to masterbate. In my Dworkinmaxxing era."

"I don't want to sound like Andrea Dworkin, but when you start to think about the gender dynamics as well, it just makes it even more creepy."
Louis C.K is a bit of a creep. · u/Lewisiamwhoyouthin · ↑183 · 2023-12-29
"I want to bring us back to basics. Prostitution: what is it? It is the use of a woman's body for sex by a man, he pays money, he does what he wants. The minute you move away from what it really is, you move away from prostitution into the world of ideas... Prostitution is not an idea. It is the mout"
Prostitution and Male Supremacy - Andrea Dworkin · u/bo0oo66 · ↑164 · 2024-02-29
"It reminds me of Dworkin complaining about Anais Nin in 'Pornography'- I always felt that Dworkin was lying to herself that it was about 'morality' and not the fact that Nin could be honest about her own desires in a way Dworkin never could. Dworkin's writing often read more as her perverted fantasi"
"Not saying she should (or can) overcome all odds and become a doctor… but I hope she can find success in a non-sexed industry. Want to mail her some Dworkin when the time is right."

"Paglia has the quote about Dworkin as The Girl Who's Always Getting Sick, something like that, this was The Guy Who's Always Being Turned Down."
"Right-wing women have surveyed the world: they find it a dangerous place. They see that work subjects them to more danger from more men; it increases the risk of sexual exploitation... To right wing men, we are private property. To left wing men, we are public property. Andrea Dworkin, Right-Wing Wo"

"like a full on Dworkin-ish 'cel. was signing up for a Substack subscription and the site recommended a bunch of accounts to follow, she was in there. out of pure curiosity I opened her page and she follows/reposts a ton of lady PUA accounts, intimacy coaches, 'matriarchy' stuff."

"Watching videos of Dworkin and just admiring the pristine internal coherence"
""All around us there are other women, seemingly not hurt, making small talk, acting normal, which means happy, not discontent, certainly not devastated. Girls are still being socialised not to identify with - feel empathy for - other females: she got hurt because she did x, y, z - I didn't, so I did"
"Still, I struggle to turn Dworkin brain off enough to not feel nauseated and neurotic when I'm reminded of the large amount of sexualized gym content that's been grown popular online."
"The idea of unrestricted access to an absolutely available female population, there to be raped, to which one could do anything, has gripped the male imagination, especially on the Left, and has been translated into the euphemistic demand for "free sex, free women." The belief that this urge toward "

"i would like to fund a reality tv show where 10 of the radfemmiest rsp posters have to live in a house with 10 of the most incel posters. and it needs to be one of those weird reality tv houses where there's different themed bedrooms, with at least one dworkin themed room and one andrew tate themed "

"It would just feel kind of emasculating; I don't imagine Hannah Arendt or Virginia Woolf or Andrea Dworkin calling themselves that. Besides, princess of what? Isn't it cringe to call yourself a princess when no one appointed you as such?!"

"Girls are still being socialised not to identify with - feel empathy for - other females: she got hurt because she did x, y, z - I didn't, so I didn't get hurt; she's at fault, I'm not; the punishment fits her crime; blame her, exonerate him."
