[UK] Porn stars prepare for stand-off with feminists over Stop Porn Culture
The porn industry is preparing for a stand-off with anti-pornography feminists in London this weekend, over a conference they argue is aimed at ?censoring sexual expression in the UK?.
Stop Porn Culture (SPC) will be holding a conference organised by Gail Dines, a sociologist and anti-porn campaigner and the Guardian columnist Julie Bindel, which they describe as a ?progressive, feminist collaboration against the sex industry".
US-based Dines said the aim of the conference was not to ban porn, conceding that this would be impossible, but to ?challenge the porn industry and the harmful culture it perpetuates.?
But news of the event has been met with furious responses from adult performers, who have organised the ?Don?t Censor Me? rally, led by Jerry Barnett, porn distributor and head of the pro-porn Sex and Censorship group.
