At the 2014 Summit for the Coalition to End Sexual Exploitation (CESE), Dr. Gail Dines gave this keynote address. She discussed how pop culture industries, from Internet pornography to MTV, bombard society with sexualized images of ideal women and men, and convey powerful messages that help shape our sexuality while promoting inequality and a rape culture.
Dr. Dines is Co-founder and President of Stop Porn Culture and is a professor of sociology and women’s studies at Wheelock College.
