Long abstractThere is nothing inherently empowering about making porn or showing the naked female (or any gendered) body on stage. The empowering part I believe, is primarily based in our freedom to explore what we are actually interested in, asking ourselves about life, and what we love to do. This could include, but is not limited to, discovering that we are exhibitionists or artists and/or that we enjoy exploring our sexuality with lots of different kinds of people. The freedom to explore these things – without feeling pressure from speculations about our gender or sexual orientation and without feeling shame about what we are publicly “allowed” to do or express out loud as those genders and orientations – deflates the imagined magnitude of what it is to show our bodies’ sexuality in public.
