The postmodern reason why radical feminists hate porn (and see porn actresses as oppressed by men)...

"Philosophically, Postmodernists (inc. radical feminists) see human minds constructed by language, so they'll say; if we are born into a social world, those pornographic images shape our minds, and teach men to think a certain way and women a certain way, so we don't have true autonomy or agency to make our own decisions, about which of these sexuality messages we're going to accept or reject - instead we are passively created by these pornographic messages, which uniformly teach men to be exploitative, rapists and dominators of women, and they teach women to be passive and just to take it. So as a matter of policy, we have to just get rid of that narrative entirely and that requires a complete censorship of porn".

What about women who really want to become porn actresses?

Postmodernists would respond - "Those women you think who were voluntarily becoming porn actresses, they have been earlier constructed by society through methods that they're not even aware of to accept a certain role, so they have a false consciousness. So even if you have a woman who says "I like sex of a certain sort and I like being filmed, and I like making a living doing this". Postmodernists would say; "Well, you don't really know who you are, you've been constructed into that role, so you are still a victim."
