The London Porn Festival is known to celebrate queer sexuality and holds annual festivals with pornographic screenings. In 2019, feminist activist groups protested against the festival claiming it to be harmful and dangerous. Given this event, this paper claims that the London Porn Festival Protest in 2019 is evidence that the sex wars between feminists are ongoing.
To prove this thesis right, the paper is structured like the following. The first chapter deals with the concept of culture wars and the Feminist Porn Wars of the 1980s as a theoretical framework for the analysis. Here, the chapter defines the two opposing views of feminists on pornography. The analysis contains an elaborate examination in how far the Feminist Wars are ongoing with the example of the London Porn Film Festival protests. Finally, the paper's findings will be summarized and an outlook on further research will be given.
