Summary/Abstract: The book is a sociological analysis of the anti-pornographic feminist discourse. It focuses both on the concept of gender and sexuality and on the understanding of performativity in the context of symbolic power of speech. The author critically analyses the concept of gender and its connection to sexuality as raised (both explicitly and implicitly) by anti-pornographic feminism. She also deals with the anti-pornographic discourse in contemporary Czech pornography-related works of sexology and criminology. The last part of the book critically analyses pornography as a performative expression, assessing the benefits and limitations of this approach.
