Comment

The chapter titled "Our Secret Garden" includes descriptions of romances containing rape (by heroines of heroes as well as vice versa) because Lafraomboise is using them as part of an argument against anti-porn feminists:

no one remotely familiar with the sort of contemporary women's romance fiction I've described above can possibly deny that plenty of women are interested in sexual fantasy material that involves overt or implied bondage. Despite what anti-porn feminists would like to believe, many women are also turned on by scenarios in which females are kidnapped and threatened with rape. (255)
