War/rape/porn

 

Abstract

This piece is an experiment in a Gaga feminist reaction to the undertone of sex and sexuality in militarism in contemporary global politics. It looks at the sexualization of war/rape/porn, arguing that revealing and considering the grotesque is the only path to denormalize it.
