The People's Porn is the first history of American handmade and
homemade pornography, which offers the back story to the explosion
of amateur pornography on the Internet. In doing so, it is a
much-needed counterweight to the ahistorical and ideological
arguments that dominate most discussions about pornography. Critics
focus on mass-produced materials and make claims about pornography
as plasticized or commodified. In contrast, this book looks at what
people made rather than what they bought, revealing how people
thought about sexuality for themselves. Whalers and craftsmen,
prisoners and activists, African Americans and feminists, all made
their own pornography. The People's Porn challenges preconceptions
as it tells a new and fascinating story about American sexual
history.
