Anti-Porn Conservatives Turn Porn Performer’s University Speech Into a Scandal

condomsLongtime porn performer and sex educator Nina Hartley was recently invited to speak at University of Wisconsin-La Crosse. The talk was titled “Fantasy Vs. Reality: A critical view of adult media.” In her 90-minute lecture she “touched on everything from female empowerment, to the necessity of consent, to the importance of differentiating porn from reality,” according to the La Crosse Tribune.

But it seems not everyone was a fan of her speech—in particular, anti-porn crusaders who contacted conservative media outlets to turn the lecture into a tawdry sex scandal. Before long word spread that the chancellor of the university had given the porn star $5,000 for a “secret” sex talk. The outcry got so heated that the chancellor penned an op-ed to explain his decision to fund the talk, before agreeing to “personally compensate the university for Hartley’s $5,000 appearance fee.”
