ABSTRACT
This chapter aims to engage the enormous complexities of the women's self states, by asking them to reflect on how they made meaning of their lives vis-a-vis the choice to make sex an aspect of work through pornography. L. Z. Sigel wrote "sexuality constitutes a large part of modern people's sense of self. Identities, dreams, and fears can be grounded in sexuality, and pornography allows for the examination of these issues. Pornography is the royal road to the cultural psyche". L. Williams added, "As a cultural form that is as diverse as America, pornography deserves both a serious and extended analysis that reaches beyond polemics and sensationalism". Sexual knowledge and body understanding are cultivated contextually. Karin Flaake points out that mothers and daughters seldom discuss the full range of the daughters' sexual development, rendering it a silent and procedural crisis.
