This paper bases its analysis on the Bernard Conference known as the beginning of the famous feminists’ sex war in 1980s. Surrounding the themes on pornography, lesbian TP roles and S/M issue, the debates under the “pleasure and danger” theoretical framework divided US feminists into two strands: sex radical feminists and anti-porn feminists who are also known as dominance feminism. The significance and influence of sex war has been lasted for more than 30 years, and dominance feminists are still active in sexual politics on issues such as sexual harassment within and beyond US context. The tracing back to 80s sex war and following feminists’ debates on sex issues in US is expected to give insights to better understand what are happening in current mainland China. Thinking sex in Chinese contexts and proposing efforts toward alternative sexuality discourses and statements rooted in local historical, cultural and social worlds are crucial yet challenging.
