A list of culture war predictions for 2024, curious what you guys think/where I might be wrong. Feel free to rip to shreds.
So wait, 2023 is a list of some fancy topics hardly anyone knows but all topics of 2024 are related to sex and feminism?

Granted, my categories are quite abstract. But my point is that for 2024 you are mainly expecting to write about sex and feminism/gender topics, even though 2023 wasn't abstinent of any such culture wars, nor the years before it.

Seems odd to categorise criticisms of pornography and 'sex positivity' as being conservative and anti-woke.

This is much more a feminist critique than anything else, as the main arguments against both of these is how it harms women as a sex class.

See, for example, Dworkin on how pornography dehumanizes women and how the pornography industry is implicated in violence against women.
