“S*x work is always the canary in the coal mine for free speech and privacy, and age-check requirements aren’t stopping with online p**n,” writes ’s Elizabeth Nolan Brown in a recent issue of ’s S*x & Tech newsletter.
Thanks to the Online Safety Act of 2023, platforms with U.K. users are now required to block minors from being able to see not just p**n but “self-harm, su***de and eating disorder content.” This far-reaching law imposes rules on an array of digital services, including social media platforms, search engines, video-sharing platforms, direct messaging tools, dating apps, message boards, and more.
If you’re in the U.S. and thinking, “What does this have to do with me?” Well, consider the U.K. a glimpse into our inevitable surveillance-mad future.
At least 20 states have already passed rules requiring age verification for adult content. And I think we can expect most, if not all, states to follow suit now that the Supreme Court has given it the OK.

Can the government make more babies?
Fertility rates in the U.S. and around the world are plummeting. Trump says he wants a “baby boom” and to be “the fertilization president.” But can the government really boost birth rates? And should it?
Feminists for Liberty was proud to kick off Freedom Fest 2025 in sunny Palm Springs, California with this panel discussion on how pronatalist policies in other countries have fared (not well!), what the Trump administration is considering, and whether the push to increase fertility rates will be good or bad for women.
Feminist for Liberty’s Kat Murti, Elizabeth Nolan Brown, and Avens O’Brien also discussed libertarian policy tweaks that could be good for families from daycare access to car seat regulations to, you guessed it, zoning law.
The bottom line? Women need more choice and support for the family sizes that suit them best—one size does not fit all!

In a society where it's taken for granted that women change their surnames, there's a structural issue that prevents people from recognizing the feelings of those who don't want to.

Feminists for Liberty is a grassroots group dedicated to promoting libertarian feminist ideas and voices. It was founded in 2016, incorporated in the District of Columbia in 2018, and recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in 2019.
Feminists for Liberty (F4L) is leading a new wave of an old idea—that people should be treated equally under the law, regardless of their gender or s*x.
If feminism is “the radical notion that women are people,” libertarian feminism is the even more radical notion that women (and men) are individuals and should be treated as such.
Feminists for Liberty is anti-s*xism and anti-statism, pro-markets and pro-choice—in everything. We are classically liberal, anti-carceral, and s*x positive. We share many of the concerns of mainstream feminists, but believe the best means of creating change in society isn’t based on coercion, criminalization, censorship, or bigger government.
Guided by a long tradition of individualist or libertarian feminism, Feminists for Liberty provides a counter-narrative to prevailing ideas about what feminism is and means, raising awareness about our space within the diversity of feminist thought.
We’re gathering allies and independent thinkers—no matter your labels—to challenge conventional wisdom about feminism and libertarianism.
A wave starts with just a little wind blowing along the water’s surface, creating a small disturbance that steadily builds into something bigger.
Let’s create a disturbance.
Feminists for Liberty Mission
To inject a libertarian feminist perspective into contemporary political conversations and media.
To promote policies that advance gender equality while respecting individual rights, free markets, and civil liberties.
To oppose government-sanctioned s*xism in all its forms and advocate for systems in which s*x and gender are irrelevant to how one is treated under the law.
To amplify the voices of freedom-minded feminists.
To drive more diverse and open liberty-movement discourse on issues surrounding s*x, gender, s*xuality, reproductive decisions, family issues, and equal rights.
To highlight economic liberty’s crucial role in women’s advancement and push back on the notion that free markets are bad for feminism.
To be fearless, intellectually honest, and unite more than we divide.
To promote liberty and gender justice for all.
Feminists for Liberty Statement of Values
We believe true feminism and libertarianism are highly compatible, as both are centered on the inherent worth and power of the individual.
We believe that historically and currently, the state has been one of the largest perpetrators of s*x discrimination, gendered oppression, and s*xual violence.
We believe the law shouldn’t discriminate based on s*x, gender, s*xual orientation, or relationship status.
We believe in promoting voluntary solutions to gender inequity, and working towards the social, cultural, and economic conditions in which these solutions can flourish.
We believe that free speech, an open internet, religious freedom, s*xual privacy, self-defense, and robust due process rights are essential to an equal and just society.
We believe collectivism is bad policy—and that there’s really nothing more collectivist than treating someone as simply a representative of their s*x or gender.
