Well, I don't think we are anywhere near the point where we are defining figureheads and representatives. Altho I tend to agree with the points you make, especially the idea that having women speaking for porn publishing is particularly effective.
I like the idea of Tristan Taormino as a representative - she's an excellent writer and speaker.
Are you referring to what I was saying about 'who hosts the position statement'? I think it would be a good idea to have a woman hosting it, and serving as the contact point for it.
Altho, I think there's a real possibility that it could become a hard job, and that whoever does it might find themselves on the sharp end of "fifteen minutes of fame".

On a related note, I thought Tom Hymes statement about censorship and extreme materials was very interesting. It started me thinking - I don't know if there is a clear and concise "position statement" that I've seen for the Free Speech Coalition.
But I like the idea of a fierce constitutional position, especially nowadays when the constitution seems to be the neocons favorite kicking boy, just another rag that obstructs their "war on terror" or "war on drugs" or "war on women" or "war on porn" or whatever the "war du jour" happens to be.
