“Young is keenly aware of the ideological tightrope she walks as a sub, participating in a world of gender-role extremes; as a pornstar, participating in a moneyed world of glamor and objectification; and finally, as a feminist, working in discrete communities of like-minded allies to expand the sexual agency of the disenfranchised. Her unbridled subjective nudity here should not be diminished as simply “brave.” Daddy is a take-no-prisoners assault on fantasy, both the patriarchal fantasy of the nuclear family and any ideologically prescriptive fantasy, including the feminist variety, of what female subjectivity “should be.” – Mr Thursday on Daddy
