Just like it is all the other idiots who respond to advertising but not you.

This post doesn't even make sense, but yes, with education, age, etc come wisdom, ability to negotiate, etc. 18 year olds, male or female, are going to be much easier to manipulate- especially women, who are trained and indoctrinated by culture to be agreeable.

Okay, so go ahead, support legislation that keeps the 18 year olds minors until they're 35. Then they can enter the world of porn without your handwringing, if they should lean that way.

Who mentioned 35? I think legislation to prevent people, of all sexes, from being in porn until they're say- old enough to buy a drink at a bar- would be a very wise idea. men would be really angry about it though.

Go for it. Knock yourself out. Good luck.

Thanks for your support.

You missed my sarcasm. And no, you don't have my support. Sorry.

Don't assume we're all men. I am a woman and I find your persistence in labeling women victims to be annoying and idiotic.

Oh I got it. I was just ignoring it, as I ignore all idiotic passive aggression.

I don't care if you're a woman. I find you misogynistic and juvenile. So we're even.

Some of us women don't need your patronizing bullsh*t. Even porn stars. They probably wouldn't take kindly to your prudish, sanctimonious BS.

And some of us women find handmaidens like you (if you really are a woman, which I doubt) to be predictable and pathetic. And we don't take kindly to you throwing other women under the bus in your quest for male approval

Nevertheless, as PP stated, 21 instead of 18 to make life-changing decisions seems reasonable to me.

The article is weak? What are you talking about? The article is sickening

It's also bizarre. The article is taking porn, fantasy videos, as real. As if the actors aren't acting.

They aren't "acting" because it's real sex. This is not a Merchant Ivory film. Furthermore the article addresses the level of cruelty and hatred that is being depicted and why on earth anyone would be turned on by that

It's a good thing these women are portraying abuse and torture, not being abused and tortured. And yes, the distinction is real and important.

The sex is real, but that doesn't mean the scenarios depicted are. It ain't rocket science.

Actually they ARE being abused and tortured. These are real women, in real situations, with real stuff being done to their body.

And yes, the damage done to them is very real and very important.

Right... so the painful sex act depicted in the article was real, glad we agree.

People like you give feminists a bad name. Anytime someone disagrees with you, you label them a misogynist or a woman trying to impress men. I see, if a woman disagrees with you, then she's not just thinking for herself, she must be trying to impress men. How about we disagree with you because you are wrong, and an idiot to boot? F*ck off!

Er, yeah. They're excellent actors, apparently, because you and the article writer think it's all real.

And so i repeat my metaphor... if I offer a homeless person $100 to knock his teeth out, and he agrees, is that alright? Is it morally acceptable to do so? Is it morally acceptable for a person to watch and get off to footage of me doing that?

Just because some consents to something does not make it morally acceptable or take away the harm done.

You are a disgusting pig who doesn't want to acknowledge the reality of women's abuse. You want to sweep it under the rug. Too bad. It's real, and we're not going to hide it anymore.

DP

And you are too obtuse to understand that these are actors, acting?

Do you understand that murders in movies aren't really murdering people? It's a movie. It's fake.

After the porno scene is shot, they clean up, get dressed, help the crew pack up the lights and gear, and then they all probably go to Chipotle or get drinks.

You didn't read the article, did you?

Please, for the love of God, READ ARTICLES before commenting. My Lord. How embarrassing to weigh in so authoritatively and you're just 1000% incorrect.

I did, and if the author really believes those women aren't professional porn actresses who know EXACTLY what they're doing, then she's operating a few bricks short of a full load.

You think she's acting when she cries out in pain? Wow. You must not have read very much about the porn industry. Time for you to educate yourself before spouting off, sparky.

I know she's an actress. Acting. Stop implying she was raped or that her participation in acting wasn't done without her clear, informed consent.

You think the sex is faked? These are not ACTRESSES, they are not a part of SAG, they did not go to the Actor's Studio, they are basically young 18 year olds who've never acted in anything in their life who are desperate for money. NOT acting. REAL pain, real distress, as so many porn actresses have spoken out about. Educate yourself.

They are over 18 and participating willingly. End of story.

No, it's not the end of story, not when deception and coercion and large amounts of money to desperate people is involved.

And that's exclusive to the sex trade?

I'm glad we agree that the painful sex was real. Something other porn stars have confirmed for us

No, but it's rampant to the sex trade and something that urgently needs to be addressed.

Your analogy isn't as clever as you seem to think. There are issues in film about where the line is. There are similar issues in extreme porn videos, but you're not really talking about that. The OP's article isn't about that issue or about breaking teeth. Start a new thread if you want to talk about the line between consent and abuse in porn and art.

The OP's article is about sex which is painful and almost certainly involves bodily damage, as do many porn films. Not to mention emotional damage and damage to one's livelihood and ability to make money.

That's what this entire thread is about, dude.
