It's time to take your meds, OP. You're talking to "Brian" again. |
Speaking in the third person again? Oh Brian. It's okay. |
Obviously the person who agreed to be beaten up or starred in a sex video felt it was okay just like football players know that there is a high chance they will be hurt or have brain damage the money they rake in outweighs whatever could happen. Pornstars know the risks and know they could catch std but the money keeps them coming back. They feel its OKAY and in a sense many of these people are morally depraved. |
Except when you sign up to have sex with someone you don't also sign up to be punched or hit or violently abused. |
I don't, but other women do. In the article about 10 women who had left the job, they all said they knew what they were getting into. They knew the reputation of the costar, etc. |
No, they didn't. In fact one specifically said that when she showed up there was a man specifically on her no list. Another talked about agreeing to one act and then it being completely different. Please stop lying when the link is right there |
Is there ANY porn you're ok with?
Serious question, not in jest. Is there? |
Not really. If we entered some utopia where the porn industry was not insanely coercive and did not prey on the most vulnerable and broke women. If women were not routinely mocked and denigrated for having appeared in films. If the women in the movies got access to the profits. If there was no violence and purposeful degradation. Then sure. But unfortunately there's about a snowball's chance in hell of those things coming together. |
What about porn directed and produced by women? |
Unfortunately most of the porn directed by women has a lot of internal misogyny and still contains a lot of the factors I listed above. |
And to add- I would dearly love to be able to point people to harmless pornography. It would be great if that existed, and I know no one wants to hear the mean one telling them they can't watch porn.
But it's all bad. If you need to jerk off- read erotica. There's plenty of erotica you can read. Or engage in- you know- real, actual sex. But the porn consumption has simply got to stop. I know for some people that's difficult, but there's a lot at stake, specifically the lives and well being of the most vulnerable young women (and young men in the cases of gay porn) |
Erotica is completely misongonistic and perpetuates harmful gender-normed roles and cultural acceptance. Like porn, it should be banned, tbh. |
It sounds like the real problem is the sed drive. Or people. We should ban sex and fantasy about sex. And people. |
It's vulnerable young boys too, who are at risk of exploitation by the predators common to the gay porn industry. Don't forget about them or leave them out of the conversation. |
I am sure a lot of those girls have learning disabilities, and if they had been loved and cared for and instructed properly throughout their lives, they would have gone down quite different paths than that leading to the casting couch. As much as many of you object to mere high school teachers commenting on undiagnosed (by a "professional") special needs, I am sure I saw flashes of learning disability and psychological/emotional issues in some of the girls' aspects and speech (yeah, I spent some time watching some of these videos after reading about the issue). Every day, I see glimmers of the same issues in the aspects and speech of other teen girls who are loved, cared for, and will NOT end up on the "casting couch" because their home/family/life circumstances just happen to be different than those of the girls who end up on the casting couch. I'm kind of playing with the idea of going through a lot of those casting couch videos with the intention of finding and taking clips of what I see as evidence of learning disability, then putting it all together with written explanation and editorial. |
