But the boys lives are in ruins!!! They had such promising futures!

I didn't say that.

Why were the monkeys having this problem? It makes me sad. It it an inherent issue with the species? I'm glad you were there to help them!

I used to feel this way until I actually met people from the industry and heard their stories. I just don't see how "consenting" to violent, painful acts for the pleasure of others is healthy. The idea that we can, and should, submit to simulated, or real, violence, is a dangerous lie.

Because i have never heard of a single survivor of the industry, ever, who walked away from it without serious psychological issues and ptsd, not to mention the physical trauma.

I would also want to let you know that many of these women end up with incontinence, tearing, and prolapses from the long sessions they do usually with massive amounts of lidocaine and poppers to numb the pain.

The pain is actually one of the marketing points. The banner ads often feature women literally crying. The violence against women in pornography has always been subtle but now it's overt. There is no denying it.

Most women in porn are not "wanting" to do it. I would estimate that women who do it purely for that reason are less than 1% of the industry. Some truly go into it thinking it is what they want until realize the industry is anti-women, run by men, and dangerous.

I think the point is that it is totally becoming mainstream and not just a fetish for a small minority.

THANK YOU. There is a huge disconnect between the goals of feminism and the way it is being re-written, especially with the younger generation. There is nothing empowering about doing porn. I do not see how anyone can argue that it is sex positive. And I agree, I think that the newest wave of feminism may actually…

Maybe 1-2% of the population looks good in shorts. You are really not alone here. They're just not flattering on most people.

WHY DON'T PEOPLE GET THIS??? WHY?

Here is info on this topic, specifically. This website is an amazing resource on porn in general. http://yourbrainonporn.com/porn-escalatio…

YES.. will find the study and send to you. Can't remember where I read/saw it. Might have been part of the TED talk on porn.

No, and this is an interesting point. There are studies that show that viewing violent images and child pornography actually stimulates the parts of the brain that crave those images, requiring the viewer to escalate viewing to maintain the "high." So this means creating a demand for more images, and potentially…

WTF is amazon smile?

Unless, of course, she cheats on you.

Wrong. This just encourages people to do that same shit, but under the table, just as they are doing now. We're talking about illegal immigrants and children begin exploited. There's not way to "legalize" that. The market demand is for young girls (children, basically). There is legal prostitution in the US. ITs'…

Comment was meant for waestofpaint.

And forget about the fact that we are talking about CHILDREN here, who are not really in a position to consent to any sort of "business" transaction, let alone leaving their home for a foreign land where they don't even speak the language. Give it a break. Seriously.
