BE WARNED! LONG THREAD!
Atisz, I read your posts in the Bonny Singer thread and here. Point by point reply.
If you believe that women are not sexually expolited in the mainstream media then you are just being willfully ignorant. Read what Terry Richardson was doing with mainstream models. Marilyn Monroe being expolited is also well documented, including her multiple abortions.
I have read how Pierre gets new models. So what he basically does is bait-and-switch. If that is what is really happening, then it is unethical but not illegal. although I know you are worried about the unethical part.
Did you know mainstream modelling agenices also scout public locations for new models. I read a story in New York Times about how Brazilian scouts stand outside high schools and approach girls , 15-16 years old for mainstream modeling. The story showed such a 15 year old girl from a small town. The scout during the interview was touching her hair in a creepy way. He convinced her parents that she could become the next big model. We know not everyone does. So she went away alone to the city. Came back 3 months later crying about missing home. Who knows what happens in these situations. Btw, her parents home was simple but not poor.
There is a mainstream French model who was nude on a catwalk when she was 17 years old, today she is around 23-24. Completely nude except for a hat. Did the designer have to keep her nude in front of hundreds of people to show the hat? Tell me how is that not sexual expolitation of a minor and child porn.
I know there are women who regret doing porn. Olivia Laroche on this very forum has said that. She did not start with Pierre, but is angry at the whole industry. She is unable to break into mainstream modeling because of her past. I feel for her. But coming to the main point:
All this is nothing compared to the sex slavery and sexual abuse happening all over the world. read up the statistics on this subject. It happens everywhere and involves the active participation of a lot of men. We porn fans are harmless compared to the evil that these men carry out. And I mean the customers too.
Read what American businessman Jeffery Epstein was doing. Having underage girls living in his harem and passing them around to important and powerful people to win favors. There is even a photo of Prince Andrew with a 16 year old girl (non-nude). This girl is now 28 and spilled the beans. The man even tried to recurit mainstream actress Nadia Bjorlin when she was 13 years old. But her mother was able to save her.
About the ex-pornstar who was harassed by the villagers. Yes, they were mean to her and she did not deserve it. Maybe its because you saw it firsthand so you are affected about this issue more. But in the bigger picture, this is trivial stuff (again, not being insensitive here) to the real sexual abuse going on.
What if my girlfriend was a pornstar. If it was her past, I would not care, although I would make sure she did not have any STDs. If she did it behind my back without telling me, I would be disappointed that she did not tell me about it and did not trust me. So I would probably break up with her. Probably because you never know what decisions life forces you to make. But I would not hit her.
Btw, what is your definition of porn? Is nude modeling like Playboy, Met-art or femjoy porn to you? Playboy was something that girls from "good families" did not do 50 years ago, but a lot of middle class girls today do it and their parents don't disown them (although they may not be very happy about the choice). Playboy has become mainstream. People and society changes.
