Some Pornstars Deserve Compassion Too

    Some are really addicted to sexual stimulation. Many grew up masturbating and watching P. Some just fell into the life of being an addict on camera. They may not be the most wholesome people but they suffer like you and me and deserve to be pitied not hated. Murder the producers.

    Speaking for those performers who still have an ounce of their humanity left.

    Many were also sexually abused when they were young.

    Many addicts blame Pstars for their addiction, but really the only people to blame are the producers and ourselves.

    Pstars are just lost people like us on the other side of the mirror.

    Yes many females were abused, as for males watching porn and masturbating was like self abuse.

    Once I saw this post on Facebook like "if emotional scars can be seen, porn is not beautiful." Just imagining the pain and suffering they're going through it'll make you realize that viewing porn won't be pleasurable anymore but you develop compassion for these people. Just like us they're just victims of situation.

  6. Some of them are in it just for the money, and outside of it they live normal lives. Being in that industry closes a lot of doors for them. They aren't taken seriously, in set they are abused by directors and other male actors, and they can't get a chance to become a teacher for example. Their images and videos are exposed on the internet forever, it's a tough life, many come out depressed and messed up. That's why I think it's a good thing most of them retire early and stick to modeling.

  7. Some? I'd say they all do. Perhaps a controversial opinion here, but I'd say there's nothing inherently bad about porn or being a pornstar itself. The industry is chock-full of abuse and corruption, but it serves a purpose, it's an entertainment industry - it just happens to be one of the industries where a lack of self-control and addiction are very prevalent due to the addictive nature of the medium itself. One could argue that the same is true of the TV industry, the video game industry, the alcohol industry etc but that doesn't make being a video game developer or a bartender any less ethical than any other career choice. It is up to the consumer to be responsible and prevent those things from having a negative effect on their life.

    I think the big enemy in regards to porn addiction is not the porn stars, not the industry (not even its most corrupt depths) but the completely sub-standard sex education we have in school, and the misunderstandings and myths taught to kids about masturbation and porn etc. Our current education with regards to masturbation etc could be compared to telling kids that drinking half a bottle of vodka every day is normal and healthy and everyone should do it - and then blaming the alcohol industry when we suddenly end up with a nation full of alcoholics. The problem is that no-one is taught the addictive nature of porn or masturbation until they've already become addicted and it's usually too late to ever be a responsible user of either anymore. If we were taught from the beginning that these are things to do sparingly and with extreme moderation, then things would look very different.

    That's just my 2 cents anyway, your opinion may be different.

  16. I don't you should be murdering anyone but yes the producers are more to blame. Having said that not all producers are bad. If you watch the documentary Hot Girls Wanted: Turned On they interview a porn producer who doesn't allow women to be abused on her set and because of that her movies aren't being picked up by porn studios. She said she'll probably have to leave the industry but she isn't sure if she can since who want to hire someone who has made porn movies.

    Many of the top porn stars are also producers, because they learned very quickly that that's where the real money is. So we should get away from this porn star vs. producer argument.

    I recently watched the documentary "After Porn Ends 2" (a sequel to the first one, obviously--but I haven't seen the first one). Anyway, it was pretty interesting, and some of the stories were downright heartbreaking. It's not particularly triggering, so I wouldn't feel too afraid of checking it out if you can.

    Fight The New Drug also has some really great testimonials--watch this one for sure. Many of you will recognize this guy.
