American Theocons and Muslims Agree: End Hotel Porn!

[Fragony]

PPV Porn is an "event" where you invite the guys and the family over, just like UFC or the Super Bowl.

When looking for something more personal with the lady, shopping for the right movie to watch during your date, is not unlike the two of you shopping for a new bed together, or browsing the produce section for the perfect eggplant. Once you read the descriptions and find the right pornographic movie, it is the perfect compliment for a sexy hotel stay while enjoying Carls Jr takeout and sipping ice cold Schlitz.

These are things mountain men like Vuk will never understand

There are also some things you don't understand, porn is a harsh world, not everybody is in it for the fun

Cry me a river. And here I thought it was all pecan pie and puppy dogs. People are selling their bodies. Some enjoy it, some don't. Read the fine print on your contracts, just like in the real world.

If they want to regulate the "workforce" then they should. But thinking women will stop selling their bodies to old men anytime soon is retarded. Google yourself Backpage + any major US city and check the escorts section. There are hundreds of ads PER DAY. In fact, if they legalized prostitution in the puritanical country, we might see the porn industry simmer down and perhaps become a legitimate form of work.

Sure all that, but it's not harmless fun. I like harmless.

Your iPad was made by enslaved hobbits in a post-industrial wasteland Shire. Deal with it.

Porn, like any industry, has its dregs and losers. But I'd be willing to bet you see more real work done to create real products in the San Fernando Valley than I did in my eight years on Wall Street.

If you take that statement and apply it on the porn-industry, does it feel right to you

[Kralizec]

Of course not. Why would Lemur be interested in porn made with hobbits?

Uhh ... no reason .. that would be absurd ...

Your iPad was made by people who quite likely chose that line of work as it pays rather better and comes with benefits and such than you could dream of for most white collar work you could ever hope to get fresh out of university with a degree. Foxconn may not be panda hugging hipsters who only require you to grow some bamboo whilst meditating on your balance with nature or some such but they are not comparable to the porn industry either. Rather more comparable to moaning about those poor overworked Wall Street types who take to various unhealthy substances to relieve stress and have to suffer New York, or some such. Hence why we don't (should not) look to China for moral guidance or inspiration on how to deal with the workforce.

Deal with it.

Now that I would agree with if it weren't for the fact that we're quite obviously not talking about the "Vanilla" style of porn.

Watched that clip, the point is not that people don't chose to go into the line of work, or don't understand it's not going to be "easy" or even remotely enjoyable. Regardless of whatever else you may think of the Theocon undertones of that clip Fragony posted, the point is that often enough the not so vanilla stuff comes with something (especially attitude) that in all other lines of work would be classified as "abuse".

It's pretty much recognised in all lines of work that if you subject people to stress, dangerous and potentially fatal conditions that employees and employer have a basic responsibility to treat each other with concern for safety, health and well being. Issue is that in porn (and prostitution for that matter) there are plenty of outfits that fail to observe that basic principle, so calling for regulation is not wrong per se.

Now you could argue that uhm, yeah, that's what she signed up for so she should deal with it. The counter point to this is that abuse remains, well, abuse and as far as I am aware (or concerned) that remains "wrong". We have all sorts of protection clauses in most line of work to prevent employers from shafting employees with small print, and outright ban abuse -- I don't see why the same shouldn't be enforced in porn.
