In my line of work, I get constantly propositioned not only for sex acts but also for extreme sex acts. With my particularly over-analytical state of mind, this can either be pretty hilarious or highly disturbing. In the back of my mind, I'm silently wondering if these fantasies are borne out of genuine desire or if they're conditionings projected

This was insightful and wonderfully composed - your voice quite often amazes me

Believe me, my friends and I have gatherings where we sit around and download the most ludicruous porn we can possibly find - whether grotesque or just hilarious. I've also spent a considerable amount of money on videos in the past, which just depresses me that I'd indulge in somebody else's misery. But I pretty much theorize that I've used it for entertainment purposes despite my vehement stance against it because most humor is rooted in tragedy.

I don't really require visual stimulation through videos, albeit it's a plus.. usually it will get me going but won't finish me off. I find better orgasms take place in the mind. Thanks for the comments, it's an unconventional perspective so it's pleasing to see someone who "gets" what I'm shooting for.

OMG, my friends and I also laugh at bad porn! And knit.

wow well now. i should start with the usual "oh so sorry that happened, this is a great list, jen you rock at writing."

but instead i am going a bit different. what happened with that guy realy was an eventuality, one that should not exist but does exist. you may want to consider a change of employers, some place where they actualy look out for the girls. i've met people who's idea of fun is to kill strippers and get away with it, not as uncommon as one would hope.

moving on, this list of yours and the very ideas behind it are rather good in ideal but lacking in scope. alot more could be said of gay porn (which i have done) than is usualy said of straight porn. if you could add a bit to your theories with a bit more of less brutalized males as well, that would just about perfect it for me. actualy the part that struck me the most was #8, its just as demeaning for the actors. but yes perhaps you could perfect the list and start it as a petition perhaps some of the major companies will change their policies, maybe, but most likely not

I actually made a conscious effort to not include gay porn because I was targeting the heterosexual aspect of the industry that is so predominantly effecting the majority. I did mention lesbianism but if you notice it was umbrellaed under phallocentricity. I have next to no experiance watching gay porn on account of finding the male body visually unappealing. Ergo it's difficult for me to argue this particular field with someone who's actually been actively involved in the industry. However I do at least agree with your points that gay males are objectified horrendously as well, which is on account of homophobia the same way women are objectified due to sexism. If you're not "masculine" enough (e.g homosexual) you're reduced to sub-human status along with your fag hags. I will re-emphasize to you that I weighed the option of including homosexual exploitation but figured it would detract further from my point if I articulated and assumed incorrectly. I'll research it now that you've brought it to my attention

Um... Ms. Jennifer.

Why are you being ridiculous? I'm going to call you tomorrow, pick up. We haven't spoke in quite some time, and this bothers me. It will be strictly business. I'm a bit concerned at your current state of affairs so...

Stop being an asshole and avoiding me :). I know you're busy, but so am I and I make time to call you/IM you.

Ciao bella.

good writing skills.

We've made a new friend each :P

[demonista]

hello, hello :) thanks for friending me. if you don't mind my asking, why did you? i added you back because i've read this fucking awesome post and others of yours, and although sometimes i don't get your sarcastic/caustic humour, you're definitely 1) a great writer 2) in possession of good politics and 3) cool. I've had trouble with trolls, but can see that I'll not have to worry about that with you :D

Re: We've made a new friend each :P

[cruelbitch]

I found you in some commmunity, I don't exactly keep track though and you're a member of so many that it's hard to pinpoint. I just remember heavily aligning with your philosophies and enjoying your articles. It's someone that I wanted to stick around instead of me continously having to search for them, I wanted you readily accessible.

Why did you get banned from those mentioned in your profile?

Re: We've made a new friend each :P

[demonista]

Hmmm...I'm wondering too. I was (until recently) active in a lot of comms, and have kinda backed down because of the crap i've gotten from it

Re: We've made a new friend each :P

I read all of that, it's pretty disconcerting how the backwards momentum of complicated language constraints muddies up the argument and removes the central focus out of question. I understand *why* people, for example, use words like "hir", but I think it's not progressive to assume that that's the first step we need to make changes. Yes, language is integral to changing (or diluting) our inner perspectives, but the so-called movement hasn't progressed to the point where the average person would even begin to comprehend it. They would just think "what a fucking retard" and dismiss the rest of the argument

Re: Out of interest

[cruelbitch]

See above comment to demonista, I added you both for the same reason around the same time.
