Each time I watch something with Riley Reid, I can’t stop thinking that she likes her degradation way too much, and she’s not here to advance and advocate women’s rights much.

I may be wrong, she may invest a lot of resources on this, but I can’t keep thinking that!

I have the same feeling with Emily Willis, and some content from Charlotte Sartre too.

Do you have other examples of pornstars that clearly don’t work for men-women equality?

    I was going to write a long point-by-point refutation of your post, but in the end it boiled down to this:

    Dude, blame capitalism for pushing people to sell their bodies for money. If you really care about the degradation of women in porn, devote your time and money to anti-capitalist causes, from universal health care to supporting living minimum wages rather than poverty-level minimum wages, from universal basic income to building guillotines for billionaires. Those things will do far more to help women than trying to blame individual porn stars for the degradation of women and making them somehow responsible for working for women’s equality. At best they are making content that they personally enjoy and at worst they are doing what they need to pay the bills. It’s capitalism that drives young women to get into porn who don’t really want to be there or don’t have the maturity to be there and as a result get taken advantage of.

    And stop gatekeeping what people like in the bedroom. Some people like slow sensual lovemaking. Some people like to be hurt and degraded. Some people like whips, chains, and leather. Some people just want missionary with the lights off. It’s all good, and if you don’t like it don’t watch it.

    Are they not allowed to enjoy degradation if that’s their thing?

    Who are you to deny them their right to enjoy what they want to enjoy?
