There's a lot of healthy porn out there that appeals to the light side. There's also a lot of porn that appeals to the dark side. Women aren't humans to share experiences with but objects to be fucked into submission, conquered and degraded so the audience can vicariously feel like men because they never get to in their own lives. It's fucked up.
Porn is about as deregulated as finance and just as reputable. We likely won't see any reforms.
The thing I'm curious about is why she stays in. She doesn't suggest enough good to make up for the bad. And I would find it very difficult to enjoy her videos thinking of her curled up in real pain after. But I also feel the same way about professional sports. Athletes are suiciding to escape the pain. I think the idea of saying they know what they're in for and take the money to be a disgustingly republican point of view, pretending like the fiction of informed consent makes up for what happens and absolves all responsibility and blame.
There's a pretty sick Christian feel of judgment here. Nothing gets dicks harder than thumping a bible disapprovingly at someone.
The critics don't seem to be looking at her as a human, just a fetish object of shame and filth to be gleefully condemned. There is no sympathy, no compassion, just the pornographic gratification in the viewing of spectacle.
