(43,303 posts)of the world's money, which buys them a lot of nook market; so, sure, I'd back any legal means that porn industry men have, as workers, to create a negotiation body -- association, talent agency, union, etc. -- that buys them lawyers to negotiate industry base salaries, along with other contract benefits. I doubt that my efforts would be tireless. That level of involvement would be more appropriate for their cohorts, friends and families.
So far, to my knowledge, porn stars and wannabees haven't seemed to find the time to unite to get anything up to snuff. Some attempt in the 90's and a filing with the NLRB, or an association that organizes around STD's, is all I recall. If you know of such groups, you might mention them for the thread or post links so that the standard of action you urge here is one bandwagon that everyone can jump on.
I myself would back them with any/all moral support they need; but as for money, I've earned my share of what little the 51% has, and I've already earmarked my political and charitable groups for that.
It isn't clear to me that big supporters of the porn industry here actively work toward unionizing male workers, or promoting such an idea. I assume you're a tireless supporter of such activities yourself?
