We can mock and in many ways that's rightfully so, but it does seem like she seems to have real and legitimate remorse. I feel sorry for her. What she did was still self-inflicted, and even putting those looks aside I probably wouldn't want to date her either. But she seems to have some level of self awareness that she wants something that isn't on offer to her anymore. That kinda sucks for people who do try and meaningfully change.
I dunno. On the one hand she made her bed. On the other, there should be ways back that don't leave people who legitimately want to change for the better behind in shitty places.
Hahaha bro you fell for it. She's not sorry, she's sorry she's suffering consequences.
She'd still be doing porn now if that got her more sympathy. There is a reason the whole siren song, mermaid, succubus mythos exists. Because bad women can lure in men who feel bad for them.
Nah, I just believe that there's redemption possible for all of us, and that removing any capability for a way back removes any point to ever try bettering ones self.
If a person cannot heal from the mistakes of their past, why ever try in the first place? Why not just keep being the shitty person if it continues to benefit them? To blatantly use and abuse people as she sees fit? You think that she couldn't? That it isn't possible?
I already said that I wouldn't take her in myself, but for fucks sake there has to be something other than continued and unending condemnation, otherwise what's the fucking point of changing her ways? It's entirely possible to feel bad for a person without wanting to fuck them or to give them shit for free. It's not some failure to suggest that IF she is sincere that the situation is shit.
But let me ask you a hypothetical. Assume for a second that this person DOES in fact feel sorry. That she does in fact hold remorse for the life she has lead. That she truly does want to change. Put aside the belief, regardless of how probable, that she's lying through her teeth. How would she achieve that change without being a "siren"? How would she avoid being a "bad woman luring in men"? She's done a lot of shitty things in the past, but exactly how does one move past that and try to start healing? Or is there no redemption? She should just go find the nearest gun and suck-start it ASAP? There are very few things I would deem as irredeemable. Being a porn star isn't one of those things.
She can absolutely endeavor to live a better life now and in the future, and she can absolutely redeem herself in the eyes of both her fellow man and the lord - but she can never regain her chastity or purity. Those things are gone for good, and she did not spend them in exchange for a husband and a family but rather for the fleeting rewards of attention and money. She can’t unring that bell. If her definition of redemption is going back to square one and doing it all over again the right way, then she’s delusional. Life doesn’t work that way. A lot of the mistakes we make are enduring. And contrary to popular belief, the earlier we commit those mistakes in life, the greater the consequences.
Well said. Redemption is not an imaginary reset button that forces the world to pretend nothing ever happened.
Redemption would be outreach to girls growing up, helping them understand their goals of becoming a whore when they leave high school is the wrong path. Redemption would be to push against pornographers scouting the stupid. Redemption would be teaching men that they're better than whipping out the credit card for a glimpse of titty.
So far all I see is whining to the press about how that imaginary reset button is imaginary.
