One of the things they leave off the adult industry is this as a consequence. You are making sex, which biologically should be restrained to just a man and a woman, and turning it into a commodity to be bought.
Considering all the biology at play DURING sex that is meant to encourage mates to pair up and stay in a relationship, you trying to turn that into 'give me a few dollars and you can use me' will fuck you up mentally as your body on average will reject this.
Yup, many pornstars die young from overdose or suicide, and I think another just died a few weeks ago from overdose?
[EDIT]...Yup, Jesse Jane: https://www.koco.com/article/oklahoma-moore-cindy-taylor-brett-hasenmueller-found-dead-jesse-jane/46536263
The male performers are the only ones with a conscience enough to talk about why suicide is so prevalent in the industry, and a lot of it deals with what you just mentioned: it's hard for them to cope when the cameras stop rolling, and to drown out the shame a lot of them resort to drugs and/or substance abuse. The interviews with former male pornstars shed actual light on the issues instead of just blaming the "patriarchy" or some other such nebulous forms of "abuse" that the female performers attempt to defer to in order to sweep all culpability under the rug.
Marketwatch even did an article about the alarming suicide rates in that industry: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/deaths-of-despair-are-rising-among-adult-film-actresses-2018-01-24
But of course, the Tiny Hat commission ensures that the general public are always led to believe that there's nothing wrong with the porn industry and their alarming suicide rates is just par the course of suicides going up in general: https://archive.is/rQtI4
It's funny the author doesn't even bother to cross-reference suicide rates by other professions just to gauge the averages -- would have been interesting comparing it to law enforcers, firefighters, or anyone doing anything remotely respectable.
And of course, Vice had to run a damage control article claiming there's nothing wrong with porn, and all the negative things said about it have been "debunked", including that the average lifespan of porn performers is around 36 years of age (which is super ironic given the age of the woman in the OP's article who offed herself): https://archive.is/wip/4xfE6
As is typical of any Left-wing equivocation, the article never even bothers to put out what the correct figure is; it just runs damage control so coomers keep cooming.
All that being said, I am giddy to see suicide rates continue to skyrocket as more women realise they've permanently ruined their lives with OnlyFans.
The burgeoning loneliness epidemic set to hit in 2030, with completely plummeting birth rates, and lawlessness out of hand, I think we're almost at the cusp of seeing the West truly fall. A bunch of women hitting 35+ and killing themselves will likely help speed up the collapse, because without the collapse there is no way to rebuild.
It's a messed up subject. Tech has a porn problem. The newer the tech, the more likely it's being used for porn. The more advanced it's use, the more illegal stuff gets way ahead. I did research on it decades ago and decided my soul wasn't worth it.
Only Fans is the newest of a long game from porn, and every step has made women think their bodies were their only asset. It has also advanced tech like Zoom, YouTube, and others.
You wrote a great article. May I copy it?
Ha, I didn't write any of the articles I linked. This was just an off the cuff comment; but feel free to copy-pasta away.
It's being added to my list. Thank you.
Women’s capacity to have children and form families is absolutely their greatest asset. This power has been perverted by feminism and birth control. That’s pretty much the story.
Both dying of an OD screams contaminated stash. Unironically wonder if they died because of fentanyl in whatever they were taking.
Fentanyl is being used as a convenient scapegoat to deflect from deaths caused by vaccine-induced myocarditis. Cocaine spikes your heart rate up to 180+, and hearts damaged by the vax simply can’t handle it. It looks like an overdose, and it technically still is, but we’re seeing way more cases of it now.
Playing soccer also spikes your heart rates into the 170-190 range, which is why vaxxed athletes are dropping dead. I doubt their Gatorade was laced with fentanyl.
Just nitpicking, but I think the videotaped side of the "business" is still too young to have had its first generation fully die off.
But this is all normal because we always had dancing girls and prostitutes!!
Oh sorry, I don't know what came over me.
That's part of the problem, are those the same? Functionally, sure, she's selling a service with her body. As far as the processes, outcomes, and legalities? You could argue they're quite different.
For instance, one reason I could see women in taped porn specifically becoming prone to addiction is because of the filming process. Cuts, reshoots, the possible hours involved.
You're actually correct, it's a good faultline that comes up in a few discussions about the average lifespan of a performer for that exact reason: it's still a fairly recent industry in regards to the performers who gained popularity from the technological ease-of-access to porn.
However, there is little attempt from the establishment to fund extensive research into the impact(s) it has on the performers/society at large because there will never be a positive-enough outcome they could spin that would outweigh or justify the negative side-effects it entails for both those involved in producing it and those involved in consuming it.
At least that article included a paragraph about an org trying to get people out of the industry. The rest was pretty funny though. Pornstars are committing suicide, let's
Calling suicide an "untreated epidemic" is kind of like saying the obesity epidemic is untreated. As if the solution lies in more drug prescriptions instead of the forces that cause people to make terrible choices.
Make money creating a problem, then make money creating a solution. Seems on brand to me.
Yes, that's quite telling isn't it? One of the most recurring things the women always say is, "After I get home I just start crying all night."
There was an interview with a former adult actress in Japan, and she said the exact same thing -- she would finish a shoot and then just go home and breakdown crying uncontrollably. Brittany De La Mora mentioned that she and others would use heroin to cope.
Their body was literally trying to forcibly tell them that they were breaking.
And to your point about the men, yes even with that biological predisposition, they noted that the work was so dehumanising (since they were basically a paid erection attached to a body no one cared about) that suicidal thoughts became prevalent. Their humanity had been reduced to little more than sexual tools with no other value.
Not to mention forming normal relationships - as much as there's a general acceptance there's still a stigma for most of the normal population
It’s not even about stigma. Women who fuck dozens of dudes are literally psychologically broken. They cannot properly pair bond.
