Pornstars and Abuse

A while ago I was listening to the radio show Loveline with Dr.Drew Pinsky and Adam Corrola. Dr. Drew made the satement that every female pornstar does porn as a result of sexual abuse in her past. This makes sense to me but as I think about it, I think about how many women are doing porn. Anyone familiar with internet porn knows there are literally millions of women doing porn. So my point is, if all the millions of women doing porn were abused in their past, this would suggest that we have an epidemic of abuse victims on our hands. Is Dr. Drew wrong? If not the statistics are troubling.
 
He might be Right or Wrong... But what Actually I think that Most of the girls choose porn as a job just for money... you know why because they enjoy sex more then male partner but they earn money for enjoying... :)
Who don't want to earn money even when you enjoy...
Now Many of member would say why don't boys turn to "Gay" if they proposed 1 million bucks .. it is simple this is not comes in main stream of community... I don't know whether I able to clarify my this point or not....
Now try to think Over next possibility too.....
Many also comes because of Black-mailer but continues it after blackmailer quit his job after complete exploitation... You know why because they got addicted to disrespectful hardcore sex but here they earn money tooo....

Thats it......... it is only my feeling about reason why girls comes in porn... totally might be away from reality...

My opinion is not based on any researches or investigations, but just on logic: I think that 99% of women in porn do it for money, cuz they can't find a different job with similar income. And it all has nothing to deal with sex abuse.

and btw, I do not know about million of women doing porn. Even in the internet, I think it is still about thousands.

Wrong. Howard Stern used to ask girls if that was true and they would say no. Although some said it was true. The majority is just freak hos wantin to get paid for sex.
 
In the USA

The Silent Epidemic​
An incident of sexual abuse happens every 2.5 minutes in the USA, according to statistics of the U.S. Department of Justice. Over 200,000 Americans are victims of sexual abuse (SA) every year. This statistic may be less than the actual number of cases, due to the tendency to victims not to report their abuse to authorities. These numbers dwarf any other social problem in America. Medical studies and surveys show that about 20-30 percent of women and about ten percent of men have been sexually abused by the age of 18.

I get outraged about abuse

Well he asked Jenna Jameson and she said no but she later released a book that said she was gang raped in highschool. Most of you know that you can literally surf porn for hours and not see the same girl twice. If they have all been sexually abused then the numbers are mind boggling.
 
Not all girls do it because abuse. Some just love sex. Or have a body and know they can cash in on it because we'd sponsor them.

I think most of us like to think this but I'm not so sure. I don't think many people even think about this because let's face it. it's a huge buzzkill and it's a complicated issue.

I don`t know....With all the worries that I have in my life and that are themselves too much for me,I really can`t burden my mind with such stuff.Don`t get me wrong....
 
it's just a tired old sterotype borne out of no doubt at least some truth.

these days though, with the advent of sexual liberation, and our overly hedonistic lifestyles, lol, I don't think it really applies that much.

although then again, it all depends what's considered abuse.

One could argue for the fact that some of the newbie, barely 18 girls are too naive and immature to really grasp some of the crap they agree to do.
 
Women do porn because of the money they can earn. True their porn careers will be short - circa 5 years doing hardcore and they can extend this by doing just solo scenes.

The abuse the women are subjected to emanates from the misogynists who, unfortunately, control many aspects of hiring, production and directing.
 
This is starting to get away from the original intent of this thread. There is already a thread discussing abuse in actual porn movies. I started this to discuss the connection between women who got into porn because of a history of sexual abuse prior to their career.
 
Is Dr. Drew wrong?

yes and no. while I believe that a great many of them are "sexually abused" in the way that we typically understand the meaning, there is also a lot of people that have been abused in other ways... but since all abuse effects people in damaging their sense of self, that can extend to their sexuality as well. Do you understand my meaning here?

I think that almost everyone in porn has been damaged in some way, but moreso I think the fact is that mostly everyone has.

I know the statistics, but those are just numbers. what I do know is that pretty much every woman I know has been either sexually or physically (non-sexual) abused, or both. How many people have been emotionally abused? we live in a society that is permeated by violence and even if it doesn't effect us personally, it still effects our outlook of our surroundings. I think that nearly everyone experiences trauma because of this.

I never really thought that I had an abusive life, until I started to feel the bad effects of being a drug addict and having people hate me. Then it occurred to me that there is probably something wrong with me that made my life turn out so fucked up.

I was never physically or sexually abused as kid, but like a great many people through my developing years my father wasn't around. My mom was around and she never listened to me.

I can see now that the reason that all my relationships bombed out was because they totally fit the pattern of an abuse, although I was never violent.

It's something that you never really think about, but if you don't have any models or experience on how a relationship is supposed to work, how can you make one? you think that it's just going to come naturally, but it's not.

I hurt a lot of people, not because I was trying to, but just because I never thought about what I was doing and if it was really the right things or not.

Hmm, I find this one hard to believe without a credible reference. I know that Drew Pinsky has a reputation of being... "opinionated." Still, I don't think that he'd make such a statement that could be so easily disproven by one female pornstar who wasn't abused.

BTW, is Dr. Drew known for making statements that can't be proven and/or aren't backed up by other reliable sources? I never watch nor listen to Loveline, so I wouldn't know.
 
I used to listen to Howard Stern a lot probably 10 years ago...he claimed all pornstars were molested as kids...while that may have been true to some degree in 90s porn...in modern porn, I think the new crop of girls getting into the biz actually WANT to be pornstars. It's becoming a B-List Hollywood celebrity status now for the girls. Soon we'll see TMZ and E! treat pornstars as if they were mainstream celebs (if they don't already)..

I think most abused women in porn got into porn through their "boyfriend pimps" who simply identified a beautiful (hurt) girl who was stripping...and filled her mind with thoughts about "making money"..."do it for us, honey" etc. etc.

I think most producers and directors in porn in the 90s and today are insecure loser dudes who never got laid in high school...but they cobbled money together and now live out their "superiority fetishes" on film...

Woman do porn because sex is great, not because they were abused.

God forbid a woman would have agency in her own life, and decide to enter porn on her own. I'm getting really sick of people assuming the choices porn stars make can't really be their own - it must be a product of abuse, mental instability, blah blah blah. Everyone has to take ownership for their own choices in life.

Let's face it, if people really cared about the mental health of porn stars, they wouldn't watch much porn. It's all fine when we're getting off, but if we're not in the act of masturbation, righteous indignation reigns supreme around here.
