the entire premise of your objection is "what about women in porn?"
OC listed three jobs total, the premise being that jobs in which a tryout is a useful evaluation tool are rare.
There is no a priori reason to believe that the very different jobs that men and women have as porn actors should both fall into this rare category.
Unless, of course, you're reflexively looking to take offense at the idea that men and women are not interchangeable.
- throwanem 1y agoSomeone has reflexively taken offense at something here. It's clear who and I think I see what, but I have to confess myself still mystified as to why. All I've said is that women also act and that's also hard work. I didn't say it is the same job, only that it is no easier. Why does that bother you so?
- mathgradthrow 1y agoBecause no one was talking about the difficulty of the task except for you, and you chose to get indignant.
