Forgeting about the india comparison for a sec, there are degrees of 'voluntary.' There are no girls out there who think that they want to be in porn when they grow up.

I suspect that few people grow up wanting to be gas station attendants either. I grew up wanting to be a test pilot, that didn't work out but I am certainly in my current field entirely voluntarily.

  As far as I know, there are no documentaries made about how it sucks to be a gas attendant.

    Maybe that means it doesn't suck to be a gas attendant, or maybe that means everybody knows it sucks to be a gas attendant, or maybe that just means that nobody gives a shit about gas attendants at all.

A friend of mine did want to go into porn as a young teen. She decided not to one she was old enough, because it did not pay enough. There are a lot of people out there and most of them don't think like you do.

I didn't say it was awesome, I said it wasn't the same as assault and possible rape.

One of those degrees is definitely "sure, that sounds like a turnon." There is certainly legitimate exploitation, but it's not like Paris Hilton did it to make rent.

Porn is definitely a sensitive subject around here. I have been down voted into oblivion before for bringing it up. I guess the accepted opinion around here is as long as women get paid to be objectified its all cool. And ofcourse there are no effects of such objectification on any of the minds that make up this enlightened society. EDIT: Pretty sure everyone arguing for there being a big difference thinks things like Steubenville are just random events too.

  Sorry, widespread assault and the experience described in the article are in no way the same as the everyday experiences of women in the western world. If you think they are you're delusional.
