Thinking that all the girls that do content in the US are happy thriving businesswomen compared to the overseas girls is a little naive.
Not every girl is Jenna Jameson.
Most of the girls are poor. Many get Aids and dies of strange gunshot wounds
. A lot of them are forced into this profession (prostitution and porn) - maybe in a less violent environment - but very little of the girls that do porn went to study it in University.
Thinking that the girls in the US work in a loving and caring environment and do it for fun and therefore, unlike the poorer countries, is morally good to pay them for their work is not too convincing for me.
Note btw - that the trading in women into Israel (From russia and other former soviet union countries) as well as into other countries has little to do with content. Specifically with relation to Israel - afaik - Israel is not really a source for cheap content (correct me if I am wrong) mainly due to the fact that Israel is not as cheap as some European countries and therefore the content wouldn't be cheap.
To be honest - the main thing that bothers me in our industry is the content. I realize we are all into "business" but the content side, production and especially the "dark" side of it is bugging me at least a bit. I myself was never into producing content so I don't really know anything for a fact - so input from content producers is appriciated.
What are your thoughts about it?
