Uuughh, some people are so self-righteous!

There's a video doing the rounds on FB of a 'prank' played on women auditioning to be porn stars, basically. Sure, it's maybe not considered the most honourable profession around, but I don't think that's any excuse for the disgusting behaviour shown in that video.

Basically, the man behind the camera is the one interviewing these women. Insulting their intelligence, their looks, etc.. It's hard to explain without watching the video, but it's just disgraceful. For a start, the first woman in the video even admitted she hates it. So why would she do it? Probably because she has no-where else to turn. It's no reason for somebody to be so insulting.

And if somebody does want to do it, why does that make them a bad person? Or somebody to be looked down on and treated like dirt? It makes me sick!

I don't use FB so haven't seen the vid. But it sounds like a piece of male malevolence towards women.

Could be that he is man who genuinely feels that women shouldn't degrade themselves in this way. But neither should men, to be honest.

I don't think any "sex" star will ever be taken totally seriously. Sex should be private.

Yes Hayley it should be. But not these days, unhappily - it's public entertainment, available to one and all.

I agree Hayley that sex should be private. But so many women find themselves with no other means of getting jobs, or get forced into jobs like that. If the same amount of effort was put into helping these women, instead of degrading them, they might not have to.

I also don't believe that people should be treated like dirt because of it.

No one deserves to be made to feel like they are of less value. Not seen the video but sounds like someone cashing in on others misery and degrading them while they are already at a low point.

I admire your compassion Eleanor and Mike, but many women (or even men) find themselves, for whatever reason, unable to find a job. And I'd be ready to bet that 99.99% of those women (or even men) would rather starve in the gutter than prostitute themselves. Not that they need to starve in the gutter these days, thanks to social welfare.

Not disputing that. Just making reference to the woman in the video, who admitted she hated what she did but didn't have a choice. No matter what somebody decides to do with their body, I don't believe it gives others the right to torture them.

Tbh, another video will probably surface in a few weeks, proving that the first one was a fake. That's usually how it goes!

Well, without seeing the video I really shouldn't comment any further. But being me, I will - she probably couldn't have got a job as head of a big international paying big bucks (and I would hazard a guess that big bucks is what she was after) but she did have a choice - there are plenty of opportunities for cleaning ladies, for example. Scrubbing floors, for most women, would be preferable and much more honourable than having sex with a stranger for money, with or without the cameras.

Having said that, filming and then holding these women up for ridicule is not advancing the "moral majority" cause imo, just demonstrating male malevolence. I'll bet there won't be a similar video about wannabe male porn stars.
