“Marina Ann Hantzis (alias Sasha Grey) is a porn star who sucks dicks and drinks urine for money. What separates Ms. Hantzis from the oodles of sex workers on the Internet is the fact that she parades herself around as an intellectual, and every time she’s in an interview she paints herself as a strong and empowered feminist heroine. Did we mention she licks toilet seats for money? Truly, she is a role model for young women everywhere.”
If she’s making the choice to do it, and enjoys herself, and is completely comfortable and giving consent, how is that wrong? It’s empowering because she’s in control of her actions, and she is happy. Discrediting her for her own personal choices, is just along the same lines of slut shaming, and negativity on sex workers. I’m so sick of this purity myth, and taboo of sex, and the sex workers involved in the industry. If little girls can see that she is successful in the sense that she is HAPPY, and she is doing what she wants, then I don’t see the problem. Sex exists, it always will, I’m sick of it being shamed, and those who take pleasure in it, and even choose to do it for a living. Whatever. I seriously have so much respect for Sasha Grey, keep on keeping on grrrrl!
You know, Tyra Banks brought up this exact instance of licking a toilet seat to Sasha Grey during her sex worker special, as proof that she MUST be an exploited and brainwashed pawn of the porn industry. And you know what Sasha told her? She directed this fucking movie. She licked the toilet seat not because someone told her to for money, but because she came up with the idea herself and thought it was ridiculously hot. Some women who are empowered and intelligent in their everyday lives are turned on by pretending to be helpless dirty sluts while being fucked. I happen to be one of them. And we have every right to express our sexuality however the fuck we want, without it being any reflection upon who we are outside of the bedroom. So hell yeah this photo represents feminism, I think it represents the best kind of feminism there is.
Agreed ^
Sex workers are so frowned upon and I think it’s stupid. You can not diss Sasha, shes the best. She is very intelligent and I love how intact with her sexuality she is. So yes, she is a good role model for women. If you think other wise you can suck my cock.
mer she’s so wonderful.
preach it
Good fucking on her, seriously. She could shit on a plate and then eat it- as long as she’s happy with what’s she’s doing, then good on her. Even if she was forced into the sex industry (like many women are) and she hated her job, she’s still a human being and she shouldn’t be looked down on.
