If you spend any time going to the places on the internet where porn is displayed and unfiltered porn viewer comments are available, you’ll quickly discover that a subset of porn viewers love to say horrible, terrible, cruel, judgmental things about porn models. Fortunately I moderate the Spanking Blog comments in such a way that you never have to see these things here. From my way of looking at it, spanking models are a part of the Spanking Blog community too (or could be, even if they haven’t delurked yet) so I never allow cruel crap about the models in a picture to pass through my moderation queue. But trust me, some of the horrible attitudes on would-be display would shock you if you haven’t experienced something like it elsewhere on the web.
I can’t even begin to imagine what it must be like to experience this as the model. However, spanking model Alex Reynolds recently wrote a stirring rebuttal to some of these “critics”. What follows is just a bit of the intro material and the first two of 14 bullet points; the whole thing is well worth your time:
I love making porn. I want to clear up some myths about it for you:
- I don’t do porn because I have to. I chose to out of my free will.
- I have an amazing education. The details of this aren’t important to this argument, nor do they need to be public knowledge, and I’m not going to tell you how smart I think I am, because no one wants to hear that, but I have a very respectable degree from an excellent school. I choose to do porn in addition to working freelance in a creative field. This combination makes me happy. I’m not an anomaly here. I actually know more girls who do porn that have degrees than who don’t.This is what we chose to do with our lives for our happiness.
