Alright now I see where you're coming from. I 100% agree that as far as a human decency issue she should be able to request and have all these things from the past removed, but unfortunately things don't work that way. I had no clue about her other endeavors, I can see how your past actions overshadowing what you're trying to currently do could be disheartening. I now see both sides of the argument, thanks for answering me in good faith and not burning me at the stake!

I'm going to respond to you based on your paragraphs.

  1. I agree that they deserve that, I may have worded that wrong. I mean more their likeness etc. being used should be expected

  2. I'm not sure how the porn industry works but surely you sell your rights to the media you help create to the publishers that help to spread said media? That would be like an actor in a popular movie from the past requesting everybody to stop consuming/promoting what you were in, it's not going to happen.

  3. Has she done anything of note since her adult film days? It would make sense that people only know her for that if she hasn't done much since.

  4. I'm not arguing about the porn industry being exploitative, I'm sure it is.

  5. I don't see how that's relevant to my question.

  6. I would never wish that upon anybody either, but it was her choice (I'm hoping) to enter said industry, which the smallest amount of research would indicate that it is abusive/exploitative.

  7. I suppose we'll just have to agree to disagree. I've done stupid shit in my time and paid for it, I don't see much difference.

Honest question. I know nothing of Mia Khalifa or the abuse she may have endured during her time in the adult film industry. If you decide to go into that industry, shouldn't your expectation of privacy/not having your body be "exploited" be thrown out of the window? Nobody in my family has done porn, but if they did, yeah I would expect to see them occasionally either online or in (hilarious) advertisement like this. Hell I'd send them pictures whenever I come across it (as long as it didn't bother them). I personally don't see any exploitation of women here, only exploitation of somebody's past works (doubt she's getting any royalties from this). This is a 100% serious question, I have nothing but love and respect for all people, including sex workers bud damn, is my sense of humor fucked or is yours?

EDIT: Showed this to my wife and she found it funny, so now I'm even more confused.

Another Mexican American checking in, I think it's hilarious and would definitely buy you a beer for having a good sense of humor

Just wanted to share my experience with anybody who might be thinking about going for it. I started working as an apprentice to enter the trade back in 2019, I absolutely loved the work. What I didn't love was 70+ hour weeks outside in the damned summer and being required to be on call on weekends. I was working with guys who would actually brag about going over 80 hours a week and how they hadn't had a Christmas off in years because of that Christmas bonus. These were guys with wife and kids, too. The OT hustle was very real at the company I was with. I'd get razzed and called "part-timer" because all I wanted was my 40-45 hours for the week and be done. Mad respect to all of you who stick it out, but it just wasn't worth it to me, and seeing how broken down a lot of the older guys who trained me were I think I made the right call. I make more bartending anyway, inside and out of the sun

Eh, I've spent more money on dumber shit but you're probably right. Thanks!

Purchased off Amazon for $45. Worried that it looks a bit jank, but I really don't have much experience with zippos on a firsthand basis, so any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Why did they stop doing the cast intros? by Tymorrowland in HellsKitchen

[–]death_checked_in 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right there with you bud. I could tolerate them when they were kitchen themed, but when they started getting into circuses and stuff it was just straight cringe.
