Perhaps I go a little beyond the line on this topic. I don't even allow the words "teen" or "young" to be used on galleries submitted to my TGP's. I'd rather there not be any question about the content on my sites in regards to age of the models. |

Hypocrisy ?
Quote:
The above reflects a general trend that one can come across quite often and really deserves some thought. Everyone agrees that no one wants CP in any context. BUT its disingenuous to cry about political interference on the one hand and then say on the other ooooo, she "looks" too young. Cripes its not her fault and if she is legal and has appropriate documentation and is sponsored by a reputable site how is it that a WM can feel comfortable with "censoring" her from making an income? If one doesn't have the guts to stand up then one shouldn't be in the business. If you are helping to enforce the atmoshpere of fear by self regulating materials that might, maybe, could piss someone off or won't portray porn that is "seeming" to skate close to some edge (in your opinoin) regardless of it being legal then you need to question whether there is another biz that's better suited to your fearful, squimish, gutless, lazy, nature. Legal is legal. There are now a ton of solo girl sites that are legal and use the proverbial "teddy bear" props or coy "finger to the mouth" looks. If you self censor these sites you are falling right into the hands of what you are complaining about in some other post about government over reaching. Of course you can run your biz the way you want. But think about hypocrisy and what it means? Also, how 'bout this "due diligence", know who you are working with, verify the reputable natures of the paysites you sponsor, research, etc. Lazy bottom feeding is repugnant and if a WM is failing to support sites that they know have their shit together and are legal (I mean how much more solid can you get than AFF?) because "they don't want any trouble....  then IMHO they should just beat it out the door. When do people get it through their heads that this is a "trouble" business?  Thank you for letting me get that off my chest... |

I don't like sites that play up pedo lust by making models look as young and possible and selling that angle in their text. So, what's a "young-looking" gal who wants to make porn to do? I never have used the words teen or young on my site. (I only mention my age once, on my bio page.) I don't do school girl or teddy bear sorts of shoots. I don't trade traffic with teen sites. My site does not look like a hearts-and-flowers-and-ponies teen site. (It was originally purple, gray, and pink, but I changed the design over to shades of blue, in part to look less "teen"-ish.) I am very quick to correct any viewer who asks in cam shows or email if I am a teen, and tell him I'm not into pedophilia (or hebephilia). I go out of my way to tell people I'm not a teen. If I get emails from affiliates asking about "teen Furry Girl", I tell them I do not run a teen site and I don't try to convert on teen traffic. It might not be perfect, but feel like I'm doing a pretty good job with not hyper-fetishing young g*rls. And, I just handed down a rule for my affiliates that they are no longer allowed to sell me as "young" or on any sort of age angle. (It's something that's irritated me for ages, but since the webmasters selling me as a teen weren't even converting well/at all, I figured it wasn't worth my time policing.) I can't really blame affiliates who are all over the "young" thing, though, since as a whole, the entertainment/adult/fashion industries are all obsessed with sexy l*ttle girls, and Joe Schmoe affiliate is just following suit. So, I do believe it is entirely possible to be a young-looking model and not be the next Little April. You don't have to wear pigtails and have stuffed animals on your bed. You don't have to use "teen" and "young" in your screen names and domains. It's a choice, and not all of us choose to portray ourselves as 14 year olds.

Yep, maybe just a skosh hostile DJ...but gotta admit...you are passionate in your views
 I'm much like Moby...my PERSONAL choices have nothing to do with a wish to censor anyone else. I will not promote nor do I list anything that 'I think' makes the girl look too young. And I don't promote or list anything that's overtly degrading or abusive to women. Those are my personal choices based on my own values. Do I think some of those things are bad for the business and the appearance they portray of us to the mainstream...yes, I do. But, it's not my job to police what others do...it's my job to police my own actions based on who I want to see in the mirror in the morning |
