@Gamer99z posted...RE_expert44 posted... I agree that there are options and that a lot of it is self imposed to an extent. When you've got someone like her who's seemingly been doing professional porn since as soon as she was of legal age to do so and didn't pursue other options like college during that time, it can be hard to go from making like 10k a month out in Los Angeles shooting porn and then the only other thing you're qualified to do is flip patties at McDonald's for minimum wage. It's hard to break that cycle at that point and just stop doing porn or change to another career, especially with how you're treated just in your day to day life. Even if you try to go to school and pursue other options you run into issues where you can face discrimination if you try to join a more professional workplace and field on par with that of a convicted felon or something. And yeah you can get into cam work and stuff but that's hardly really considered changing careers, you're still ultimately stuck in the same place with the same type of work and in the case of someone like Bree in the video, she wanted out of that type of work all together. In local news out here a little while back there was a teacher that got fired for having done porn like a decade ago once and her ex bf sent an email to someone at the school district about it when they broke up. I'm not saying porn stars necessarily have it worse than other people in similar positions of being low skilled workers or for other types of discrimination such as being a convict (which is pretty fucked up that porn stars face discrimination on par with criminals) but that simply saying to change careers isn't really always a realistic option for most professional porn stars on the level August was. --- "You need to lay off the peanut-butthurt and u-jelly sandwiches" - Neon Octopus ...

Zeeak4444 posted...2) Normal job is redundant these days. With that type of fan base she could go cammodel and be perfectly fine So go indepent with your own website you don't want to go with a company. As for the other part obviously if the internet turns on you then you don't make money. That's how it is for everyone, which is why I included alternatives if she got out of porn all together. That's why I asked multiple times earlier what the goal is. I mean, people falling on hard times is nothing new. She has more resources at her disposal for pivoting to something else than the majority of the nation. You can hate the porn industry. I personally do. That's about it though. You can hate society for not sticking with you but that's nothing unique. --- Typical gameFAQers are "Complainers that always complain about those who complain about real legitimate complaints."-Joker_X ...

@Gamer99z
I agree 100% and I remember the case you're talking about. I mean I personally hate society in general because of situations like this or with that teacher. It's a fickle bitch of a situation in general but don't get me wrong while I'm saying the things I say I am exactly where you're at; it's shitty they turned on her, that her fans didn't back her (apparently) but also offset but someone who's made really really good money but didn't invest the money nor did she invest in herself. I'm trying to stay away from her suicide as a whole because that's a completely different topic all together IMO but for her work situation it's just another one who's fallen through the cracks. I have more empathy than I can express for the broken, the beaten, and the damned, but I feel like the job topic is pretty open and shut. No publicity is bad publicity, just gotta spin it to something that works for you these days. --- Typical gameFAQers are "Complainers that always complain about those who complain about real legitimate complaints."-Joker_X ...

I do believe it's someone's right, but to say you shouldn't feel bad for a suicide is dumb because it's generally a tragic situation that led them to suicide and they more than likely didn't legitimately want to die anyways but just saw it as the best option for them.

I hope this comes as a lesson to people that bullying ain't cool, even when you're right.
I do think the criticisms of porn stars who refuse to do scenes for bigoted reasons is justified. At the same time, there always seem to be people who use stuff like this as an excuse to attack, attack, attack and be as mean or vicious as they want without worrying about facing negative consequences. With things like this it's important to look at yourself honestly and ask... am I really trying to make things better? Or just trying to make myself feel good by tearing someone else down? And also more people who aren't involved in the industry need to butt out. --- i am truley sorry for your lots ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah, it would take a really strong tendency to make impulsive decisions if she was just living a perfectly happy life and then over a matter of two days decided to kill herself over this. It might've been what pushed her over the edge but I seriously doubt it would be the primary reason. --- "You need to lay off the peanut-butthurt and u-jelly sandwiches" - Neon Octopus ...

People who tend to commit suicide from bullying tend to be in a pretty dark place when it happens. She was probably in one, and all this just pushed her over the edge/the point she could cope. Doesn't change the fact that the people who sent her death threats and the level of abuse they did are anything but monsters. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Zeeak4444 posted...So go indepent with your own website you don't want to go with a company I mean I agree with you but there's no resolution to be had. You can't compain it's unfair the public doesn't want to support you because that's nothing unique to the situation. In reality it's just another celeb out of the limelight who's got little to no skills for a normal job. I find it hard to believe she couldn't become an event planner or something of the like though. Sure she might not have been able to but it's no more likely than her being able to. The harassment and bullying sucks and that shit should be looked into but outside that it's like I said, just another person who's falling through the cracks. At least she made really good money until that point, most people in the same type of situation don't. --- Typical gameFAQers are "Complainers that always complain about those who complain about real legitimate complaints."-Joker_X ...

ClunkerSlim posted...Zeeak4444 posted... I agree with you but I just felt like adding in, not just because of this post, but also the last one to me where you mentioned how dumb it is making that much money and not bettering yourself while you were making it as a safety net. Obviously that's the smart thing to do, but there's also an important discussion to be had about the predatory tactics of some of these professional porn companies and other shady tactics. They find young girls who are on the cusp of being legal who likely come from situations that aren't great and basically try to talk them into this gig of only doing it however many times just to make some quick money, etc. and will intentionally manipulate vulnerable people into getting sucked into more and more. As well as it being a known issue of people in the industry pushing drugs and other addictive substances onto people who might already be at an increased risk of addiction due to past issues that even got them to that position. As well as people convincing you to invest in yourself, as in surgeries and the like and that it can make you more profitable and such, which many people, again due to past issues, are probably at a higher rate of developing problems with like physical insecurity and the like which can lead to legitimate addictions to those kinds of surgeries and procedures. Next thing you know you're in a situation where the fact that you're a porn star is going to follow you everywhere, you're older than when you started, unskilled, and don't have anything to fall back on. The only thing you're really qualified to do is other sex industry work or potentially other types of social media or socialite activities if you're lucky or just turn to retail, waitressing, patty flipping, etc. where you'll still face discrimination but at least be working, but getting paid shit compared to what you were and if you're in a major porn city like LA with insane costs of living, you might be in a situation where you feel like the only short term option you have to make it by is to do porn again, which also gets you back around those scummy people who ultimately profit off you being kept down. Again, as a disclaimer I'm not trying to paint these people as flawless individuals and remove their personal choices and consequences, I'm just saying there's a larger discussion to be had as well and it's not all black and white. --- "You need to lay off the peanut-butthurt and u-jelly sandwiches" - Neon Octopus ...
