Students analyze women objectified in pornography
 

dailyfreepress.com: Boston University students piled into the Photonics Center on Monday to view a documentary about sexual activity and aggression seen in pornography.
Students watched the documentary ?The Price of Pleasure,? directed by Miguel Picker and Chyng Sun, and discussed women?s rights in today?s society.
The Women?s Resource Center organized the screening in an effort to help educate students about how women?s rights are violated by some mainstream adult film industries.
The documentary delves deeper into the media?s supposed justification of pornography.
According to the film, the media feels it is appropriate to film and distribute porn because the girls are paid to be objectified. In reality, the film argues the girls are not the ones profiting from being filmed ? the producers and major corporations receive the majority of the profit. The film says the adult film industry makes from $10 to 14 billion per year in gross sales.
The documentary argues that as the industry expands, so does its social acceptance.
Whether it is right or wrong for individuals to create porn, both men and women are starting to feel the pressure of the porn industry in their everyday lives, the film says.
The film also highlights negative aspects of the porn industry, such as allegedly blatant racism and abuse of ethnic groups seen in certain films.
Out of a list of randomly selected popularly rented porn titles, 82.2 percent of them were found to contain physical aggression, according to the documentary.
Following the film screening, former adult film star and current dominatrix Princess Kali came to the stage to answer questions about her career in the porn industry.
Kali shared her views on how women in the porn industry are no different from many other careers in today?s society.
?People say women treat their body as a commodity,? she said. ?How is that any much different than a football player??
Event attendee and College of General Studies sophomore Ariana Katz said she thought the documentary was informative but not surprising.
?I?m not really shocked,? she said. ?The themes from porn come from people?s interactions with each other.?
College of Arts and Sciences senior and discussion panelist Emily Partridge said the adult film dilemma is key to women?s rights.
?There does need to be a line drawn so that men don?t think it?s normal,? she said.

the government should pass a law mandating all sexy women be required to strip naked in front of a camera.

It's amazing that such a complex thing as a government can exist.

Just remember, we are all separate individuals.

Ohhh Got it. So Bill Gates has been doing it wrong all this time.. He should have been giving all the money to the guy that prints the word windows on the boxes..

You mean like how the Walton family makes BILLIONS every year while the people that actually work at Wal-mart make minimum wage?

Bullshit. Maybe in the 80's when there was like one black guy making films. All I ever see now is hot white chicks fucking the nastiest niggars. Yeah those guys are sure being discriminated against aren't they? Getting to fuck hot white chicks and getting paid for it.


I think most men are smart enough to realize that bukkake and double anal isn't "normal".
