What ya' think of Lady Gaga in meat?

Women (or people in general) should be free to do whatever they like as long their actions don't harm others (or themselves). But feminists would argue that a statistically signficant number of porn stars do go on to have serious mental health issues, and more significantly, their work reinforces ridiculous, socially constructed notions such as those espoused by jackmell (which basically serves as an egregious justification for rape).

Yes. Excellent points. This is a much more rational stance than the usual "it degrades all women" argument.

Gee, and here I thought I was the one who brought up the mental health issues, instead of painting women as so easily degradable. Really, this just shows that we abuse the stupid and the damaged... which is hardly news. In essence, we continue to underestimate mental illness and the effects of trauma in our insistence to assign everything as "personal responsibility".
