so there’s a pornstar with a huge feminist ego at duke shooting adult films trying to make ends meet.
any thoughts?
Pics or she doesn’t exist?
Funny though, I thought the point of feminisim was that women would have the opportunity to pursue serious careers so they would not have to resort to being sex objects, but apparently feminism is more concerned with giving female sexuality an equal or greater role in society than male.
Is she the director or the actress?
I thought it was a scam at first. But evidently she’s a rising a starlet who just started shooting from last December. Google duke pornstar. Duke found out about it first (duke chronicle) and she justified her feminism inspired porn career on ‘xojane’. She slut shames the male gender yet preys on feminist equality through men. Feminists say they’re about seeking equality for gender-sake in a righteous manner but at the end of the day it’s about money or sex.
Actress 
I’m not sure if writing her stage name on AF is frowned upon but she goes by Belle Knox. (Mods delete this if necessary)
I was on a bus once and sat opposite someone who I was 80% sure was a porn actress. I thought about asking “have you been on TV”, but I did not…
Also, I’m not sure what Ms. Xojane was thinking at the time, but she must have known that there is zero possibility of being a porn star and not being recognized at a college campus.
That was second generation feminism. Third generation feminism is about freedom of sexual expression. As someone who had to live through second generation feminism, I recommend not complaining about the third generation.
Womens view on freedom of sexual expression = I want to be slutty but want people to think of me as a virgin and not be judged. It’s like saying I want to kill people but want people to think of me as a nice person and not be judged.
This might be my favorite way I’ve ever seen somebody express that.
No. It’s about “as long as I am careful with my health, you shouldn’t care whether I’m a virgin or not.”
(Which I think is pretty sensible, actually)

Third generation feminists might be bordering on dissociative idenity disorder now.
This brings me to another point…just as this hypothetical woman in the argument above thinks “who are you to care?” can’t I also think “who are you to tell me what I should care about?”
I think feminism is about women having the same choices in life as men and not being judged for those choices. It doesn’t matter whether it’s career or sexuality.
It can apply to men in some cases too. For example some men can benefit from feminism for being able to make a choice to be a stay-at-home dad and not being judged (by both men and women) for that choice.
She does a much better job monetizing her assets than most sorostitutes that I remember from my college days. Seems to have decent analytical and writing skills too.
Is she available for hire? As a buy-side research associate, I mean.
I’ve seen this girl in some videos before.
Does she go to Fuqua?
It’s interesting how it is illegal to hire someone to have sex with you, but it is legal to hire someone to be filmed having sex with you.
Exactly! I want to be a call girl, but nobody will hire me. End the oppression!
Feminism means different things depending on what era the feminists were active in. That’s why you see people talking about first/second/third wave feminism. Of course, there’s no reason why feminism shouldn’t mean something different to you than what it meant to your mother or grandmother. The only problem is that it makes it difficult to know what exactly people are advocating for or criticizing.
I think even the most ardent right-wingers would be sympathetic to the concerns of first-wave feminists who were largely concerned with getting the government to accept women’s rights. However, even second-wave feminists weren’t necessarily saying that women could do whatever they want and not get judged for it. They may have advocated for stronger reproductive rights, but they were more asking for tolerance in taking advantage of those rights than asking that right-wingers accept their decisions.
Note that your comments about not being judged for sexual behavior are essentially Christian. Jesus protected the adultress from getting stoned, the historical version of slut-shaming. However, the difference between the historical and the modern, is that today’s “feminists” (and many of those on the far-left) don’t just want tolerance, don’t just want to not be judged; rather, they want acceptance. And not even just acceptance, but often want the government to pay for their lifestyle (see the Sandra Fluke controversy). Somehow not wanting to pay for some slut’s birth control becomes slut-shaming. Doesn’t really make sense to me.
I don’t get it. If we stop slut-shaming, there will be more slutty behavior going on.
How is that not win-win for everyone???
