No need to argue Player. We just some Black men sciencing it out. Racial dynamics are constantly present. ESPECIALLY in porn. But I guess that's okay with a lot of people because they're beating their meat so they not conscious of it. Or maybe they are but like you said they looking at ass and titties so they don't give a fuck. I think I like ass and titties as much as the next man but my consciousness is always at work. Ass and titties don't change that. And just so you know I rarely think of Belle Knox ugly ass. The only reason I did then was because someone posted her pic. But when I do see that bitch I know she racist.
I don't want to prolong this exchange because this really isn't the best forum for an in-depth discussion of this topic. But I do want to clarify something.
I'm not some dumb coomer who loses brain function at the sight of ass and titties. Of COURSE I understand and am acutely aware of the various social subtexts in porn--whether it has to do with race, class, gender, the conceptions of masculinity and femininity, deviance, the current obsession with incest/step-daughters, step-siblings etc.
I think where I differ is that I view porn as a kind of fantasy zone. It's almost like a safe space where we are able to air some of these psychological tensions without judgment.
Like, some people take shit in porn very personally.... stuff like, say, race play. Like those movies where white women fuck black men and call them n****rs, or slavery fetishes, cuckoldry etc. They feel the participants in these games are actually racist.
I dont think they are.
I believe that in America, we as a society at large are burdened down with a ton of psychic baggage regarding race, violence, sex and other shit. It's because of our unique history. You look at porn from other countries and it doesn't have the same flavor as American porn. Like in French porn, a lot of the anxiety seems to be around Arabs/Muslims much more than black men.
So these anxieties are embedded in us all as Americans... and they manifest in a number of ways. Shit like slavery porn is just a way of trying to engage and reckon with that psychological trauma through a form of play. Like how comedy is often a way of dealing with painful subjects through laughter.
That's how I was able to tolerate the existence of something like Ghetto Gaggers (not that I was ever a big fan). I saw it as a form of exorcism of psychosexual demons than real, actual racism.
However, my attitude towards GG changed during the Trump era when the guys started very actively tweeting their racist views... and their videos got more violent and hateful. And then one of them got busted for actually trying to kill black people in real life. I couldn't look at it like a game anymore.
But outside of that... to me, it is slightly weird being obsessed with whether or not the performers in porn might bear racial prejudices in real life. Like I said, this thread shows that most of y'all don't even regard them as human beings worthy of dignity or respect... so why do you care about their personal opinions on ANYTHING? In the course of doing their work, they are objectified to the point that they're barely looked at as real people. The truth is, the average viewer is there to watch bodies in motion... the thoughts in their heads are largely irrelevant for most. (Except for people like us who are interested in the behind-the-scenes. But even then, I dont see it as being overly relevant.)
