Thanks for posting !!!! Nina Hartley is a great woman...a Idol-.

I wish Nina would have discussed her involvement in Sardanicism. Truth be told...she DOES call Black Men "Niggers" in her Interracial titles. Its unfortunate that she doesn't talk much on this subject if at all. She can discuss "Dirty Talk"...but she doesn't talk much about her using the tem "Nigger" to discribe "Black People. Its a very contraversial subject. But since her entire genre in contraversial...it shouldn't be too hard to talk about it. "Spring Thomas" Style Erotica is her fortay.

Nina, you totally opened my mind through this speech. As a feminist, I've always thought that no woman would every freely choose sex work. How naive was I.

Sex work must be decriminalized so that all sex workers can be given basic rights and protection. I have no doubt that this would decrease horrible sex trafficking, rape, murder, and other human rights violations.

Nina was present for one of my balloon climb-ins! I watched her give an awesome demo.

I like porn. Porn is art. But I am a viewer. I don't know how it's like from the inside (no pun intended) I mean from the perspective of the porn actors and actresses. It may or may not be sometimes quite hard for them. Michelangelo may or may not have been a nice guy in real life, but I admire his art above all. That's why this speech is so interesting but at the same time irrelevant. The art and the artists are two "and never the twain shall meet" as Kipling said.

[GamingandSocialfun]

Im glad that someone finally gets it. Finally seeing porn not as exploitation but as a necessary service. Also understanding the fact that men do have a struggle to get physical contact and honest loving relationship. Especially these days where people are encouraged to steal from one another. Instead of building a truly loving relationship. So in a lot of ways its hard to tell if the person your dating is dating for you or the money in your pocket.

Love this speech! Nina Hartley is amazing and so intelligent.
