He is a pornographer. That goes without saying.

hi, i’m a feminist queer adult star and content creator aka “pornographer”. i’m an amazing person with and amazing life, and i’m just someone’s neighbor. just a regular person doing what i enjoy and making a living. not exploiting or taking advantage of anyone else as almost all the content i make with other people is done as trade. my community is the same. most “pornographers” are women these days just doing what we enjoy, things have changed immensely not just in the past 40 years but in the past 10 years. time for an update.

[-]

GirlFriday3823@reddit

This thread is about the Girls Gone Wild series and its pornographer, who was jailed and apparently never showed remorse despite ruining the lives of many young girls and women from that era.

Do you have an opinion on that?

[-]

RealSinnSage@reddit

of course! this guy was filming women who were under the influence, often underage, without their consent!!!! and among millions and millions of dollars off them! these girls never saw a single penny of that money. that is a CRIME and a perfect example of what ACTUAL exploitation is. the work i do and my colleagues for more than 20 years involves ID age documentation, sobriety, consent and constant consent checks, model releases and more ID documentation. it’s jus so harmful to conflate consensual adult entertainment production with violations of law and consent, and it’s unfortunate that these bad actors become a de facto representation for an entire legal industry that a majority of us actually enjoy being a part of

abbydabbydo@reddit

Thanks for responding to them. That wide net they cast was pretty offensive. I’ve known a fair amount of porn producers/talent and others in adjacent ventures and they’re all pretty decent people. A lot I know from bartending, and they’re still decent even when they’re massively drunk. Sex work does not equal perversion!

Different_Ease_7539@reddit

I look back now, at the things we were sort of taught were, if not 'normal' - then.... aspirational? Like, we always felt we should be more carefree and wild, that we were less than girls who were.

And now I think maybe all of it was just coercion? As a cohort, Xennial women would have drunk more than any other generation of women. And that comes with consequences.

[-]

Smurfblossom@reddit (OP)

I don't know if we were taught these things were aspirational or if it was that we were taught we should have the freedom to do these things without consequence if we want. The latter was definitely a lie. I mean I get the viewpoint that women shouldn't be slut-shamed for flashing or whatever but that doesn't mean that other consequences aren't possible as we clearly learned with GGW and many other things.

[-]

GirlFriday3823@reddit

It dated all the way back to the whole sexual revolution of the ‘60s.

Had to learn the hard way that society, NOT fashion, dictated what I could wear without consequence. I can remember a time when dressy blouses you’d wear to the office were slightly sheer — light-colored, long-sleeved, high-necked, so otherwise conservative, and you’d paired them with long skirts below the knee — there was zero cleavage, and the most you could see was a very cloudy, translucent outline of your bra (the bra was not see-through). I was so infuriated when guys would remark on how sexy it was, the innuendo, the brazen staring at your chest, and some of them practically drooling. I was like: Really? After all the uber-miniskirts and bra-lessness of the ‘60s, and the cleavage in other earlier time periods, THIS is what you call sexy? And arguing with them that I should be able to wear the current style without having to endure their remarks or stares. But I learned that, no matter the style, no matter how office attire is portrayed in pop culture, people would shame you if you didn’t practically wear a gunny sack.

[-]

EmisTheGremis@reddit

I went to Mardi Gras 2000 and they were there. I thought it would be fun to flash some tits and get some beads. Their people just had their arms out with beads from wrist to shoulder and a film cameras in the other hand. It was legit gross transactional. I’m so glad I didn’t do it when they offered. I’m not glad I flashed in general because the second my shirt went up I was swarmed by hoards of dudes groping me from all angles and had hands in my pussy I physically couldn’t remove. It was a scary moment for a 23yr old. I wound up in some back alley bar drinking with some random businessmen who also were grossed out by the whole thing. I swore I’d never go back.

So sorry that happened to you.

I haven't seen it but Joe Francis has been living sketchy for a while now. If he needs to abandon Mexico, he has his own island. Or at least he did. I remember towards the end of GGW (I only know this because they used to run the commercials on the Howard Stern show on the E channel every episode) they were doing a GGW at the GGW island. If you think about it, he could avoid all laws for anything that happened on his own private island.

Franics was also involved in a blackmail/robbery situation that Paris Hilton got drug into. A couple of guys followed Francis home and strong armed him in his own home. They had a gun to his head and video taped him inserting a dildo into himself while saying: "I'm Joe Francis and this is Boys Gone Wild". They robbed him and kept the tape to use against him if he ever went to the cops to report being robbed. Months later Paris Hilton was hanging out with some people who were showing the tape to friends and told Joe Francis about it. He told the police and, and Paris got called in for questioning and pulled the "dumb blonde" routine, saying that she didn't know anything.

As far as underage girls. IDK. I haven't seen the show, and I've never seen a GGW video. From what I understand those guys were on a bus going across the country to the party colleges and picking up drunk women at bars. The clips that I've seen on the internet were always drunk women making out with their friends. He may not have been following the strict porn legal requirement of showing ID. But he was picking up women who were drunk at bars and clubs. So basically the door men at the venue was already handling that. He's still sketchy for doing that. These women were drunk and he was trying to manipulate them into being un-paid porn performers.

I've had a few brief experiences with people in the entertainment industry. It's bad. 90 percent of the men, and even some of the women, are predators. I am not a famous musician, because I wouldn't sign off and letting the president of a record company fuck my GF. I've got a few stories, but I don't want to drag people through the mud. Just keep in mind that Joe Francis, and Harvey Weinstein are the tip of the ice berg, and are only doing things that nearly everyone in the business does.

[-]

GirlFriday3823@reddit

Seems like I read (this was years ago) that they would take that GGW “recruiting” bus to college campuses and stage actual events, trying to give it a “cool” factor.

So, if true, think of the demographics: college girls and women, some who could’ve been as young as 17, and most no older than 21 or 22. We now know that our prefrontal cortex — the part of the brain that handles decision-making, judgment calls, and that sort of thing — isn’t fully developed till about age 26.

And no one who is drunk can truly give consent, regardless of age and regardless of whether you’re in charge of your own drinking or someone else is plying you with alcohol.

[-]

FightersNeverQuit@reddit

I am not a famous musician, because I wouldn't sign off and letting the president of a record company fuck my GF. I've got a few stories

I’m going through this thread now and read this. How exactly did this go? Just straight up told you and asked you, “here’s the deal you let me do this and I’ll give you a career”? I’ve heard this experience often from people in the entertainment industry, seems very common. Other than answering my above question, is there any other similar quick story you could share?

Respect to you btw for not “selling your soul” so to speak. I know many men would’ve done it, you’re clearly a decent man.

Jd11347@reddit

His friend came to my apartment. My GF knew them both. His friend heard me playing guitar and invited us both to the studio and wanted me to bring my guitar and play for them. I played, they started talking about what they wanted to use my music for and hooking me up with a band and recording. They rven tried to get me to start recording that day with no offers on the table. Then they switched to my girl. Had her taking pictures as they were dangling a modeling career in front of her. The guy has his hands all over her. He was making comments about how he doesn't care if this is my girl. A few days later he wanted us to come over to his house for the weekend. I knew what he was wanting to do because of all the comments that he was making while they were taking pics together. So I just declined and never heard from him again.

[-]

FightersNeverQuit@reddit

Man that is so fucking sleazy. As an MMA fighter I probably wouldn’t be able to take that disrespect without slapping him right then and there. I wish your gf told him to F off when he was all over her. It’s crazy how many people they probably have done this too, ruined relationships and probably didn’t even help with their promises.

I don't have a hard time believinh that about entertainment people. It's def something in the culture - there are stories that crop up and hushed over going all the way back to the very begining of Hollywood. It's no surprise when people in the industry excuse Woody Allen and Roman Polanski. Everyone in the industry seems complicit, by either engaging or turning a blind eye, and they all victim blame. Glad you didn't let them swallow you up - you really do have to sell your soul for a piece of their pie.

NotMarshalFestus@reddit

"Show us where babies feed" was one of the most wild lines ever. I'm 47(m) and a couple of coworkers around my age, and I were talking about GGW the other day. It truly is the epitome of late 90s ,early 00s, say what you want, DGAF, live your own life, "We're all here to have fun", bacchanalia. It's because of how bad it was back then that we, as a society, learned to dial it way the fuck back. 90-00s kids raised on 80s nerd heroic rape culture.

[-]

maybe-an-ai@reddit

90-00s kids raised on 80s nerd heroic rape culture.

This is such a great way to put it. I always try explaining to my young friend how prevent sanitized stalking, rape, and sex with teenagers. Music, movies, pop culture... It was shocking to me when people were all of a sudden surprised how prevelant it was. It was literally everywhere

[-]

GirlFriday3823@reddit

Most of your examples aren’t from The Aughts. IIRC:

Jerry Lee Lewis — 1950s, or earlier

Roman Polanski — ‘60s or ‘70s

Steven Tyler — ‘70s

Jerry Seinfeld and Woody Allen — ‘90s.

Writefrommyheart@reddit

I also remember all the weird and absolutely gross talk shows that would shame teenaged girls for dressing like sluts and doing things like having sex for a cheeseburger, but no one said anything about the adults who were SA the teen girls. No, the focus was on sending them to boot camp and scaring them straight.

It's insane that not only was allowed this allowed on TV, but was popular.

Oh just stop it. You think things are better now? Men are literally afraid to hit on women and the nightclubs now almost all women because men want nothing to do with nightclubs.

This was never a rape culture, which FYI was a term created for men's prisons, the feminists keep miss using. Rape was a crime in the 80s, the 90s, and beyond. Used to be a death penalty offense back in older days even before that was seen as excessive.

Truth. People, especially those who weren’t in their 20s then, don’t realise what that time was like. Just take the boom of lad magazines, pick up artists, and breasturaunts as an example. You had Hooters air at one point. This is when cage fighting was popularised and I’d say the peak of drinking culture. 95-2010 was the frat era of American life.

I had a vhs copy of one that my crazy uncle gave me, one of the first ones iirc.

My uncle found it in the trash. my uncle was legit crazy as in paranoid schizophrenic who heard voices, was an extreme hoarder, and raced ahead of garbage trucks in barely working junk vehicles usung stolen plates, just to get "good stuff" to add to his hoard before the "evil bastards" garbage men got it. I was 16 or 17 at the time

[-]

Dramatic_View_5340@reddit

Can we stop calling mentally ill people crazy? They are not crazy, most have been abused and neglected by their caregivers and that’s why they have developed these mental illnesses. Most likely your uncle grew up poor or was withheld things and that’s why he likes to have his things. Instead of talking poorly about him online, maybe ask questions about who he was and when he became that way because there’s also the genetic material that could cause your children to also become “crazy”.

elonmusktheturd22@reddit

He worked in Greenland in the cold war, communications technician (like citizen z on z nation) watching james bond movies and reading the books in his free time. High stress job and he snapped and got sent back to the states. Once there he insisted he was James bond and "the general" was conspiring against him. The quack stuff he said sounded like the stuff q said (q-annon conspiracies, i am 100% sure he is q). He insisted my sister was born a boy but give a sex change as part of a government conspiracy in the day she was born, that the general organized it. Then he decided my aunt (his sister) was plotting with the general to steal his garbage (every time the town cleaned out the 60 tons of garbage he piled in the yard in the nyc suburb house he was squatting in) then tried to put a bomb in her car to kill her when she started the ignition. He was caught in the process and sent to a padded room for a year.

When i was 15 my parents dumped me off at his trash pile in the summer expecting me to clean it up so he wouldn't get fined again by the next cleanup (one of ny states top 10 urban blight offenders in the 90s according to the supreme court). While there he taught me to make explosives and modify guns to full auto, then how to drive and had me deliver bombs to a guy using one of his junk cars with stolen plates.

Later of while i was at college someone broke into a camp in the Adirondacks that my uncle kept a bunch of stuff at but hadn't actually visited in years. He decided it was an inside job/conspiracy by my aunt and the general, and not the 3 guys who broke into a dozen other camps that week and were caught by the police. My uncle denied his stuff was his since it was very illegal. He kept trying to get me to tell the police it was my aunt and the general , then when i refused to give a false statement to police he decided i was in on it and started sending me constant death threats. This was around the time of the dc anthrax in the mail thing and my uncle would mail me envelopes full of powdered sugar, or call me saying he was going to plant a bomb in my truck, or that he was going to sneak up behind me and cut my throat fir a second smile. I kept changing my contact info but my parents kept giving him my new info because they thought it was funny. Whole family is all kinds of fucked up. Anyway i refused to have anything to do with him after that shit and not long after i cut contact with everyone else.

My uncle was legitimately crazy

[-]

IIRC, the TL;DR is that he was both being pretty lax with verifying ages which ended up with him filming several underage girls and he was just overall a creep who was always attempting to convince women to do more than they were comfortable with.

[-]

peachy418@reddit

This and basically pouring alcohol down their throats until they are too drunk to not consent and would basically kidnap teenagers and young women and force them to participate.

It’s actually really bad and these girls and young women were constantly in fear of being highlighted in the commercials where their parents and community could see. I remember seeing the commercials all the time all over TV, I can’t imagine that anxiety of seeing yourself doing something you didn’t have the power to get out of.

Sometimes they didn’t even let people know what was going on and they just targeted large groups of drunk kids and start filming.

My dad owned a video store when these first came out. Of course it had the restricted adults only room behind a curtain 😂. He refused to get the girls gone wild series ever.

Not really. The Kardashians are not good people.

I was told. By someone very on the inside reliable, that when Joe Francis was in jail in Florida, that he called his attorney crying because he had no clean underwear. And when the attorney went to Walmart and brought him new underwear, he started crying again because it wasn’t the brand he wanted.

This may or may not have been a breach of the attorney-client communication when I was told this. So I’m just going to say it definitely was NOT told to me by his attorney in 2007.

When he is not able to sexually abuse women, Joe Francis is a little bitch who needs his special panties.

Underwear are not legal advice. AC privilege irrelevant.

I was a young teenage girl when these videos became popular and I would see the ads on late night tv with the girls lifting up their shirts and stuff and at the time nobody (my age, at least) thought the people filming this were creeps. If any fingers were ever pointed it was always on the (usually drunk…hmm who provided the alcohol?) young girls who were doing the acts. It was just ingrained in our society to blame the women no matter what. It’s the whole “you were raped? What were you wearing?” culture. We were raised on Jerry Springer and American Pie.

Same. It was horrifying to see as a girl that age at that time - people referencing it all the time, the commercials on late night, it was so in the cultural zeitgeist and it was just. so. gross.

We were raised on boys being boys and brazen toxic masculinity being totally normal and ubiquitous. Something us girls just had to get over time and time again.

I remember hearing guys who are into guys talk about Guys Gone Wild and while the overall chatter was still gross, the inclusivity was nice.

The majority of the people who are willing to pay money to see naked men are gay dudes.

I had to check into this. Apparently it is possibly a rendering glitch in Reddit. But there is also a character that is also a dotless i also. Thıs ıs a dotless ı flex.
