Melvyn Senior Member 2797 Posts 12/12	Posted - Jan 4 2017 : 11:59PM Well, to the previous point about history being on women's side, it may not only be true that, as others here have interpreted that to mean, the accusations are almost never proven false, but also that women are almost always believed. Let's set aside stories of famed people none of us personally know, and consider that with rape being purportedly as common as it is, according to the currently cited statistics by activists (which I've seen fluctuate and vary by definition from 1 in 4 women are raped, to 1 in 4 are sexually assaulted, not necessarily raped, to 1 in 5 are sexually assaulted, not raped, to about 1 in 50 are raped), even if it was only half or a quarter as common in actuality as the lowest estimated rate, it always goes without saying it's still too common, whether it is 1 in 10 or 1 in 100. It remains a fact that most of us probably know at least one woman who has been sexually assaulted, if not raped. The pressing question of doubt coming from skeptics is strange to me, because just speaking from my own experience and thinking of the all the females I've known, including friends and family, I cannot imagine doubting any of them if they claimed they were sexually assaulted, let alone raped. It is hard for me to imagine what world or what sort of circles one lives in in which more often than not feel they have reasonable doubt about said claims. One thing we do know is the instances of rape must be more common than false accusations being made public. Reports in total, whether true or false, are already so very rare, we have to keep track of them in "per 1,000" statistics. So the false claims must be incredibly rarer still, probably per 100,000. I guess what I am asking is, how many of you actually know of women personally who you would sooner doubt if they should claim being sexually assaulted, rather than believe? And how could it be that those women you doubt would outnumber those you believe? It just seems incredible to me. If I think of all the women I know, I would be inclined to believe them all, or at least I would have to presume they are telling the truth until proven otherwise. Yes, false claims do happen, and in national population of over 330 million, statistically they probably happen every day. But they are roughly outnumbered by actual attacks roughly 100:1. TL;DR I just want to know how many of you honestly feel in your experience you know women you'd sooner doubt than believe, and just how common this could be. Think about the women in your family and extended family. Wouldn't you sooner believe them? So wouldn't it follow that for the vast majority of women who do claim they've been assaulted or raped, that most of the people who know them would naturally take them at their word? Unless it happens that most women who claim being assaulted have no living family members, I would have to assume most are believed or trusted, rather than not.

CrissStrokesLexRoccoNorth Member 565 Posts 2/14	Posted - Jan 5 2017 : 7:10AM I think automatically you tend to side with Nikki on this case is because of her history with Brazzers, it was obviously a great relationship for the past decade. There were no problems until this issue. I'm just shocked to hear that there was obvious lack of communication before the actual scene. It just appears to me that Brazzers is trying to alter their product to generate more revenue and the result is that you have new people and talent coming in that a lot of the big name stars are not familiar or comfortable with, [Link]

Mister Fahrenheit All-Star Member Meh 4655 Posts 10/13	Posted - Jan 12 2017 : 3:05PM ^ As I recall, him choking the girl from behind the camera was one of his schticks in the old scenes he directed. I recall one with Roxy Jezel where he was just directing where he did that. So if it was supposed to be part of the scene I don't see why that would be a fireable offense. Edit: Remembered the name of the movie it was Sore Throat. If you read the linked review you'll see that there are several instances of Tony T. choking female performers from behind the camera.

I imagine she could say stop but it wouldn't be heard very well if she's being choked. And, do they really mean Tony T did the choking? Or did they mean Ramon? Was Tony part of this scene or not?

Quite often these rough type of scenes are actually aiming for a kind of disoriented, overwhelmed look on the part of the female performers. For example, I remember quite a few scenes back in the day where Roxy Jezel was "choked" and briefly "passed out" during the scene. Whether those instances were genuine or not is anybody's guess of course. But it does show that a perceived level of discombobulation might not be out of place or undesired in these type of scenes.

misspornUSA Senior Member I ♥ the male gaze (and Palestine). 8737 Posts 11/13	Posted - Jan 12 2017 : 9:30PM ^Samantha Bentley has a scene called "Game of Holes." Rough scene and it did the suit the scene for her to appear overwhelmed, but a little less than half way into the scene she seemed to be really out of it and in response both the male talent and the director stopped to ask her if she was okay. Even though she smiled and gave the camera a thumbs up they cut anyway before proceeding. I love really rough scenes but the director and male talent need to be on the ball. [Link]
Mister Fahrenheit All-Star Member Meh 4655 Posts 10/13	Posted - Jan 12 2017 : 9:36PM ^ Absolutely, merely pointing out that the term "disoriented" in this context might not be as damning as it first appears. Then again, it could very well be. [Link]

Mister Fahrenheit All-Star Member Meh 4655 Posts 10/13	Posted - Jan 13 2017 : 3:43AM ^^ That's definitely a valid point of view. I guess my question is, once we step in and start banning practices we personally find to be "fucked up and dangerous" where do we draw the line? The high-velocity style of anal sex that is commonplace in mainstream porn carries an inherent risk of rectal injuries. Ass-to-mouth carries the risk of contracting an infection. And of course the biggie is all the unprotected sex performers are having. Although the testing regime is in place, performers are still putting themselves at risk. And that's only when limiting ourselves to acts that are physically dangerous. If we broaden the scope to include "fucked up" a whole range of scenarios that are commonplace in porn might be on the chopping block. Porn caters to human fantasies and our fantasies aren't always pretty. Rather than micro-managing which acts and scenarios should be allowed or disallowed, I think making sure the autonomy of porn performers is respected should be our main concern. So long as the principle of informed consent is respected, why not allow performers to make use of their own judgement about what types of risks they're willing to take?

Melvyn Senior Member 2797 Posts 12/12	Posted - Jan 13 2017 : 5:03AM Tookie and Lafage, the problem is just because you may not be into it, doesn't mean there aren't many who very much are. I would wager there are hundreds of thousands if not millions of women who are into choking during sex. Evidently Nikki Benz isn't one of them, and she found out the hard way she's not into it. But whose fault is that? Was she not briefed on what the scene would entail? What about safe words? There was mention earlier that they cut repeatedly. None of us are qualified to speak on the evidence cuz none of us have seen it, but even if we did get to see it, we still have to wonder what was omitted. This doesn't mean those guys should be fired unless it can be proven that they deliberately misled her. It seems like it could still go either way. Maybe if more people started speaking up, the way they all came out of the woodwork to take down Deen after Stoya's bombshell tweet, Nikki's case could be stronger. But IDK. Has she done rough scenes with choking before with no issue? It seems like she didn't know what she was getting into. If these guys really are bad men, it shouldn't be hard mounting a case against them with testimony from other female performers who, with the clout Nikki lends, should not be afraid to speak out. I've been mainly reserving judgement as best I can waiting for all the info to come out, although probably favoring Nikki's side more than those guys, however now with Tony counter-suing, and with talk about "disoriented" rather than straight up abused, who knows if she experienced black out symptoms or shock causing her to mis-remember? Maybe she was really in a daze, and yes this does speak to the dangers of that kind of behavior. I don't personally condone it so much as tolerate others who are into it, such that they can regulate themselves with consent. But I could certainly agree it is dangerous, especially with less the less experienced being subjected to hardcore repeated choking. But you don't throw the book at those guys if what you really want to do is prohibit choking altogether. Edited by - melvyn on 1/13/2017 5:13:09 AM [Link]

misspornUSA Senior Member I ♥ the male gaze (and Palestine). 8737 Posts 11/13	Posted - Jan 13 2017 : 9:45AM ^^^Agreed. Gonzo era is long over and what Roxy was doing isn't really commonplace anymore.

misspornUSA Senior Member I ♥ the male gaze (and Palestine). 8737 Posts 11/13	Posted - Jan 13 2017 : 10:16AM ^^^She could have thought it would merely be faux-rough. I regularly see "rough" scenes which are not actually rough but are aimed at giving naïve viewers the impression that rough sex actually took place. Perhaps that's what Nikki expected. That, or perhaps a shoot that leaned pseudo-rough. [Link]
Goldstein All-Star Member "You have sacrificed nothing and no one." 3689 Posts 8/10	Posted - Jan 13 2017 : 11:14AM We regularly watch people get the shit beaten out of them -- in mainstream non-porn movies and television -- and don't for a minute believe that they're really being beaten, choked, hurt, stabbed, shot, killed, etc. Not for one fucking minute! Why is/should be porn be any different? In porn it's "OK" to choke an actress until she passes out because some piece-of-shit "fan(s)" get off on it? If we can fake a cumshot, we can fake the misogynistic violence that the real sickos in our little community seem to need to get themselves off I don't know of a single porn actress that couldn't act like she was being choked and/or passing out. (Hey, the girls act like they orgasm all the time.) [Link]
Mister Fahrenheit All-Star Member Meh 4655 Posts 10/13	Posted - Jan 13 2017 : 12:20PM Seems like some members are shifting the goalposts now. At first, when Nikki alleged that Tony T. and company didn't stop when she said cut and that she wasn't briefed on the nature of the scene, the issue was lack of consent and a violation of professional values. Now that there is potentially credible evidence in play that Tony T. and company did stop when asked and that Nikki may have consented, the discussion is shifting to, "Why are these types of scenes even allowed at all?" Like I said, that's a valid question but it's getting a bit removed from the central issue that was originally raised: Whether Nikki Benz was raped on set. [Link]
Gore Gore Girl Doctor of the Erotic Arts 7238 Posts 1/09	Posted - Jan 13 2017 : 12:48PM Regarding rough scenes, checking in, performance, etc. I don't understand why directors and performers don't routinely demonstrate consent, negotiation, and communication. It would be so easy to leave those parts in or to emphasize them a little (body language that's detectable by a seasoned pro may go unnoticed by your average civilian porn viewer) and wouldn't damage the fantasy in gonzo because there's no illusion or narrative to violate. In fact, I think it would be hot. [Link]
Mister Fahrenheit All-Star Member Meh 4655 Posts 10/13	Posted - Jan 13 2017 : 12:56PM ^ Sounds good to me. Good insurance for the company and would put a lot of consumers minds at ease. Some consumers might now want to see it, but viewers fast-forwarding through things they're not interested in is pretty common with porn. No reason that part would be any different. [Link]
misspornUSA Senior Member I ♥ the male gaze (and Palestine). 8737 Posts 11/13	Posted - Jan 13 2017 : 1:07PM ^^The expression of affirmative consent throughout a scene is fine for me, but I'd rather not see the performers negotiating during the scene. [Link]

For me, the fantasy of these scenes is to be taken by your sex partner, basically "used", while the kind of negotiation you describe is normal real life for me. I'd be fine with negotiation appearing in the BTS though, and of course it should happen beforehand too. [Link]

She has stated that a performer named Tony (who?) stomped on her head and choked her multiple times, during which it seems she said "no." As to "shifting the goalposts," as the discussion has evolved, many posters have introduced additional speculation and opinions beyond the original post. Some of us, like me, respond to these as well. But, really, the only "goalpost" at play here is, was Nikki Benz abused on set and treated inappropriately?
