Many women in porn deal with
sexual harassment and assault on a regular basis and don’t know if the
cruel and judgmental general public will believe them when they come
forward.
During
my first adult convention, chatting with fans and signing my name on
glossy 8 x 10’s, it never occurred to me that I’d be groped. It was a
public event, not a porn set. Yet more than a few eager fans tried to
sneak their fingers down my pants as if I wouldn’t notice or care. Some
girls just gave in to this rude behavior and let fans grope them,
reveling in the excitement it created. Others saw it as crossing a line.
That same fan attending Comic-Con would never try to pinch Scarlett
Johansson’s ass, no matter how many times he fantasized about her as
Black Widow. Just as actresses are not their characters, porn stars are
not the human-sized sex toys they portray.
