Pornography, says the sage of MIT, is "disgraceful," "a humiliation and degradation of women." Does it matter, the interviewer wonders, that most porn performers "choose to do the job and get paid?" Chomsky offers this labored analogy in response: "The fact that women agreed to it and are paid is about as convincing as the fact that we should be in favor of sweatshops in China where woman are locked into the factory and work fifteen hours a day and then the factory burns down and they all die. They were paid and they consented, but it doesn't make me in favor of it." And for all of you porn consumers out there, Chomsky wants you to know that if you get "pleasure out of the humiliation of women [you] have a problem." So how do we improve the lot of porn performers? By banning "the degradation of woman" and "eliminating the conditions in which woman cannot get decent jobs; not permit abusive and destructive behavior."

working as waitress can be much more humiliating than working in porn. -

You know I loathed this guy in university, in my 3rd year English class he kept popping up and now I see just because we studied him doesn't make him brilliant... he is even more of an idiot than I originally suspected.

Those who work in sweatshops do not have the choice to work anywhere else... How the fuck does that compare to the majority of porn actresses? lol While you have some porn that do humiliate women... id say most is just straight fucking.. and if fucking on camera is degrading, then he should talk about how much of a victim the porn actor is too... lolComment

he has some brilliant thoughts on a lot of subjects but this is definitely not one of them. What he should have said instead was "I do not know anything about the subject so I can not make a comment on it that would have any value." but when you are thought of as a genius for too long you end up thinking you know better than everyone else on everything i guess...webmaster at pimproll dot comComment

Most of them? give me a fucking break... What sites are you joining? Dirty Danza sites? While there is certainly girls that do drugs in an excessive manner, this is for the most part a lifestyle that they chose... Not all have been raped... Plenty of webmasters here do drugs in an excessive manner.. we know some names... some very succesful.. Are they victims? No... People need to take responsibilities for their decisions and actions... Sweatshop workers in China dont have any decision to make.. Its do or dieLast edited by xxxdesign-net; 07-25-2008, 08:13 AM.Comment

He's not absolutely wrong though, there's still enough truth to what he's saying. Porn is one of the few career options that can attract those who are self-destructive and assist them in further destroying their lives.- Free Premium Domain Lists and Tools at Clickmojo.com

the parallel is ofcourse that self-destructive or people with deep unresolved issues can also destroy their lives further with things we take for granted such as those I mentioned... Things that Id think Chomsky doesnt find immoral or unacceptable ..Comment

ha!
thats kinda funny... if you take personal accountability out of the decision making process... and consider that the list can certainly get long as to what is "degrading" and "humiliating" you could then use the same logic to insist that everyone who participates or benefits directly or indirectly has "a problem" which is basically everyone.Comment

Ugh. Being anti-porn and anti-sex work is like a cult that renders even the brilliant totally fucking retarded. Not much can be more humiliating & degrading to me as a woman than some smart ass pseudo-liberal pseudo-feminist telling me I'm too fucking dumb to know what I want to do or when I'm being humiliated & degraded.
He makes it sound like I and women like me are just stupid animals who need real humans like him to do the thinking for us. It cracks me up that he can go around championing free speech when it comes to freaks who claim the holocaust never happened, but women's speech and their choices should be suppressed and limited.

The mainstream movie business has never chewed up and spit out any actors either. Nor has the mainstream music business created a bunch of washed up, drug addicted former stars.
The entertainment business is tough and exploitative no matter what facet you happen to be involved in.Last edited by mynameisjim; 07-25-2008, 02:35 PM.jim (at) amateursconvert . com Amateurs ConvertComment

Chomsky uses his left-wing bias to interpret history nowadays, which is fine.
Hi wor in linguistics prior to becoming this media darling was more impressive.
This "opinion" he might have on us is ludicrous... what, is he running for office now or something?

Wait one second !
Sexuality is just a part of humanity and for Noam Chomsky to make remarks that he has on the subject of ladies making their sexuality public, as being degrading; only shows his personal level of comfort on the subject. His logic seems to show a contempt for those who express themselves publicly in regards to their sexual acts. If people over 18 wish to make their lives public then why the attitude to degrade their choice of life style... Its Noam Chomsky who is putting down others in this instance...sig too bigComment

A little follow-up quote here with Howard Zinn of all people also being an idiot about sex work (with commentary from Audacia Ray):

So so true Tony.... you know, to be COMPLETELY honest with you, I think often it's more degrading to be the one PAYING for porn than the one being spotlighted in porn. This isn't 1970... women aren't in the same unbalanced reality that they were in 20 or 30 years ago. It's not like it's a choice between porn and starvation, as it is with the people who work in sweat shops. This quote proves that people can be smart and capable in some areas, and TOTALLY CLUELESS in others.
Some advice to Noam... no matter how much you claim to advocate for women, you're STILL not going to get laid when you look like this:
But maybe your mom will be proud.Comment

My thoughs on Noam Chomsky
Just how many of you have actually listened to Noam Chomsky?
He is not dumb by any means, however, he is not neutral on many of his stances even though he claims it... He points out many correlations and states them as direct relationships in his efforts to ground much of his ideas. He is both well spoken and educated, however, if you listen to him and look at his reasoning of much of what he says you see certain patterns... Its easy to convince others if you have a solid background in an area, but that does not mean the arguments being made have any grounding in reality.sig too bigComment
