I was watching one of those "fake audition" porn clips, and yeah, I know - yuck on so many levels - but let's just focus on the porn. I am starting to dislike those clips because I have friends who are models - or maybe I should just say that I have friends who are women - and I know that the whole fantasy is a weird bait-and-switch where the woman comes in thinking that it's an ordinary modeling job and then she is made an offer for sex and she totally does it!
Criticizing porn for being creepy is like criticizing opera for being overblown. Or action movies for being cavalier about the effects of bullets.
Nope, what I am criticizing this particular clip for is the bogus business that the guy with the camera (it's also one of those POV ones) claims to be working on. It's an online calendar where guys go to the calendar and every day there is a new semi-naked woman greeting them.
So it's an online NSFW calendar for businessmen who want to mix their sexy model pictures and their planners.
Who the fuck would think that is a good idea? Seriously, even in the early days of the internet people had blackberries and palm pilots to look up their schedules. And even if they were looking on some online calendar, they know where the porn is. They don't have to get it with their calendar, especially not if they are looking at their calendars on their desktops or even laptops.
The rest of it is just yada yada porn bullshit, but "I'm interviewing you to be a model on an online calendar" just ruins my suspension of disbelief.
