    Carrot cake is the king of standard cakes. But to preach such vitriol against coffee cake should be a charter breach.

    I'll stand by my opinion!!!!! ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜

    Discrimination in the workplace and all that nonsense.

    Nonsense is right in this post.

    If her reasoning for not consenting is based on any of the terms covered by the discriminatory in the workplace laws in her country? Yes.

    Nope, her phobia (if that word is even appropriate, I have strong doubts as to which definition of phobia you are working under) was towards the gay porn industry, not homosexuals or homosexuality.

    Also it is worth remembering that not all porn actors who do gay porn are, themselves, homosexual.

    Totally agree. It just shows how scary the internet mob can be.

    Remember when the Rosetta spacecraft landed on that comet? The head of the project appeared on camera wearing a shirt that had half-naked women on it. He received so much backlash that he had to give a press conference apologising for wearing the shirt.

    What should have been the happiest day of his life -- the culmination of nearly a decade of effort -- and he was reduced to tears because of the exact same kind of crowd mentality that this lady faced.

    And it turned out that the shirt was made by his best friend -- a woman -- and he was wearing it because of how much he loved it and to give her work an international audience.

    This kind of SJW crowd mentality is an absolute pox.

    I've read some of the tweets directed at her. Some of them are truly vile.

    What's most disturbing though is they seem completely incapable of grasping the irony of abusing her for refusing to have sex with someone she wasn't comfortable with.

    I am not a twitter user or reader myself, but I am more and more getting the impression that vile tweets are alas par for the course. My news feed had an article citing some of the tweets that were truly vile directed at a women who appeared on a break fast show this week.

    The crime this woman committed? She invites a large quantity of family to her house for dinner every Christmas, and due to the costs of feeding that many people a quality and memorable meal..... she asks them to pay some money towards it.

    The vileness of the tweets directed at her does not seem to scale with this "crime" very much. I somewhat feel noticing the vileness of tweets on ANY topic (let alone this one) is about as useful as noting that water is wet these days.

    This thread title is such BS.

    "SJW campaign leads to porn star suicide"

    We have no idea if this is the case. No newspaper would dare run with a headline like this.

    The linked article in the OP had a headline which is fact

    "August Ames dead: 23-year-old adult entertainment actor's body found after homophobia row".

    A fairer thread title would be ""SJW campaign may have contributed to porn star suicide"

    Users see these thread titles bubbling up in latest posts and it somehow becomes truth. Very misleading.

    Choosing to not have sex with a particular individual on the basis of personal preference isn't discrimination, ffs.

    People are entitled to put more value in their health and safety over their work?



    Noone can force you to do anything in work (no matter what it is),if you don't want too

    Her job is to **** people. She's more than likely ****ed tons of guys who haven't been tested, but didn't object to it because they were straight.

    Also, what is with people and too on here? It's like you've all forgot about grammar in your moment of incandescent rage.

    The porn industry agrees with you, which is why they have an entire concept of a "no" list— that wouldn't fly in most other industries, but we are talking about having sex here. Nobody should have to have sex with someone they don't want to have sex with, no matter what their reasons. It is their body, and therefor their choice.

    I always wondered when the obsession with inclusivity at the expense of all other rights would end with people claiming others had no right to discriminate about who they had sex with. I guess that time has come.

    Ironically this thread is to try encourage bullying of people considered SJWs

    Well, as has been mentioned, regular testing for STIs is pretty much mandatory for straight pornography. What I didn't realise, but has been mentioned here, is that in gay pornography the testing isn't as stringent (surely I hope it's not the case). If true, it would be understandable that she did not want to take the risk.

    Also having to rely on pointing out grammatical errors shows that you're using it as a fallback as you don't fully believe in your own opinion.

    .

    Article says testing is widespread in straight porn...but not in gay??. ...this seems to be the issue here


    She is unwilling to risk her health for her job.... I don't see any issue here tbh??

    She said she not do it (as is anyones right in any work),her employer got someone else to do the job (as is there right)......


    She tipped off someone and advised againest the health risk. ....seriously wtf is the problem.here?

    So she has to just grin and bear it and fcuk whoever walks in the door no questions asked? Just because she was a porn star doesn't mean her right to consent is eroded and invalidated.
    Your perspective is grim.

    The guy was shooting straight porn - by your logic, and by the regulations of straight porn he would have had to have been tested. The rest of your argument is biased crap

    I'm sure she signed some contract to **** said guy. Then broke contract for the sole reason that she found out the guy ****ed another guy once. That sounds a little homophobic to me.

    Worst analogy ever.

    If you are asked to do something you dont want to do, you can refuse to do it and take your chances with disciplinary process, or leave.

    Look at her as a contractor.
    She chose not to undertake certain work/work with certain clients.

    Many things do to you. However as I said her issue seemed to be with the gay porn industry, not gay people or gay sex. AGAIN it pays to remember that peoples who have gay sex in porn are not always themselves gay.

    We gonna argue artistic freedom? Cool. I'll accept that. It's still homophobic artistic freedom.

    Do you have any proof that this is the case, or are you just pulling shlt out of got arse?

    She's entitled to have sex with whoever she wants, based on whatever reasons she desires.

    There's a whiff of the notion that she should be forced into sex with people so as to not offend them from your posts.
    Grim.

    Stringent testing after a high risk encounter that may have resulted in him contracting hiv, which when tested so soon after exposure may not be detected.
