>Hello, Clint. Thanks for joining the frey (I don't >expect "loserboi" to return after pushing him to >confront himself). >Yes, I now see the word "custom." And, yes, I did >avail myself of the pix captures and videocaps of the >shows. I agree that no other producer of its kind is >as generous as SKW. And, had I but known, I would and >should have emailed SK to ask about the nature of the >show prior to purchase. >But, if I were to ask SK, "are the women made to >struggle and squirm and show pain without ever trying >to relieve themselves of the source of that pain?" >what would his response be? >When I refer to torture, and I thought I made it clear >in my previous writings, I'm not necessarily thinking >of blood, ropes, being stretched on racks, etc. I >repeatedly used the term, "soft-core S&M." >We all know what a Sadist is: someone who enjoys >inflicting physical and/or emotional pain and/or >humiliation on others. A common device for this >enjoyment is torture. What is torture? Not even our >U.S. Attorney General can figure that out. But, as >the US Supreme Court said about pornography, "I know >it when I see it!" >A masochist is someone who enjoys receiving pain >and/or humiliation. Often masochists don't wait for >Sadists and will torture themselves. >Now let's look at "Apologies to Honey." Devon is >placed in hold after hold where she flails her limbs, >twists and turns and moans and grouns till exchaustion >(something that looks VERY good in still >photographs!!!) but almost never does anything to try >and free herself except occasionally brushing her hand >against Honey (in still photos, she appears to be >trying to push Honey off her). Perhaps the women were >told to not appear to be trying to free themselves, >just register pain and suffering. I know it's not >REAL torture in that no one is actually getting hurt >(Devon does give herself a good aerobic workout!). >But she is acting out a FANTASY OF TORTURE! So the >person who commissioned this custom show and SKW's >paying audience can enjoy Devon's, and later Honey's, >manufactured suffering and say, "Hey, it's not real, >there are no ropes or piercings or sexual violations, >so it's alright to enjoy this!" >Besides my personal view that this softcore S&M is the >oposite of sexy, I object to how these shows >desensitize people to human suffering. How often do >people see real life horrors on TV News and say, "I >saw all that already in the movies?" >Many years ago I worked in a wierd job where I was >forced to watch endless numbers of porn film. Each >one usually had a rape scene and, every time, after >the woman started out resisting the rape, she'd end up >enjoying it. What message does this convey to the >audience? >I appreciate that women in "Apologies to Honey" are >having a great time creating these shows. I just wish >they made it look like Devon was trying to fight back >the way Jessle did in "Invasion 4" or as the lowest >"jobber" does in most bigger budget wrestling shows. >I suggest people skim through Jesse Ventura's >autobiography where he explains how the wrestling >shows were made more "theatrical." No one was ever >intentionally hurt in them either but thay strove for >a level of intensity and vividness which involved some >discomfort. No show ever went beyond where jobber and >heel couldn't have a good laugh afterwards. >What still puzzles me is why people enjoy this, what I >and a jury of my peers would call, torture. Does it >come out of a hatred of women? Are women seen as a >lower class which must be repeatedly put in its place? >I await counsel's rebutal. >Sincerely, Philip Bennett
