Bambalina, what is your definition of white knightism?
I totally agree with your mention of sweat shops and slave labor and how corporations use slave labor to earn bigger profits off of other human beings.
I believe in equality of all human beings.
Not just for the women who are mistreated in the sex industry but for children who are sold off by their parents to merely survive in a country where poverty is commonplace. Where men and women migrate to other countries to earn a decent wage because in their homelands their governments are so corrupt and their government does anything to maintain its power to keep its citizens in a poverty stricken status quo.
Perhaps that is why there are so many women from Eastern Europe and other third world countries that need to work in the sex industry to survive. Unlike the great country of America where there still is some opportunity for many who work hard and are for the most part treated better than many others around the world who have the chance to live a productive and happy fulfilling life.
White Knightism in the world of camming has morphed into something obsessive for some members, due to what some women told them about their lives in their countries. Some of it is true and some of it is fabricated. It also is a term created by pirates towards members who have attempted to assist models with pirated material.
If you want to make this industry better and as you state, it is the "man" who keeps you down if I read you loud and clear,go for it. But when I had to listen to a woman tell me stories of how bad things are for them at the sake of earning a buck off of me or anyone else while others tell me things are not that bad as they portray things to be, then I have to wonder who is fooling whom.
Do I need to read other members who go out of their way to send loads of cash, gifts and pretend that they are a womans knight in shining armor, when all it really is in truth is a sham and/or scam, then I do believe something just aint kosher in the grand scheme of things.
Albeit, there are women who can barely survive in a cut throat world of camming and that genuinely and honestly they are very desperate to earn bank.
I used to have fun and enjoy myself way too much many years ago in the world of camming, but in due time as some recent members here have confessed that it becomes an illusion that does not fulfill or create any more enjoyment for them. Or perhaps it is the fact that quite a few have been rung out to dry and treated with such disdain and contempt that if it were reversed, you and many others would scream bloody murder. But of course, that is what is written,at times, on that other forum.
It's a two way street isn't it? It works both ways.
What I am annoyed with is when I have to read or hear anyone tell me that I am fodder, or anyone else who visits you and your colleagues. That we should all be treated as just a bunch of perverted wankers and primed for the taking, that there in itself is a huge hypocritical judgement of your bread and butter, you all make bank on. Have you honestly read some of what your colleagues say about people and members, and how they all are ripe for the taking? I am quite sure you have.
To read how you expect respect from those that enter your chat when basically most of the written word I read on that other forum,that many have such contempt and a holier than thou attitude towards most men. I truly wonder where that came from objectively. I can come pretty close to the reasons why though many think like that.
How do you expect anyone to return any respect when anyone who enters into a chat room is viewed as nothing more than just a dollar sign. I know this is a job and I am not blind as to what you gals have to deal with either. But fair play works both ways.
Personally, I have assisted fighting and helping women I do not even know with pirated material. This after many a time some of your counterparts have treated others and as I have experienced as well, an indignity and quite honestly a lack of respect as one human being towards another.
I suggest that you not only fight the pimps who control your industry but also instruct your colleagues to have some ethics and professionalism as well.
QUOTE for examples of people who are sick of the trashed out strip club motif, and want to bring something fun and exciting back. It even exists in erotica on the internet, from the "Simple Nudes" fans, to those who love the retro stuff, either in real form (as in old antique porn and vintage photos), or the Neo-Movement with it'e older style look and Pin-up sensibility, where women are treated more as Goddesses to be adored than sexual toys to be played with and discarded.
Well look around you, it is up to some of your colleagues to stop lowering the bar so much, if you don't want to be treated as sexual toys and discarded. The premise of camming is a study in objectification of both individuals,both the member and the chat host.
A chat host I was very intimate with,once said, to Uncle here....
"This place strips the humanity from all that enter it".
