OK, let's say, in my hardbodied youth, I send Allentown Jake a masturbation tape
I'm going out with him, we've got a good thing going, and I send him a tape to keep him busy at night when I'm away on business.

Now, fast forward 10 years. I am, lets say, a college professor who speaks out against the censorship of a fellow professor. I get on TV and Jake, who is down on his luck, decides to sell the tape I sent him years ago for money. Suddenly, I am no longer a principled professor speaking out on censorship but a "whore" a "c--t," a prostitute, a bitch. And Jake can pay his rent.

Who is to blame for that?

7. I am saying that the Carrie Prejean situation brought up an important issue
Whatever you think of Prejean--and I find her stances absolutely appalling--I do not understand why a sex tape made for a boyfriend suddenly makes you a target for left wingers' misogyny.

63. Lapses in judgment always have a price.
Why would it not? The question of "should" is not involved. The fact that it "does" is what is relevant. No body ever said life was fair.

And as far as Ms faketitties is concerned, she earned the scorn far earlier than this tape.She is merely reaping what she has sown.

Edited on Tue Nov-10-09 07:32 PM by tblue37
appalled at the incredible stupidity of young pople who do not realize that anything on tape or in pictures is there forever, able to be used against them.

Why do they have to be such narcissists? I think maybe bcause they have been on film since birth--many being filmed even as they are being born. They go through life thinking of events not as experiences, but as photo ops. It's your birthday: hold still for a picture. Look like you're having fun so I can get a video of it! Say something clever for the videocam.

Think of all the young people who lose job opportunities because their prospective employers have googled them and found them on Facebook acting like drunken thugs. No one seems to realize these days that inappropriate behavior, if caught on film, can always come back to bite you in the ass--especially if someone has video of your ass getting bitten.

131. because she's a hypocrite
who portrays herself as a puritanical child of god, yet had a boob job, poses in bikinis and made a sex tape.

the vitriol would be there if it was Harry Prejean portraying himself as a puritanical child of god, yet had a penis job, worked at Chippendale's and made a sex tape.

I'd start with Foxnews, because first you would need a squeegie over there, than you'd have heads explode when the tape showed up on MSNBC.

138. OK, now I'm really confused.
Let's start again.

I am, let's say, a college professor. In my past I made a sex tape for a guy (or girl) I was crazy about. So now, 10 years later, I am trying to help a professor buddy who has been censored. Fox Noise buys my tape from TMZ (who got if from an ungrateful ex--it was a really excellent tape :) ) Now Fox is showing it to prove how awful liberal college professors are. What would be your response?

8. Well, since I am constantly amazed that there aren't gay men stepping forward with stories about....
..... Republican men they have had sex with in the past, then I can hardly fault someone for using such a take to his advantage. I think that if there is a guy out there who has had sex with Charlie Crist and/or Marco Rubio he should come forward to expose these hyposhits for what they are.

66. Well, if you change enough circumstances it'll fit any scenario
Actually, if my 19 yo daughter was in your class I'd figure she is an adult you can make up her own mind about it. I don't think there's anything wrong with Prejean having made such a tape for her boyfriend...hell, I don't really care if she made it for the whole internet, where it will probably appear sooner or later. My problem is with her presenting herself as a beacon of purity in an immoral world. If she had a 'live and let live' attitude this wouldn't be a big issue, but she doesn't.

Even if I disapproved of your class in some way (eg questioning your critical thinking ability), that's an opinion I can express but not act on. Again, the hypothetical case here has so little to do with reality that I think it's useless to try establishing moral equivalences.

But the contract does mean something. She shouldn't have signed it if she knew she couldn't live to its standards. And all of her moral bloviating rings awfully hollow because of her tape as well as other things.

199. As the parent of an 18 year old college student,
If I am willing to send my (adult) child off to experience life in the real (college) world, then I really have no right to be appalled at anything she might be exposed to. If I am, then maybe one of us wasn't ready to cut the cord, as it were.
And to answer your original post, taking the chance that today's boyfriend (or girlfriend) is going to be your life partner is risky. Once the breakup occurs, you should have played it safe and retrieved anything that could be held against you should you ever become famous (or infamous). Sadly, I would say it's your fault, if you can actually be blamed for someone elses lack of discretion (or class if you ask me). Unfortunately, it's the price we pay when we trust. I wouldn't give up on trusting people though.
Peace.

15. Depends.....
No woman should be subjected to those kinds of insults for making a sex tape, but if you now call for that tape to not be published, you lose your right to lecture on censorship.......When you made that tape and gave it to him, it became his property to do with as he pleases.

And this holds for couples. Seems that J.Lo is having a similar problem with her former ex husband.

All digital media: tapes, Internet, facebook, twitter, DU posts emails, voice mails - are there forever. So before you post anything online, or leave a voice mail or send an email - with or without attachment - think of how you'd feel if 10 years down the line you have a different feelings or interactions with the recipients of your missives and how you'd feel.

150. Don't think of it as punishment
Well, if it is a tape the skin may be wrinkly by now and some sagging here and there but if you loved what you did then, take pride and ownership of it.

I think that this would be the best strategy for this to "sink."

And if you've since entered a convent, just express your regrets and that you are trusting god to forgive you.

:shrug:

There have been several instances of rabid RWers who have had abortions and then regretted it. I think that "Roe" herself had. So you can turn "youthful indiscretion" into a badge of character.

Some will always praise you, others will call you a "flip flop." But if you are secure in your past actions, you'd come ahead.

But, I agree with your original premise that we, liberals, are often hypocrite the way we gang on the RWers while tolerate our own. Not just sex but other areas. (Sex is different if the politician has run on a "family value" slogan).

We have been "in your face" about Bush the way they are now about Obama. And, as our candidates often fail to realize: kitchen table issues are always the most important to the voters that will get them rally.

27. She was suing for $1 million for wrongful termination due to religous discrimination
Her production of a sex tape, even one for private viewing by a boyfriend, was a violation of the contract she signed to become a Miss California contestant. It was introduced as rebuttal evidence when she said she had never done anything to violate her contract. It wasn't blackmail.

I think she was naive if she didn't think a tape like this would come out. If she had won Miss USA the tape was destined to come out. The fact that she engaged in a high profile lawsuit against Miss California it was destined to come out. But again, she probably assumed that he didn't keep it.

This tape didn't cause her to lose her job, it was rebuttal evidence in a wrongful termination suit. She had already violated contract by not showing up to Miss California events and taking private speaking bookings. This was just the nail in the coffin.

182. But the discussion about the hypocrisy of progressives does not.
Progressives should be the last people to support the use of a private sex tape, made during the course of a relationship, to publicly bring down a female. That's what bothers me. You can be all for the firing of Prejean on technicalities, but don't be so happy about a private sex tape being used to do it. What happens when your sister or daughter gives a photo or a tape to a man she loves and later that is used to destroy her career? We, as progressives, should be for sexual privacy and against it being used to destroy people. Let the fundies believe in that kind of crap.

Edited on Tue Nov-10-09 03:30 PM by SidDithers
it was used as evidence in a legal proceeding.

Perhaps Ms. Prejean, knowing that there existed that particularly embarassing piece of evidence, which clearly showed that she breached her contract with her employer, shouldn't have been trying to extort $1 million from them. The defendant is under no obligation to "play nice" in their efforts to win in court.

202. As far as I'm concerned, anyone who is old enough to have sex
should be old enough to know NOT to make a sex tape or send nude pictures to a current lover unless they know they will get them back once they become an ex-lover. Now videotaping someone without their knowledge or consent is a whole different case, and should be severly dealt with. But that's not what we're talking about.
'Having your back' because you're a progressive doesn't mean you should stop taking responsibility for your actions.
Do I think Bill Clinton should have kept his vow of fidelity? Absolutely. Do I think he should have been treated the way he was by his colleagues, the media and much of the country? Absolutely not.
Did I think he was a great president? You bet, and it didn't change after monicagate. But I still think he was stupid and should have known better.
Whether we support the use of a private sex tape is irrelevant. What is important is that we all know (right or wrong) that they WILL be used, and as intelligent people, we should be vigilant about our own behavior and our responsibilities, especially when we choose to live a public life. Glass houses and all.
But that doesn't mean I won't support you when they try to attack you. Doing one stupid thing doesn't take away from all the smart things you do, you know?
Peace.

After all, in your scenario you haven't done anything that would be considered hypocritical--as a professor you're advocating non-censorship, not public morality. Also, "professor" and "beauty queen" aren't equally respected social positions.

61. You are taking a progressive stance 10 years down the road, she is taking
a hypocritical/anti-gay stance.

Most people gleeful over this masturbation tape are laughing because she was all values and shit, and it turns out she may not be as squeaky clean as her Repuke handlers thought she was.

Me? I liked the post the other day where someone said (paraphrased) "I hope that plenty of Repukes see this and realize that masturbation is a healthy and normal thing for people to do."

Still need to see your tape, though.

You cannot deterine that from a tape.

137. Jake, because there was a 'trust' between you two.
When you broke up, he should have destroyed the tape or given it back to you... First broken trust.

The second broken trust is when he sold it, without your knowledge or ability to have any say in it.

Sorry, that's just my opinion.

By the way, how hot are you in this tape?

149. Weak analogy.
Let's say you're a completely brainless bimbo who makes a living parading your Brazilian wax and breast implants around in a bikini. Let's say someone makes the mistake of asking you an actual serious question in the "interview" portion of one of these extravaganzas. Let's say the answer that pops out of your mouth is that your sexual identity is morally superior to other sexual identities. Let's say the religious right makes you their latest poster-child, and you launch a new mini-career based on bigoted sanctimony about "opposite marriage" and all the usual Xtian crap around sex, including but not limited to pre-marital chastity, etc. THEN let's say that a tape of you masturbating with a huge dildo (illegal in Alabama!) emerges, which, along with the topless photos that have also cropped up and been inadequately explained by you, kind of delivers the coup de grace to your newly minted image of heavily made-up fundie purity and wholesomeness. People call you impolite names, but the one that really stings is "hypocrite," because it's true.

158. Moral of the story here is - never send nude pictures/video to anyone. Relationships are fickle and
your parts are likely to be displayed all over the internet.

I know, everything thinks their relationship will last forever. Hell, I'm married and think my wife and I are perfect for each other, but even that will one day probably end in divorce. Very very few relationships stay together forever and it's not worth it to send your naughty bits out to anyone. If you do, then accept the consequences and the lesson learned.

It does not reflect on your present standing as a professor or what you are teaching.

IMO a good Christian would take almost exactly the same position. We have all sinned. We can be forgiven. I have things that come up on Web searches that I posted and now wish I had not posted. What really matters are your character and integrity NOW.
