Ex-porn star reading to LA students causes stir

[RandySF]

COMPTON, Calif. -- Some parents have filed complaints with the Parent-Teacher Association after a former adult film star said she read to children in a classroom at a Los Angeles County elementary school.

Sasha Grey, a 23-year-old ex-porn actress who has appeared in mainstream shows like HBO's "Entourage," was a guest earlier this month at Compton's Emerson Elementary School for Read Across America Day.

Grey tweeted Nov. 2 that she spent the day reading to students in the first and third grades.

KTLA-TV ( http://bit.ly/uZ5zY8) quoted parents questioning whether it was appropriate to have Grey at the school. Parent Dudley Wheaton wondered why the school couldn't find a fireman or a police officer to read to students.

1. Who was she schtupping front of the kids? Were they showing her films to the kids?

What's the problem?

Sheesh, we have enough problems in the world. People don't need to create them.

[alcibiades_mystery]

2. Oh fer gawd's sake

She wants to volunteer to read at a school, why shouldn't she?

Geez, the shit people will complain about.

[GoneOffShore]

3. Good for Sasha - And the parents are nuts.

[femrap]

21. Daddy must have

recognized her from her pron films.:evilgrin:

[Ian David]

4. I am sure she played a firefighter or a police woman in one of her films. n/t

[RandySF]

8. Maybe all the police officers and fire fighters were already laid off.

[kayakjohnny]

15. Now there ya go....

:evilgrin:

[provis99]

40. er, yes she did.

Don't ask me how I know that. A little birdie told me, yeah that's it...

[Ian David]

5. Why not make her wear a giant "P" for "Porn Star" on her chest so children can avoid her forever? nt

[petronius]

45. You want children to have to look at her chest? You disgust me.

:P

[Major Nikon]

6. I wonder how many of the sanctimonious parents actually took the time to read to their kids

Something other than the bible, that is.

[scarletwoman]

7. Apparently those parents were worried that their children would recognize her from her porn films.

That's the only way their objections make sense, right?

[Matariki]

17. Ha!

[femrap]

22. Daddy saw her in her pron days.

Don't you just love patriarchy. All the dudes demanding FREE SPEECH so they can watch their pron. And they demand that women have the 'freedom' to act in pron films. And then when a woman leaves that industry, she is vilified. See, women can only be whores or madonnas...that's patriarchy. Pathetic culture we live in.

Good for her to volunteer reading to the kids. Where were the dudes watching pron? Oh, watching pron....the dudes just don't have time to volunteer.

[Warren DeMontague]

26. I think people should be free to re-invent themselves as much as they want

still, they should only have one self at a time.

[TheDebbieDee]

9. Don't you understand? That kind of behavior, that of a pornstar,

is CONTAGIOUS! This stuff rubs off on people, especially impressionable little children.

Innocent children who didn't even know what a pornstar was until their parents started making a big deal out of a pornstar that READS.

:sarcasm:

[Quartermass]

12. Cool

Maybe if we were all porn stars people wouldn't be so uptight about things.

If I were running that school, I'd lecture those parents on God's forgiveness, which is what they're not doing.

God forgives, most people do not. Once you've done something wrong, most people, including many Christians, will not forgive or forget.

And i wouldn't be bothered by it even if she was still making porn.

I just don't see the big ass deal.

(Pun intended)

[Ohio Joe]

10. You have got to be shitting me...

You know these assholes would be just fine with it if it was someone who killed a few dozen people in every movie because they think violence is ok but sex is bad. Stupid douchebags.

[AngkorWot]

11. I guess prudes are gonna prud.

[femrap]

25. Dad saw her while

watching pron. The woman always is wrong...that's patriarchy. It's our culture of patriarchy.

Look at Cain...just how many women have to come forward to get this lecher??? How many?

[Warren DeMontague]

29. hey.. where's seabeyond? She probably has something to add, here.

[MadBadger]

13. Very interesting Google Image Search of Ms Grey

:evilgrin:

[alcibiades_mystery]

16. You mean you didn't know what she looked like already?

Er, I mean, what?

:-)

[kayakjohnny]

19. It's the eyebrows, isn't it? Go ahead and say it.

It's the brows.

[rrneck]

14. Kinda makes me wish I was a kid again. nt

[BiggJawn]

18. When did we become such a squeemish nation?

I just don't understand what this country's collective problem is with sex.

And why a fireman or police officer? They don't have sex? Sure, Authoritarian parents *WOULD* be more comfortable with an Authoritarian Ideal of a "Hero", wouldn't they?

These bluenoses are so afraid that Murrika's gonna collapse in a heap of decadence "Just like ancient Rome did!" that they're gonna push it off the cliff in the other direction.

[WinkyDink]

38. Does the term "Plymouth Rock" mean anything to you?

[BiggJawn]

43. Yeah, it does.

Fuckin' Calvinists...

I just got finished with a magazine article about sex education for 6-grade girls (12 year-olds) the article said that the statistics showed a decrease in the incidence of teen-age pregnancies. This article was from 1944.

Yep, 1944.

It also stated that the program they were describing had NO opposition from parents when it was introduced into the schools.

Now fast-forward almost 70 years and hysteria and fiction rule the roost. Can't tell 12-y-o about sex, my GAWD! they're too young, and besides, you educate them about sex and they're liable to, you know, EXPERIMENT!!!

I think we've become more superstitious, uptight, and primitive in our thinking. We're not becoming more decadent and permissive, a large portion of the population is becoming more ultra-conservative, and these puritanical "Good Old Days" they pine for haven't existed for nigh on 400 years.

[seabeyond]

48. 300k x's the number of kids they have + the unknowns

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=439&topic_id=2295194&mesg_id=2295194

300,000 unique computers identified by law enforcement trafficking in the most brutal and violent child pornography movies and images




yes, what is the issue in the u.s. being concerned about the health of our kids. silly parents. "They don't have sex?", "Murrika's gonna collapse in a heap of decadence", "Just like ancient Rome did!"

"I just don't understand what this country's collective problem is with sex." truly, i dont understand america's problem with sex, either. tell me about "plymouth rock". how arrogant we are

"Where are the adults at Penn State?"

The number of Jerry Sandusky victims is now over twenty and climbing. The reality is there are probably over a hundred kids who were victimized over the past three or four decades. Decades!

Is it any wonder then that Jerry Sandusky was allowed to be a monster for so long?

[sharp_stick]

20. Better a Porn Star

than a Priest IMO

[GoneOffShore]

31. or a football coach

[killbotfactory]

23. I wonder how shocked the parents would be if they found out that every child in the room

Is alive because two people had sex.

[PCIntern]

24. the Soderberg (sp?) movie was very good...

it really was....

[Warren DeMontague]

27. I'm not feeling the outrage

I mean, schools have let far creepier people read stories to kids.

[Blue_Tires]

28. I'm a least a little curious how she got chosen to begin with...

and who she got chosen over...The whole thing seems strange to me...

[athenasatanjesus]

30. That's the way to get people to leave the porn industry.

Trap them by not ever forgiving them,and allowing them to try on new careers,even if they leave the industry at a young age like 23.

[edhopper]

32. That is outrageous

They should have gotten an upstanding citizen. like an assistant coach for a major AAA Division college football team.

[Warren DeMontague]

33. Or a Priest!

I hear Father Fondlefingers is available.

[Arkansas Granny]

34. Maybe they could get these firemen with their long . . . .

hoses.

[Warren DeMontague]

35. Jesus

If I were gay, I'd have to excuse myself right now.

[seabeyond]

36. why would anyone know an Xporn actress read to the kids. she should be addressed ms. grey

there would be no reason for the kids or the parents to know she is an xporn actress.

[hughee99]

37. Didn't LA just have a couple of policemen get in trouble for

being in porn while on duty? Maybe they were available.

[WinkyDink]

39. Maybe because she wouldn't be allowed to teach there? (I don't make school policy.)

[Richardo]

41. "....yeah, a stir in my *pants*!!"

Had to be said. :D

[TheCowsCameHome]

42. Some kids have all the luck.......

damn.

[krispos42]

44. If she wasn't in character, or recruiting fresh talent, the parents should be silent

After all, a porn star has much better morals and ethics than a politician.

[Odin2005]

46. These bozos want to go back to scarlet letters.

[Marr]

47. Of course. No one who's ever had sex should be around children.

Only priests and people like that.

[Fire Walk With Me]

49. Oddly, a full-time moran and war criminal read "The Pet Goat" to kids

and no one batted an eye.
