Exploitation? I’m starting to feel guilty about subscribing to amateur Asian sites, particularly the Vegas Dreamworks (VD) sites. Among others, they own Trike Patrol, a site I once said was my favorite site. I now believe they are exploitative even though the actors are “willing” participants. It could be argued that if VD didn’t put out these videos, the girls would find other ways to make money in the sex trade. It’s estimated that Thailand alone has 800,000 women that work in the trade. That’s an astounding number. But is that a viable excuse? I particularly have mixed feelings after seeing some of the videos on TukTuk Patrol, another VD Thai site, sort of Trike Patrol’s sister site. Trike Patrol takes place mostly in the Philippines. It was readily obvious that at least some, if not most, of these women were doing the videos because they had little choice. The video that prompted these thoughts was one that I found heartbreaking. It was of a Thai girl who had to get permission from her mother before making the scene. She got permission apparently. And honestly, she didn’t look 18. If one is to believe the story lines in the VD videos, no ID is checked. No condoms are ever used. The actors boast of their conquests. I don’t want to pontificate because I’m just as guilty as the next guy. I have supported these sites by subscribing and writing reviews. And by extension, PU supports these sites, or at least the VD sites, by listing them. But I’m considering changing my ways and boycotting VD and other similar studios. Am I missing something? Is this not inherently wrong? | |

Hello jook. Can you tell me the name of the scene or the model in the scene you speak of? And to speak frankly, there are many things I have come across in my time in this industry that have given me pause. Edited on Oct 06, 2016, 12:12pm | |

The video(s) I was referring to were on asiansexdiary.com -- specifically on this page... http://asiansexdiary.com/members/category/by-location/laos/. It is actually of a Laotian girl and is in the Laos section. The first video is called "Meeting Nam." Nothing happens except the actor gets her to go back to his hotel room and, per the actor appropriately named John, Nam needs to get permission from her mother to be with a foreigner. The actual sex video is called "Nam." The whole premise of the site gives me the chills. It's about one guy who travels throughout Asia picking up women and filming his exploits. I felt guilty for watching but couldn't stop myself. That is, until I saw the video of Na just yesterday. I'm curious what your thoughts are. I should also add that this is a company that professes to protect the women. All of the sites were streaming only for a while. The reason given was to protect the girls. I think that's a bunch of malarkey now. The site I'm referring to is still streaming only. I also find it very ironic that John remains anonymous and covers his face in the videos. | |

You're right to call "malarky" at such ridiculous claims of doing these things to protect the girls. In the age of easy video capture & rampant porn piracy, streaming does nothing to protect the girls, if it ever did - nor does showing the girls but concealing the face of the guy. There are a lot of sites that are all about filming scenes with girls and ladyboys picked up in Thailand, the Philippines, etc. | |

The worst excesses of the porn industry are due to the industry, not the porn. The economic demand for quantity of produce, and similar, is what gets 'talent' to be managed as commodities. This kind of industrial economics blights much of the world, and in similarly unethical ways. Porn done well needn't be exploitative or unethical in this way, and I generally look for porn that is less exploitative rather than more when it comes to paying for it. | |
