Some interesting debate last week when Sasha Grey read to 1st graders and everyone was like, "why are we allowing an anal sex scene award-winner read to our children!"
Sasha has been retired for a couple years (No confirmation on whether my question about sex for 10, 000 hours and being a "fucking genius" is to blame). I did feel dirty, or at least a little conflicted after my interview w/ her cause I do believe in, y'know, empathy, and participating in the media newscycle you can sort of predict exactly this sort of scenario where someone is just looking to do a good deed and it becomes a TMZ headline and gossipy and it's like "what's a porn star to do??"
Then again you become a porn star and you must realize "Best Double Penetration" might be a potential problem on the resumé when you want to be a teacher or crossing-guard or whatever.
I don't have children, and have no idea if I'd be up in arms if my daughter came home and was asking "who is Sasha Grey, daddy?" only to find myself constantly trying to peep out her google searches over her shoulder. I imagine all bets are off once it's your child staring at the teacher's booty-hole. But I do applaud Ms. Grey for having the
Sasha Grey: I Will Not Quit Reading to Elementary Schoolchildren [TMZ]
I just don't see the upside to Sasha Grey reading to the children. She's not enough of a celebrity to be someone they look up to. Are there really so few eligible athletes, musicians, etc. that we need to engage this industry for reading in classrooms?
ReplyDeleteBEST. TEACHER. EVER.
ReplyDeleteThis is not a question.
heh. might need some thought bubbles on those kids with their hands raised.
ReplyDeleteI had more problems with George W Bush reading to children.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if GW still reads to kids...
ReplyDeleteI don't even have kids, but if I did I would say, she can evolve her reputation but not around my children. I have seen her work, even enjoyed it a couple I'd times but we all know that she's done some depraved shit. Her hands, her mouth, every part of her has been covered with sperm or held or been beaten by big black penises. She would not be touching my children, takinnpictures with them and giving them hugs! Hell no!
