Porn Star stands up for Female Rights

 
This video was created in honour of Equal Pay Day in Belgium where the wage gap is 22%. Ie. A man earns 22% more than a woman in Belgium. Sasha Grey, happily, glumly suggests porn to any woman looking to out-earn a man.

According to Adfreak, women are encourage to get temporary tramp stamps that read “Close the wage gap, become a porn actress." 

I understand wearing low cut shirts in Boobquake (a movement to prove an Islamic preacher that a woman’s sexuality does not in fact cause natural disasters) and the skanky attire for the Slut Walks (a reaction to the Torontonian cop telling female student if they want to avoid rape they shouldn’t dress like a slut). 

However, I don’t see how an underlining and amplifying our sexuality is appropriate in this setting. In a male dominated workforce the tramp stamp will only hurt your creditability.

  1. Ya I definitely don't see how this ad campaign is doing any good. It kind of disgusts me actually.
