Let's talk about p0rnstars (civily)

In an actual discussion value way. None of this "Dis gurl is gud" crap. I mean, like, actually talking about them and the whole industry. As in, why are the women of the p0rn industry constantly attacked? From what I've seen, any woman who goes into the industry must be 'damaged' or 'unstable' to allow this to happen to her. And it makes no sense to me. Someone like Sasha Grey for example, she has been very outspoken about it and her reasons for doing it. It's something she wanted to do. Yet when she goes on a talk show like Trya, it's almost like she's trying to be made to feel guilty about her choice. I don't understand how some people can't grasp that some women genuinely want to go into the industry and that they don't feel shame for doing so. What strikes me as more perplexing is that (from what I have seen) no male p0rnstar is victimised for being in the industry. I can see people using the argument of "Oh, but it's a guy so of course he's going to want to have sex so it makes sense for him to be a part of it." But that just seems absurd. It's assuming that no male p0rnstar could possibly be damaged in any state to want to join the industry. It also rejects the idea that women can actually enjoy sex and may join for that reason. Why is it so hard for some people to understand this? It seems like there's a huge double standard and sexism relating to both genders. And with a society that has said to be overly sexualising of women, why is p0rn still such a taboo that some people feel that any woman apart of it should be ashamed yet are fine with women modelling in overy sexual ways? I know there is some wide generalising here but you get the idea.
