18 Young, Playboy Grown

     Fresh out of high school with your entire life in front of you, what to do, what to do? Go to school or maybe work at your parents’ local business? Don’t worry little lady you have plenty of time to make your decision. Your body has curves you’ve never seen before and the guys are giving you a ton of attention. Being your first time at this thing called life you are not really sure how to handle all of this new found attention. You might have been somewhat popular in high school but those were just boys. The new attention comes from very grown men that express their lust for you in such a way that is attractive to a young fish like yourself. I mean think about it…. How easy is it for your 18yr old mind to manipulate a person 8 years younger than you??

The adult industry was made for adults by adults, but I have a problem with the term “adult”. I have never met a single 18 year old, including myself, who was capable of making grown-up decisions. Sure I would say “I’m a grown man!” but in hindsight, where my vision is 20/20, I now realize 8 years ago I was far from grown.

     There is a series of porno called “Exploiting Black Teens” and I couldn’t agree with the title more. This guy took some money, a camera, found some ‘teenage’ 18, 19 year old girls, took them to a cheap hotel and had sex with them. He explicitly states that he is ‘Exploiting Black Teens’ yet it is perfectly legal.

     Think about your own life for a second. Did you do things at 18 that you now consider crazy as an adult? Was your entire mind frame in a completely different place then? I sure hope so. I think it’s very wrong to take advantage of a young person at such a critical point in their lives. If an adult makes a decision as an adult then cool, but I have a problem when teenagers makes decisions as adults.

     I feel the age limit for entering adult entertainment should be raised from 18 to 21 years old. The adult industry claims that the ‘teen’ market makes up a very large percentage of their bottom line. My response to them is SO WHAT!! You are not going to convince me that your bottom line is more important than a person’s life. Do I feel the adult industry is a bad lifestyle? No, not necessarily. I just think a decision as such should be made with a sound developed mind. The years between 18 & 21 are like dog years, where 1 dog year equals 7 human years. Amazing growth takes place during this time and men ‘exploiting’ young girls isn’t helpful nor constructive. I call these teenagers girls because they are just that. Girls who are confused, fresh out of their mothers’ house trying to find their place in life. If their place in life is bent over naked in front of a man on camera then so be it. Just allow them to make that adult decision from the standpoint of an adult not a child!
