girls were getting drunk and voluntarily taking there clothes off long before he came around to take vids of it.

young girls seek recognition, attention, and sexual validation in copious amounts when they are younger.....he was just filling a need in the market place.

and god bless him for it.

That's what urges them to take their clothes off and go wild?

I think IcebergSlim's theory is much closer to the facts:

[Edit] The whole quote...because supposedly, it doesn't make sense in segments

As slummy as this guy may be you all hate him because he's the face of this problem and making sick money from it all. Taking him out will do nothing. Someone else will take his place. He only makes the MILLIONS he makes because we as a society label this stuff so taboo and men everywhere fork over lots of money to watch it in private.

I think if there were less social stigma attatched with this along with a better method of teaching young men how to respect women we see a lot less of this going on.

And when you demonize him, please remember that the unreal standards we hold women to are what urge them to take their clothes off and go wild like this. We've instilled a sense of apathy in young women that's truly appaling.

That said.....SHOW ME THEM TITTIES!!!

The law being discussed requires them to have a copy of a photo ID such as a drivers license and keep a CURRENT address of everyone who appears for a period of about two years. (meaning, if someone moves, they have to track them down)

Note that I haven't really seen very much GGW stuff, but...

For the staged sex scenes, I understand.

However, that's fairly silly for the crowds of women on public beaches that flash his cameras. If a parent knows/cares so little about what their 16-year-old daughter is doing that she's able to be out partying among college kids and flashing strangers, then they've just given GGW their implied consent...

But of course, that'll never fly in court...and it's too bad the parents of those underage girls can't be sued. And, hell, I'm sure parents of such teen girls (who go wild) are the type doing the suing

That's pretty much what i meant. Thought that came through, although I can see how it didn't if you cut sentences out.

lol I love how a stupid concept that has been around for ages can net someone millions and millions of dollars every year, just from a fancy and catchy name.

...or if you take words by their real life definitions?

"social stigma attatched with this....young men [who don't] respect women....[and] the unreal standards we hold women to"

versus

"getting drunk....recognition, attention, and sexual validation"

Sorry, but they're not the same thing.

Beyond pointing out female apathy, you've tried to blame everyone (society, men, society again) but the actual women who flash him.

The dude spends over a million a year on lawyers alone. This is less than what he wiped his butt with last night.

The Justice Department said the case is the first filed under a law passed by Congress designed to prevent the sexual exploitation of children.
Think of the children! We will do anything as a nation to protect the children! Though once they become adults we don't care!

These girls were hardly children, more like underage grown-up girls who willingly take off their clothes.

haha. I always wondered about the age thing whenever I saw these ads on tv. If the girls are so drunk they willingly flash people, how do you get them to fill out the paper work validating their age and listing their address?

I'm sure it is...I imagine it's played no small part (along with games) in the advancement of technology
