The problem with those girls is that they start really young and typically they have some underlying serious mental/emotional issues. I think at first they put on a cheery facade to gloss over their pain but as they get older their underlying issues overwhelm them. Being in porn doesn't help, but in most cases its likely not the root cause for them becoming trainwrecks. It would have happened anyway, it just becomes being more public as a result of being in porn.

I remember reading a speech that Nina Hartley once gave (and I think she would have a good take on this) where she said that from her observation for some women, being in porn was an empowering experience, but for most it was personally devastating. She said that she allways advised young girls who were thinking about getting into the business to wait until they were about 25, then decide. At that point they would still be young, but emotionally mature enough to go into it with their eyes open. I doubt Lia was following Nina's advice (or was even aware of it), but if she was going to do hardcore, she appears to have gone about it in the right way.

Boys, you HAVE TO BE RIGHT about Lia's harcore decision... if just for her sake.

ok, some ftv girls have done hardcore.

BUT, they come to ftv to get a shoot, and rob puts all his work into it and they just leave. maybe it's because they can't get work or is it they were trying to pick and chose what they wanted to do,in the hardcore business.

again, i'm sorry to see this happen.
very hard business to be in ( hardcore ).
you know Rob, just keep looking for other girls like
Cari Banks, Allison,
