Travel Blog - 12/29/11 - MDW to SFO

Sometimes knowledge is power, but sometimes it's just plain sad. Currently on a Southwest flight, heading home from my 10 day Christmas "vacation" to South Carolina. I booked it with the many reward points I've accrued from my back and forth porno trips to LA (thanks porn!). I only had to pay the TSA $10, so I can't complain too much about the 4 hour layover and 2+ hour delay. I just made the mistake of asking the flight attendant how much time we have left, and let's just say it ain't good! 1 bloody mary, 2 grand marniers & a Sam Adams Winter Lager at Chicago Midway...now 2 tiny airplane bloody marys later I'm somewhere between drunk and a headache.

I spent the first hour of limbo browsing aiport stores, Fossil in particular, drooling over the leather purses (~$200, still too redneck for that) and belts. I can't help that even though I love animals, the wife and I have 3 rescue cats for fucks sake, nothing really compares to the smell and feel of real leather. Am I right pervs? I also eat meat on a daily basis and live in San Francisco, so I'm no stranger to the guilt and I've seen the nauseating documentaries. But god forbid you mention sniffing a purse on Twitter or some judgemental asshole will inform you that "supporting the cruelty of animals" and somehow even having kinky sex makes you a republican. Such a dirty word since I wouldn't even call myself a democrat.

As a gay loving, bisexual porn whore who's as liberal as they come the whole idiotic argument was baffling and a hilarious way to pass an hour in the airport bar. The rant is edited for length and censored for privacy although you can see the full extent of the silliness on my Twitter.

Ultimately it got me to thinking about the kind of bullshit you have to put up with as an adult performer. This is not a complaint by the way, just an observation. Granted this guy had a stance, just no manners and 100% confidence in his ability to sum me up in one comment, but it's just one example of the myriad of ways the vitriol trickles in from every avenue online.

2nd example of the day, the bootylicious (but definitely not lesbian) performer Sinn Sage who mostly works with women got this comment.

Everyone has their preferences, but the intensity is so unnecessary and random. Not to mention the fact she constantly talks about fucking the shit out of her boyfriend. Or that it's not the first time the same person has made dickish comments. It bores them to tears yet they can't look away or shut up.

It's hard enough to be a woman with opinions, but taking unashamed control of your sexuality is such a threat to some men. There will always be a certain subset of porn consumer that lashes out at performers, because they don't know what to do with their guilt over jerking it to whores. Maybe they just get off on being mean or they want to show the dumb sluts how smart they are, but doing webcam shows you hear it all. Standing up for yourself while kissing enough ass to keep some man from harassing you online is tricky business. It's the same all over the internet I guess, there's always a hater waiting to complain, and you can never please everyone.

For a better example than I could ever conjure up, head over to Billy Watson's blog IShootPorn.com for amazing examples of emails from paying members of the huge interracial site Blacks on Blondes (where giant black cocks drill all your favorite porn hos, and yes you can find me there). They are fucking fascinating gems;

"there must be a real shortage of women for your monkeys because there are always more men than women in your shots. Get a job losers.".

And I purposefully picked the most mundane, it gets pretty disgusting, and yet they are paying for it. I can't help but wonder if people deciding they know you after less than 140 characters or paying to essentially complain is unique to the porn world or not. Guessing it's the same for any public "personality", but sometimes you're stranded drunk in an airport for 6 hours and you lose your nice filter for a second, oops!

To all the fans who appreciate the dirty movies you pay for and see the holes getting fucked (and the cocks filling them) as real people who deserve respect, you're the fucking best. You are why I do porn.

I've been following your blog since I first found you one camwhores.com and except the member shows there. I've been a very silent lurker. But People like that I've learned are everywhere, not just harassing random online sex workers, but online artists, writers, and everyone else. Because they feel their cause is so great that they can change the world and the people in it by forcing their own point of view and thought process onto others.
Remember just because they are vocal doesn't mean they are the majority. Those who scream don't always get heard, it's the soft spoken that will usually have the most impact.
Just a few thoughts I wanted to share.

Most people cannot own up to knowing themselves fully so in turn they think they know others by categorizing them into societies labels. What I know about you is that you look amazing on video and I like watching you do whatever it is you are choosing to do at that particular moment. For someone to assume to know another when it is clearly impossible by watching video of you ACTING and therefore judge you in any way says more about themselves.

Dunno. You know your fans love and respect you. You probably hear more crazies because of your diverse and intense work, plus the new mainstream scenes.

Internet is big enough to have collections of random words that hurt. I'd have trouble handling that. Those examples are absurd, but I hope all the other negative crap gets drowned out too.

I prefer fake leather, but not for moral reasons (cheaper, stronger, inert, no-maintenance). It lacks a sensual smell and feel as well as a mood, so I get that. Can't care to comment on the rest of that twitter exchange -- I can't really care at all. Nobody in their right mind would have been watching the leather.
And so it goes Cherry
Definitely a big Cherry Torn f 2012-01-01 14:48:20

Some very thoughful, intelligent, and accurate comment postings above, and I'd go along totally with what the preceding commenters have said.

You put your finger on the essence of what this was all about Cherry, with your use of the word respect, your attacker clearly doesn't have much of that for anyone, and that's the whole basis of his behaviour.

He reminds me of people who sometimes say, " I prefer animals to people ", and it's usually not difficult to figure out why they make such a moronic remark. !

Of course he and anyone else is perfectly entitled to supposedly hold his particular views in regard to vegetarianism, animal welfare or to anything else.

What neither he nor others have a right to do, is to use their alleged personal beliefs as a weapon with which to attack other people, especially so when there is no apparent reason for subjecting that particlar individual or group to their bile.

The moment they do that, any validity that their argument may have had is immediately undermined and negated by their malice.

As to why he chose to target you, ( which puzzled me when I read the original posting on twitter ), I agree with the comments above which characterise him as more of a hater who wanted to cause offence and upset far more than he wanted to make any serious, logical or valid, arguments on the topic of animal welfare or animal rights.

I also agree with the assertion that he wasn't so much attacking porn performers per se, rather he was merely engaging in an abusive and unjustified and illogical rant at someone who just happens to be a porn artiste, and he could just as easily have chosen someone from another profession to scream at.

These people are indeed common on the net, ( it's probably the only place where they can get an audience for their absurd and bigoted opinions ).

They always seem to deliberately go out of their way to be supposedly offended, I believe that it's just an excuse for them to dump their abuse on other people, after all, why would you view a porn site for example, and then profess outrage at a particular aspect of that site ?, even though the nature of the site was obvious.

Your example of interracial sites featuring sex between black studs and white females was a well chosen example of such weirdly abusive behaviour, most such sites attract their share of posters whose only reason for being there seems to be to spread a little hate and to try to start arguments, I mean, if you don't smoke, why would you want to buy a cigar ?!.

Youtube is awash with this sort of nonsensical crap.

It's a natural reaction to defend oneself when attacked, but sometimes idiots such as the one in question are best ignored, ( which granted, can be a very difficult task ), they don't deserve to be taken seriously, and treating them with polite disdain and good humour, usually has the wonderful result of infuriating them, so why should you permit them to upset you, which was their probable intention, best to let them be the ones to be upset, why do their job for them. ?

Having said that, I noticed that on twitter, if I recall correctly, you answered this particular nut job calmly and intelligently, and didn't resort to exchanging insults with him, with speaks volumes about your obvious intelligence and character.

I've noticed this type of behaviour from you before, whenever you've been subjected to unfair and unfounded criticism, you never resort to insults or abuse and always make a calm and considered reply, so applause to you for that.

I wondered why you even bothered to enter into a discussion with him, but your explanation of booze, boredom, and fatigue explains that, and considering your condition, you did extra well to keep your cool, very impressive.

Sniffing handbags ?, ( good grief ! ), he was clutching at straws with that one !, and if that is your biggest " sin ", them I don't think that you have much to worry about.

If you're still feeling any annoyance about what he said, and how he said it, there's a very easy cure, just ask yourself this question, which of the two of you has the more interesting, productive, life affirming, giving, and happiest life ?, I think that the answer to that one is pretty obvious.

Finally on this particular topic, I'll finish with a couple of biblical quotes, ( I know how much you love those ! :) ).

Firstly as a previous poster has already alluded to, " empty vessels make the most noise ", and something that boyo might do well to ponder upon, " judge not lest ye be judged ".

As to your travel woes, check out the link below, I think you might enjoy it and find it useful, it's a free and simple site, and a video on the front page will quickly explain what it's about.

http://www.planely.com/

Hope you had a fantastic reunion with the missus, doubtless you did. !

Anyway Cherry, please never forget, ( and I am sure that you won't ), that for every unjustified critic, there are, (probably thousands), of us who love not only what you do, but also how you do it, why you do it, and what you say about it after you've done it.

Have a great year, and I think that you probably will.

Adios,...Cherry Torn rules. !!!

P.S. We REALLY need a Cherry Torn fan lub, how about it. ? ( all in favour, please tell Cherry ).

Respect is the key word. Some people don't respect others.

Funny, I thought a quote too while reading Cherry's post, "He preferred cats to people" (Debussy, according to The Art of Noise), but in an opposite way. Animals are amoral, but they aren't immoral or full of hate. Doesn't make me vegan, but sometimes I like animals more. I don't understand the obsession with judging people, or the desperate need to feel better than others irregardless of reality, but it's time for respect. Even if someone disagrees so intensely that we can't love one-another, anything less than respect is uncivilized. Disrespect is rejected.

Anyway, love to Cherry. I'm sorry that some fans (like me) lost their minds (unlike me), and lash out. To quote that Art of Noise song about Debussy again, "Debussy understood that a work of art, or an effort to create beauty, was always regarded by some people as a personal attack."

People like that are nothing but a bunch of attention whores, most of the time. They are either too stupid, or to ignorant to understand the fact that unless we keep the food-chain going....the World would be run over by farm animals, which would eat all the crops/plant life....and therefore, starve us humans (if we were all veggie eaters, like they want us to be).

I love my real leather Jackets, and boots. I've yet to see a theory put forward any any of these freaks which would make me think twice. Unless a species is endangered and verge of extinction...or preggo, it can be eaten.

damianozingaro 2012-01-07 12:19:53

Luckily I didn't log in for a while in Twitter. I missed all that shit. I am European: reading that drooling over a leather purse or having kinky sex are typically manifestations of being repubblican made me laugh a lot. There is a nice Itlaian quote to comment such reactions: "La mamma degli scemi è sempre in cinta." (The mom of the idiots is always pregnant).

Cherry shuns religion...but...maybe she should try
Def a big Cherry Torn fan 2012-01-08 12:58:29

Well now, on a different topic.

Regular Cherry followers will be aware that she sometimes deplores religion, fair enough, but I wonder if she might be persuaded by the following link, to reconsider, and perhaps decide to don the habit of a nun, complete of course with suspenders, black stockings & split skirt.

The situation to which this URL leads, might well provide enough suffering and depravity to satisfy even Cherry's needs and desires in that regard.

Hi again Cherry

I haven't written to you since your days on "Cherry Torn.com" when you used to write regularly about your personal life and your interest in computers.....

Unfortunately most of your postings on here are garden variety stuff about your latest work but I'm not complaining about that.

Briefly I agree with pretty much everything in this post...... some guys are riddled with insecurities and they are threatened by all of that which means that notwithstanding their distant attraction to you they feel threatened by something that is unattainable and yet is compelling to them.

So that is my segue into my comments.....
I freely admit I've always had a crush on you though although you are clearly unattainable as well. You are 2000 miles away in a different country and you are 30 years younger than me, what an awful shame because my crush revolves around the fact that on the one hand you are pretty and sexy and very open minded sexually but it is abundantly clear from your writings that you are also highly intelligent! What a DEVASTATING combination! Oh well I will always continue to be a member of your fan club and don't hesitate to vent on this site! Porn is perfectly legal and legitimate and I defend and respect your right to practice your profession just as much as I do my right to view it and communicate with you in a respectful manner. You have plenty of decent and good guys out there who are fans. Please do try and remember that.

I asked you in a message a very long time ago if you were pursuing your computer studies. Apparently not at least then. I wonder though if you have given much thought to your life after porn. Like a ballet dancer and an athlete it is unfortunately a limited career. As intelligent as you are and despite the fact you are a long way from the end of porn acting have you given any thought to your future career?

Take care and stay strong
Joe

Cherry Torn 2012-01-29 17:07:02

Darkwun that is very true and something I always keep in mind. At this point in my career I've made peace with the haters, I just find the human behavior patterns interesting. Thanks for following all these long years :).

Alan I couldn't agree more.

Blank, the negative crap definitely gets drowned out. It's just a vocal minority that makes a hobby out of complaining then continuing to watch.

Arin I do think the way animals are treated in the food and clothing industry is pretty appalling, but for whatever reason I'm not sensitive enough to go vegan.

A Big Fan, Youtube is a great example. The comments are so inane they are unsuable. I wouldn't ordinarily take the bait, but I did have a lot of hours to kill.

Damianozingaro being from the South, not to mention my time in the UK, I have little patience for attitudes like that. SF is one of the most rabid socially conscious cities I know of, so I am definitely well informed about the animal cruelty issue. The inability to respect personal choice is just baffling.

I've been a little lax with the writing Joe Pee. Gotta do better, but I have such a huge backlog of shoots to post I get distracted with them. I gave up my studies a bit after I started The Upper Floor, because I was there over 40 hours a week. One day I'll continue.

Peter, unfortunately I work with so many different companies that probably won't happen. One of the reasons I try to keep this site (somewhat) up to date is because my work is so scattered across the internet. A Kink.com compilation would be pretty sweet though.
we bother U because... 2012-01-30 07:49:08

soo, Ur both an education & information source.
honestly, we don't mean to be a bother...

i've been into bdsm since my teens (yes of COURSE some cute stories! :) i have a stong theory about how many hearts get soothed & healed & how many rapes are prevented y sex workers diffusing the compulsive monster...no it's not mainstream phsychology but i believe it's an honest concept that you understand very well...GOD luv ya Sweetie!
