Benz first made the allegations via Twitter in late December of 2016, following the shoot in question. She tweeted, “The director himself put his hands on me and was choking me. Never in a million years did I think Brazzers would allow it.” She added, “I guess rape scenes are in now huh?” Benz also tweeted at the time that she had been stomped on. Her tweets followed several allegations of on-set abuses made against porn star James Deen in 2015. Just last month, porn performers Leigh Raven and Riley Nixen took to YouTube with allegations of abuse during a shoot.

In Benz’s case, the scene in question was directed by Tony T. and shot for Brazzers, a thriving production company owned by the industry behemoth MindGeek. Benz alleges that she was only told beforehand “that the shoot would be hardcore and what she would be wearing” and “knew nothing else about the shoot.” The suit says she only consented to be touched by co-star Ramon Nomar, but that Tony T. participated in the on-screen action, slapping her while saying, “Open your eyes bitch” and “Open your fucking eyes.” Benz alleges that she called “cut” several times to point out that she had only agreed to perform with Nomar.

The suit adds, “[Tony T.] would film with one hand and choke Benz with the other hand. Nomar stomped on Benz’s head. Between Tony T. and Nomar, Benz was hit, slapped choked and thrown on the ground and against the wall.” It further alleges that this made Benz bleed and that “water was poured on the walls and floor to cover up her blood.” It also alleges that “while Benz was gagged with her underwear,” water was “poured down her throat, causing Benz to choke.”

Benz alleges that during her on-screen exit interview after the scene, a standard practice during which performers confirm that everything was consensual, she was asked whether she would do the same shoot again and said that she would not. “Tony T immediately yelled, ‘Stop!’ He then turned off the camera,” according to the suit. “Off camera, Tony T yelled, ‘Fuck Nikki, you can’t say that!’” Benz alleges that Tony T. then made her re-record her exist interview with a “yes” response and told her that “if she did not do so, Benz would not receive her check,” according to the suit.

In addition to alleging sexual battery against MindGeek, Brazzers, Tony T., and Nomar, the suit alleges “gender violence,” a “hostile work environment,” and “sexual harassment,” citing state civil codes. Benz is seeking an award of attorneys’ fees and punitive damages.

MindGeek, Brazzers, Tony T., and Nomar did not respond to a request for comment by press time. However, Tony T. has previously deniedBenz’s accusations and filed a defamation lawsuit against her, as well as MindGeek and Brazzers, which cut ties with the director following Benz’s allegations. Benz told Jezebel in an email, “I hope me coming forward and standing up for myself will change how female performers are treated in my industry by producers, directors, and certain male talent,” she said. “We are not objects. Our rights are human rights.”

End porn.

WHEN MEN SAY WOMEN ENJOY IT THEY ARE BLATANTLY LYING AND FORCING THEM TO LIE AS WELL

Sickening.

“Benz alleges that during her on-screen exit interview after the scene, a standard practice during which performers confirm that everything was consensual, she was asked whether she would do the same shoot again and said that she would not. “Tony T immediately yelled, ‘Stop!’ He then turned off the camera,” according to the suit. “Off camera, Tony T yelled, ‘Fuck Nikki, you can’t say that!’” Benz alleges that Tony T. then made her re-record her exit interview with a “yes” response and told her that “if she did not do so, Benz would not receive her check,” according to the suit.”

Porn users frequently say they know the performers enjoyed themselves because of what they say in the exit interviews. Show them this.

Also, this qualifies as human trafficking. Fraud, force, or coercion.

“But women choose to do porn, porn is harmless” cry the men who can’t go a day without jerking off to a woman being brutalized on film for their entertainment.

since goblin slayer has pissed off all these idiot people looking for shit to get offended at (and some people that genuinely didn’t know what to expect cause crunchyroll is shit at labelling and age rating/restricting their shows)

i’m looking forward to all the edgy gorefiends getting alienated at the whole stretches of goblin slayer that are about the characters, worldbuilding, and revealing what happened to goblin slayer, the tedium of him preparing for everything, getting into the depths of his obsession and trauma and him doing the mundane shit in his life like turn in contracts, go patrol, do labor, pay his bills and talk with his party members he gets/priestess/cow girl/other characters without ANY goblin gangrape or extreme violence

Goblin Slayer Episode 1: TOTAL PARTY WIPE, GANGRAPE, PEOPLE GETTING TORN TO SHREDS, POISONING, MERCY KILLING, AND GOBLIN SLAYER KILLS THEM ALL! EVEN THE LITTLE BABBY GOBLINS!!! HEAVY METAL AS FUCK!!!

Goblin Slayer Episode 2: Goblin Slayer Pays His Bills And Looks At A Fence.

The second episode actually got me to pull up the manga and start reading it. Considered the light novels, but I’d rather not leave my imagination to form the pictures in this case.

Up to chapter (I think I’m on) 18, Goblin Slayer is 50% making fun of Goblin Slayer’s obsession with slaying goblins, 10% people realizing why he’s so obsessed with slaying goblins (this is the horrific stuff and/or realizing goblins are actually threatening), 25% baiting Goblin Slayer to do something other than slaying goblins, 7.25% priestess dilemmas, 5% slaying goblins, and 2.75% women fawning over Goblin Slayer.

Like. Beneath all the gory aspects, it’s unbelievably dorky. Which is in sharp contrast to everything I was told when the anime was first announced.

The banter between Goblin Slayer’s party members is honestly really heartwarming. They’re all really cool characters and it’s cute to see them interact.

Any amount of rape is too much.

Rape is NOT a plot device. And “material since viewers may consider disturbing” is not a specific enough warning.

I can handle graphic violence, especially in animation, but rape in any medium fucks with your head and we shouldn’t so easily trivialize it.

If their goal was to show that goblins are evil and a threat, the total party wipe would be sufficient. Rape is taking it too far. Even off screen. It’s not ok.

What Science Says About Arousal During Rape | Popular Science

“Despite what many rapists would like to believe, arousal does not mean that an assault was enjoyable or that a victim was asking for it. So what does it mean?Quite simply, our bodies respond to sex. And our bodies respond to fear. Our bodies respond. They do so uniquely and often entirely without our permission or intention. Orgasm during rape isn’t an example of an expression of pleasure. It’s an example of a physical response whether the mind’s on board or not, like breathing, sweating, or an adrenaline rush. Therapists commonly use the analogy of tickling. While tickling can be pleasurable, when it is done against someone’s wishes it can be very unpleasant experience. And during that unpleasant experience, amid calls to stop, the one being tickled will continue laughing. They just can’t help it.”

“Recent experiments suggest that vaginal lubrication in women may be an adaptive response designed to reduce injury from penetration. The body is not enjoying itself – it is trying to protect itself.

Finally, horribly, some rapists enjoy making their victims’ bodies respond to the assault as a sign of dominance. These rapists work to get a physical response from their victims. They have learned how fear and anxiety can correspond to other forms of heightened arousal, and they exploit the connection.”

“Unsurprisingly, rape survivors who experience arousal and rape report confusion and shame thanks to this conflation of the physical response of arousal and its usual association with enjoyment. A survivor may ask, “Was this something I subconsciously wanted? Am I in some way guilty? If my body responded this way, does it mean I’m mentally disturbed?” The reality is that the body’s arousal response is no more an indication of guilt or mental illness than an elevated heart rate or adrenaline flood would be under the same circumstances.”

this is a Very important post and i hope any girl or woman who needs to read it can

And any boy or man who needs to read it can as well. Basically any rape survivor should read this.
