I (Deisenbe) created this category. I was unaware of the previous entry, but that was only Jewish pornographic film actors. This is broader.
I am myself Jewish and my intent in creating this category was not to denigrate Judaism, but to praise it. Please see the category Judaism and sexuality (cannot be hotlinked, but put category:judaism and sexuality in the search box). deisenbe (talk) 15:36, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
It is a case of the traditional revolutionary/radical drive of immigrant Jews in America being channelled into sexual rather than leftist politics. Just as Jews have been disproportionately represented in radical movements over the years, so they are also disproportionately represented in the porn industry. Jews in America have been sexual revolutionaries. A large amount of the material on sexual liberation was written by Jews. Those at the forefront of the movement which forced America to adopt a more liberal view of sex were Jewish. Jews were also at the vanguard of the sexual revolution of the 1960s. Wilhelm Reich, Herbert Marcuse and Paul Goodman replaced Marx, Trotsky and Lenin as required revolutionary reading. Reich's central preoccupations were work, love and sex, while Marcuse prophesied that a socialist utopia would free individuals to achieve sexual satisfaction. Goodman wrote of the 'beautiful cultural consequences.' that would follow from legalizing pornography: it would 'ennoble all our art' and 'humanize sexuality' Pacheco was one Jewish porn star who read Reich's intellectual marriage of Freud and Marx (lukeford.net):
"Before I got my first part in an adult film, I went down to an audition for an X-rated film with my hair down to my ass, a copy of Wilhelm Reich's Sexual Revolution under my arm and yelling about work, 'love and sex'."
As Rabbi Samuel H. Dresner put it (E. Michael Jones, 'Rabbi Dresner's Dilemma: Torah v. Ethnos' Culture Wars, May 2003), 'Jewish rebellion has broken out on several levels' one being 'the prominent role of Jews as advocates to sexual experimentation.' Overall, then, porn performers are a group of people who praise rebellion, self-fulfilment and promiscuity. http://www.fpp.co.uk/BoD/origins/porn_industry.html deisenbe (talk) 17:51, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
