What are the consequences of children’s unlimited access to free, easily accessible porn? Meet a mom who thinks 13 is too young to tell her daughter what she does for a living – until her daughter makes a discovery online. Then, Jon travels to Oklahoma, where one young man’s relationship to PornHub lands him in a veritable purgatory with few options for moving ahead.
The butterfly effect includes some sexually explicit material, and so it's not suitable for everyone.
I want to tell you something that a friend said when she heard I was making a series that's in part about porn.
She said, it has to be anti porn.
It has to be about how vulnerable girls are getting lured into the business.
When she said that, I remembered something that the porn star Conor Habib, told me soon after I began researching life in the valley.
He said, I can find whatever story I want to tell here.
There are upbeat porn stories.
There are bleak porn stories.
They're all here.
The only limits would be my biases.
And there is some bleakness here.
It's true.
I've embedded myself with the porn director, Mike Quasar, these past months, and he feels it, too.
You know, when we first met about a year ago, you said that everybody in porn had a kind of wisp of darkness to them.
Yeah.
Do you think that is true?
Yeah, there's a lot.
I mean, a lot of the girls have boyfriends that are just creeps.
You know, we call them suitcase pants.
There's been many of them over the years.
