Today we are re-airing an episode from Stephanie's podcast, Laid Bare With Anonymous X (still available on spotify and all podcast platforms). In this powerful episode re-airing on 7 On Sundays, host Stephanie Boye interviews Cici, a former porn star, who candidly shares her experiences and busts myths surrounding the adult film industry. Big porn is as corrupt and deceitful as all the other BIGs - tobacco, food, pharma. The discussion focuses on the harsh realities faced by performers, including the lack of consent, painful and degrading scenes, unrealistic depictions of sex, and the psychological and physical toll on those involved. This episode aims to educate listeners about the true nature of the porn industry, encouraging critical thinking and informed choices. Viewer discretion is advised.
