On ‘The View,’ @Belle_Knox Says ‘Most People’ Start Watching Porn at Age 12

Posted on | March 19, 2014 | 73 Comments

 

Three weeks ago, when I first started blogging about Duke University freshman Miriam Weeks — a/k/a “Belle Knox,” the teenage porn star — some readers probably thought, “Yeah, there he goes again, on a weird marginal tangent.” But then she was interviewed by Piers Morgan on CNN and just Monday she appeared on ABC’s The View and, as weird as it may be, this story isn’t really so “marginal” anymore, is it?

Here’s your Belle Knox money quote from The View:

“Well, I, like most other people, have been watching
porn since I was 12 years old. . . . I watched it alone
and, like most other females, there’s a stigma
against watching pornography, so I was not
open about watching pornography.”

This quote occurs at about the 2-minute mark of the video clip:

A few obvious problems with this quote:

  • Are “most” 12-year-olds watching porn? Really?
  • Does the “stigma against watching porn” apply only to females? Isn’t the creepy guy wanking to porn also stigmatized?
  • Is the problem with 12-year-olds watching porn that they are “not open” about it because of the “stigma”? Or does Miriam Weeks want us to believe it’s healthy for kids to watch porn?

Isn’t there something profoundly disturbing about the idea that your typical seventh-grade classroom is full of porn freaks? But never mind that, says Miriam Weeks/”Belle Knox” — one of The View ladies made her feel “judged”!

‘Belle Knox’, the Duke student-turned-porn-star, claimed today that Sherri Shepherd was very condescending to her during her appearance on The View on Monday.
Knox — whose real name is Miriam Weeks — said that Shepherd refused to accept her decision to star in pornographic films to fund her tutition at the prestigious college — leaving her feeling judged.
Speaking out [Tuesday] on HuffPost Live, the 18-year-old star of some 30 adult movies also revealed that she does in fact regret one particular sex scene she starred in because it was too rough.
Appearing on Monday’s The View, Weeks said that all the women on the panel of the long running topical show made her feel they were scornful of her porn-career, but in particular Shepherd.
‘Sherri Shephered — was incredibly condescending and totally ignored by sexual autonomy,’ said Weeks to HuffPost Live.
Discussing the reaction to her outing by a fellow student as a porn-star with the all-female panel, Weeks said that at least Whoopi Goldberg left her feeling that she wasn’t alone.
‘Whoopi gave me a hug afterwards,’ said Weeks about her appearance on the show in which she revealed she had been watching porn since she was 12-years-old.
Indeed, Weeks also gave details of her regrets in the industry — namely an appearance in a rough sex scene which she filmed in New York City.
‘I regret doing the rough sex scene,’ said Weeks to HuffPost Live’s Ricky Camilleri.
‘But when I did the scene, I was comfortable.’ . . .
‘I love rough sex — and I can do this. That’s what I saw the choice as being.’

The fact that one of her first porn videos showed Miriam Weeks getting slapped around and raped is one of those “empowering” things only a Duke University Women’s Studies major can understand.

Guys who enjoy watching a teenage girl being sexually brutalized on video? Well, certainly we wouldn’t want to them to have a sense of stigma, because they might feel judged or something.

Here’s The View on Tuesday, talking about “feedback”:

    So she says, and the scar tissue looks like it.

    Poor thing. She is really a mess, and smart enough to create elaborate scenarios to explain why it’s all right.

    I agree with most of what you’re saying but not all cutters are victims of sexual abuse. But she has traded one form of self inflicted pain for another.

    I’ve taken to just laughing at them. Worked wonders when I was debating with a guy on Facebook that ended up getting so irate that I wouldn’t rise to his bait and instead kept needling him that he told me to take my gun and shoot someone. It was, if I do say so myself, my best exposure of an intolerant liberal masquerading as a concern troll ever. Of course, the mask went right back on and the apology was about as insipid and backhandedly insulting as you might imagine, but it was a glorious illustration of the inner workings of the liberal mind. They will dish it out all day and feel oh-so-smug… unless you dish it right back. Then they don’t know what to do but lash out. Makes it really easy to discount every word they say.

    Planet Relativism, where no matter what you say or do, if you feel like it’s right, it’s right and nobody should judge you because it’s not their reality. Unless they are one of those icky Christians, in which case they should all be lined up against a wall and shot because they hate gay people and want to steal women’s vaginas so the woman can’t abort their babies and have to spend the rest of their lives barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen making sammiches for the cismale gendernormative patriarchy of doom!

    Do you suppose she was abused at or around the age of 12? Kindof goes along with the cutting.

    Even if true, I think it’s safe to say that even now, most 12-year-olds don’t look at porn and go “I want to do *that* for money when I grow up.”

    There once was a wingnut named McCain
    Whom Anamika thought was Bloody Hell mean
    He’s sired a child
    Who’s bound to be wild,
    Cause its parents lean toward the obscene.

    The Duke men’s lacrosse team would be smart to stay as far away from Miriam Weeks as they possibly can. I’d guess a Duke classmate dating her is out of the question, right?
