-Abrams argues that Jewish involvement in the development of American pornography, especially in the mid-20th century, was not incidental but ideologically motivated—an expression of rebellion against Christian cultural norms and a means of "ethnic revenge" against perceived repression. This can be explicitly seen in the aforementioned [[Triple-Exthnics>>attach:111175827-Triple-Exthnics-Nathan-Abrams-on-Jews-in-the-American-Porn-Industry.pdf]] |

Mainstream academic responses tend to downplay Jewish identity as a relevant factor. Still, even a brief examination of historical figures in the industry—such as Reuben Sturman (dubbed “the Walt Disney of porn”) or later digital-era producers—shows a disproportionate Jewish presence, similar to that seen in other media sectors. The issue becomes less about the fact of involvement and more about whether discussing it constitutes bigotry. |
