26	26	A particularly controversial area of discourse is the claim of Jewish dominance in the pornography industry. This idea is often traced to a provocative essay by Jewish academic Nathan Abrams, titled “Triple-Exthnics” (2004), which states:
27	27
28		->"There’s no getting away from the fact that these pioneers of porn were Jewish."
	28	+>A story little told is that of Jews in Hollywoodʼs seedier cousin, the adult film industry.
	29	+>Perhaps weʼd prefer to pretend that the ʻtriple-exthnicsʼ didnʼt exist, but thereʼs no
	30	+>getting away from the fact that secular Jews have played (and still continue to play) a
	31	+>disproportionate role throughout the adult film industry in America. Jewish involvement
	32	+>in pornography has a long history in the United States, as Jews have helped to
	33	+>transform a fringe subculture into what has become a primary constituent of Americana.

31		-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]]. We have made available the full article, which was published in [[Jewish Quarterly,>>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Jewish_Quarterly]] so this isn't some inferred conspiracy, this is straight from Jewish voices themselves. First lets go into who some of the heavy hitters were.
34	34
	40	+* [[Reuben Sturman:>>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reuben_Sturman]] The ʻWalt Disney of Pornʼ, he controlled most of the pornography in circulation. Was said he WAS the industry.
	41	+* Steven Hirsch: The 'Donald Trump of Porn', runs [[Vivid Entertainment>>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vivid_Entertainment]]
	42	+* Greg Lansky: Founder of [[Vixen Entertainment>>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vixen_Media_Group]], which owns Blacked, the most popular interracial studio in existence. (Greg is not mentioned in the article but worth including) {{footnote}}Greg Lansky, Available at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greg_Lansky{{/footnote}}
	43	+* Most of the male actors were Jewish, including Ron Jeremy and Seymore Butts
	44	+* Most of the female talent was Roman Catholic White girls.
	45	+* Publications also had Jewish involvement, for example [[Al Goldstein>>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Goldstein]], owner of [[SCREW>>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_(magazine)#cite_note-Jewniverse-1]] magazine, known for its raunchy, obnoxious, usually disgusting and sometimes political  content. {{footnote}}Davis, Marc (November 18, 2013). "The Screw-y, Filthy World of Al Goldstein". Jewniverse. Retrieved November 20, 2014. https://www.jta.org/jewniverse/2013/the-screw-y-filthy-world-of-al-goldstein{{/footnote}}

	49	+Some of the more interesting quotes are as follow:
	50	+
	51	+>Very few, if any, porn films have overtly Jewish themes....  Indeed, according to an editorial on the World Union of Jewish Students website, "there are thousands of people searching for Jewish porn. After things like Jewish
	52	+>calendar, Jewish singles, Jewish dating, and Jewish festivals comes ʻJewish pornʼ in the
	53	+>list of top search keywords that GoTo.com provide".
	54	+
	55	+Considering the demand
	56	+
	57	+
35	35	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.
