'We're not objects': Transgender porn stars detail the discrimination they face working in the adult film industry, as they claim most people still see them as just a 'fetish'

'We're not objects': Transgender porn stars detail the discrimination they face working in the adult film industry, as they claim most people still see them as just a 'fetish' 






  • According to a recent Human Rights Campaign report at least 21 people, almost all transgender women of color, have been murdered in the US during the first ten months of 2015. 
    When asked about derogatory terms like 'she-male' and 'tranny' being used to promote films staring transgender women, Chelsea revealed that she is receiving backlash from mainstream porn companies because she is openly challenging the use of those words as a marketing ploy that is 'essentially exploiting the community'.  
    'I still have friends who are being attacked and killed and having those same words screamed at them while they're being murdered,' she explained. 'So when people say, "Oh those words just exist in porn," that's bulls*** because porn doesn't exist in a vacuum.' 
    However, Morgan and Foxxy, who are older than Chelsea, said they are more forgiving of the terms when the are being used in the adult film industry. 
    Morgan explained that although she respects younger stars feminist views, she knows that there is no avoiding the fact that these types of labels are what makes films sell. 
    'When I first started doing porn I hated the word "she-male". But that's how you market yourself,' she said. 'If that's a tagline you have to throw on to make something sell, then that's what you have to do.'
