Are people just thick?

Keep seeing posts about how clever she is or how she’s a marketing genius.
But is she?
Does it really take a genius to work out if you say or do controversial things, people will talk/share posts about it.

Does my bloody nut in!

Or pop up online as a trad wife or politician maybe. Grin

They used to say the same about Katie Price. That didn’t age well and I guess time will tell on the mark 2 version.

She’s made a lot of money… but she says she can’t leave the house in case she’s attacked. Who is winning?

Certainly not society, who feel that attacking someone who doesn't behave the same way they feel are acceptable.

Honestly, why does someone using their body how they want cause so much upset?

I'm sure she'll be able to leave the house again. Things die down, people move on.

Because she smashes through every taboo when she sees an opportunity to make money by it, and doesn't regard the collateral damage as any responsibility of hers. She's emblematic of a culture where everything should be for sale and everything about yourself should be marketed and the weak can go to the wall. No one is exploiting her: she's the predator, not the prey.

I do think that blue themed picture of her will become a classic, like Christine Keeler on the chair.

What collateral damage? People are free to make their own choices, she's under no obligation to guard the hearts and minds of others. She sees a way to make money and people are willing to give it to her, why wouldn't she be free to do that?

Listening to her speak, she does not strike me as particularly clever. People used to say Katie Price was a clever businesswoman too. It's not clever to understand that you can make money from selling sex. I don't think Bonnie Blue is motivated by marketing genius, I think she's got a personality disorder and likes attention and money. Maybe she's clever enough to get some sound financial investments and secure her financial future.

I don't understand the hatred really. She's controversial, sure - and I certainly wouldn't do what she does. But I really don't understand why anyone cares why she does with her own body. Genuinely, the vitriol on this little thread alone is so interesting. This isn't the puritan age, but her behaviour seems to genuinely anger some people.

And she's made a lot of money. Good for her I guess?

She comes across very unpleasantly, in the things she says about other women. I'm sure it's primarily for shock value but she has said some very vile things.

What is the extreme thing that she banned from OF for? Not even google will tell me!

She was planning to get in a box or cage or something for 24 hours and encouraged men to come and do 'anything' no limits - basically encouraging men to come and abuse her. The scenario sounded horrific and well outside the bounds of OF type content.

SwatTheTwit · Yesterday 05:42

She’s a rage baiter and people keep giving into it.

For me the better course of action would be to not give her any attention at all.

I think she must have got this idea from the performance artist Marina Abramovic who put a bunch of objects on a table and invited the audience to do anything to her. The whole situation became violent and her clothes were cut off with razors and she was injured.

Bringemout · Yesterday 07:10

I feel really sorry for her, she seems deeply damaged. Nothing to do with whether she’s clever or not (I have no idea either way) but it feels like self harm to me.

is she really pregnant? there was questions about whether it was true or not. she put out a social media picture of her kneeling by a toilet so called morning sickness. hmm she did not look like she had morning sickness if she did she would not be laughing and letting camera's film her.
she is disgusting to be frank was it one of those 100 or so men she slept with is the father of the baby if it exists

She’s not pregnant it was a PR stunt.

Secretseverywhere · Yesterday 07:30

I think that there are lots of women with mental health issues who are involved in sex work and not making a fraction of her income. So from thst perspective she’s successful at marketing. The whole thing is just so grim though I suspect she will die relatively young suicide/ substances. I don’t say that with any kind of glee just there seems to be a sad sort of inevitablity.

dfitesh6753 · Yesterday 07:33

She’s not clever, she’s just willing to do what most women aren’t so it has catapulted her into the spot light. Anyone can shock and get attention any time if theyre willing to live with the consequences, look at assassins.

I suspect there will be a wave of copycat type people now, but they will struggle more as it’s easier to be the first. I think she’s very beautiful woman, who is very lost.

savoycabbage · Yesterday 07:47

I’m a primary school supply teacher so I’m in different schools all of the time. What I’ve noticed is that a lot of the time, when you put something into the search engine, usually Microsoft edge, be it YouTube mindfulness or numberblocks, Bonnie blue comes up as a suggestion the bar. The first time I noticed it I assumed it was because someone had googled it from that specific computer but it’s happened to me about twenty times now.

Riapia · Yesterday 07:47

Well she has now achieved the feat of having women queuing up to give her further attention on MN.
😉😁.

Exactly. She’s capitalising on doing extreme stuff. It’s disturbing though. She and lots of other sex workers make the mistake of doing it as they’re empowered, think they’re clever, it pays for them to go through uni. Whereas if anyone found out most likely they’d be judged. That’s just the way of the world.

Yoko Ono did a version of it, too, letting people cut off her clothes with scissors, starting in the early 60s (I think she repeated it several times).

But I'd be very surprised if Bonnie Blue was getting her inspiration from feminist performance art by anyone.

Snaletrale · Yesterday 09:04

I don’t think what she does is good at all but she’s made an huge amount of money from it. Given she’s money motivated and she’s successfully marketed herself and appears quite business savvy, then yes i’d say she’s quite clever.

No, she not clever. I find her very sad, to be honest. Along with the men who take up her offers.

Colscar · Yesterday 10:06

I class someone with a PhD as clever. Or a member of Mensa. Not really someone who does porn. If you were clever enough, you’d see that it’s damaging in the long run, to everyone involved.

She may be rich but she’s not my definition of ‘clever’.

Sadly, many porn actresses do die from suicide. Nobody seems to care though, or there’s an element of ‘they brought it on themselves’ which is sad.

I think she's mentally ill and self-harming on a massive scale.

Yes, I agree there is something not quite right with her.

she has a very dead behind the eyes look.

I also don’t think she is clever. I think she has just used shock value to gain a lot of visibility and she has managed to monetise it.

She has made a huge amount of money and if she managed it cleverly she would never have to “work” again.

But she continues to prostitute herself because she says she enjoys it. I can’t wrap my head around that.

I haven’t heard anything about a baby, surely she is not pregnant?

Agree with the previous posters. Bonnie Blue is just holding a mirror up to men.

There's only one of her. Only one woman who wants to publicly do these extreme sex acts. But there are literally thousands of men who put on their balaclavas and queued down the street for an opportunity to be her 852nd shag of the day.

Yet somehow all the outrage and articles are about how disgusting and shameful she is, rather than how revolting all those men are. There's 1000x more men involved in the exact same act - why is Bonnie getting all the shaming?

Just because it’s shocking, I think.

Most people are well aware how disgusting men are. But women generally aren’t like that.

For the same reason it would play out very differently if I man was trying to do what Bonnie does. It just wouldn’t work becuase you wouldn’t get 1000s of women lining the streets in balaclavas desperate for a quick shag with a random guy.
