Really? Really??

I don't know where to start with that appalling comparison. It's just plain offensive. And wrong.

I mean you often look at people & think "I wonder why they are / how they got where they are / why they have the attitude they have?"

And then they start on their backstory & you go "OK, there it is"

So porn stars for example tend to go "well my uncle touched me a lot" (Jenna Jamiesons backstory is grim as feck). And its explain a lot re how they got into the business.

And a hugely chip on shoulder, rage against everyone, everyone is wrong except him, must be published & heard writer came from no money, grew up poor, didn't have a telly, was put up for adoption & never knew why & has been unable to track down his birth mother & it rankles him.

I wasn't actually directly comparing the adopted or those raised on welfare to porn stars.

No - your comparison was Rattue writes contentious, sometimes bitter articles due to his poverty-led and adoptive upbringing in the same way that porn stars in general perform 'triple anal' today because they were sexually molested as children.

Oh yeah, 100%. Sorry if that offends obv.. but you are right, thats my contention.

Was intrigued by your theory/hpothesis/contention and found this:

Hint: It has nothing to do with a history of sexual abuse.

The Main Difference Between Porn Actresses and Other Women The Main Difference Between Porn Actresses and Other Women

Hint: It has nothing to do with a history of sexual trauma.
