Chloe Cherry Needs To Understand Her Priviledge.
Emrata’s recent podcast interview with Chloe Cherry enraged me — her entitled nature made me cringe.
I’m a big podcast listener, I used to only listen to physical health, nutrition, mental health and psychology podcasts but I’ve evolved into some celebrity podcasts as well. I have never followed Emily Ratajkowski, but read her book and listened to an interview with her and took a liking to her.
I didn’t find her book groundbreaking, but I really enjoy her podcast. I find her inclusive, down to earth, smart with her questions and I like how open she is to hearing both sides of an argument (unlike most people these days).
I’ve liked every episode and guest she has had on so far — until Chloe Cherry came on — and no, not because I’m anti porn!
I felt this was the first episode where not only did I have a negative response to it, but I felt it was just negative in general — and I’m not going to lie — I got pretty heated about it…
Maybe it’s because my best friend is a sex worker and is a black woman and her experience has been incredibly different. I wish ethnicity and body type was touched on in this episode — she’s a young white female in a small body. She doesn’t seem to understand her privilege at all. Every time she spoke (and cut off Emrata) she sounded entitled, unapologetic, self centered and incredibly unempathetic.
