LOS ANGELES — ManyVids CEO Bella French responded today to recent efforts to ban pornography on Ivy League campuses with an offer for free student memberships.
ManyVids is offering current Princeton and Harvard University students a free, three-month membership.
French decided on the free-membership promotion in the wake of ongoing debates taking place at university campuses attempting to impose bans on porn.
The cam girl-turned-CEO said that ManyVids wants to remind educational institutions that “not all porn is created equal, and that censorship of any kind rarely has a happy ending.”
“ManyVids continues to be at the forefront of the industry, where porn stars and cam models can be sexually free, and for anyone coming to our platform for a pleasurable experience, talks of censorship poses a major threat to personal freedom within the adult ecosystem,” she said.
French said she hopes her pro-porn advocacy will help remove perceived barriers on erotic culture and introduce a new audience to adult entertainment made ethically, “where the content creators are empowered to be successful entrepreneurs in full command of their craft, the impetus behind ManyVids.com.”
For the promotion offering free unlimited membership, current students can simply send an email to nocensorship@manyvids.com, with a picture of themselves holding a valid, current student ID plus proof of legal age.
