Ukrainian porn star raises funds for war amputees

The adult celebrity is a “patriot of her country,” said one of the amputees who took part in a flirty photo shoot.

Yulia Senyuk is more famous under her stage name Josephine Jackson — where her porn appearances have garnered over 200 million views — and now she’s using that celebrity status to raise funds for Ukrainian soldiers who lost limbs in the war against Russia.

“Porn actress rehabilitates the military. Wow!” Senyuk told POLITICO. “We wanted to draw attention to the problem of rehabilitation after injuries. Because a lot of people collect for drones, but forget about prosthetics. I think I managed to attract attention because more people started collecting donations for prosthetics.”

The 29-year-old resident of Lviv in western Ukraine became an ambassador for Tytanovi Rehab, a media initiative of a Kyiv clinic involved in the rehabilitation of more than 30 Ukrainian military amputees.

Senyuk took part in two photo shoots with Ukrainian war amputees, aimed at drawing attention to the lack of financing for prosthetics — a key need for thousands of Ukrainians who have lost limbs in the Russian invasion.

Zip2,

Brings a whole new meaning to giving someone a hand job.

“Thanks to her media persona, Yulia helped to draw attention to the problems of seriously injured people. She organized a donation campaign. Unfortunately, state programs cannot provide good prosthetics,” Ivantsiv told POLITICO. “As for the content she produces, I don’t care. It’s a media product, you can choose whether to consume it. Yulia is Ukrainian and a patriot of her country.”

Senyuk was attacked on social media by conservatives for the “immorality of her profession” and “trying to PR on soldiers” as well as the “objectification of a woman’s role” at war; it’s illegal to make pornography in Ukraine, which is why Senyuk works abroad.

Of course conservatives have their panties in a bunch over a fucking fundraiser. Also TIL making porn is illegal in Ukraine

postmateDumbass,

Talk about taking one for the nation.

Again. And again. And again. And …

Muscar,

Taking several for the nation!

fne8w2ah,

Exactly why “conservatives” are dumb as rocks.

There are a lot of things illegal in Ukraine that are weird. One is dual citizenship; I guess it was specifically targetting Russia, to make it so you can’t be a Ukrainian citizen if you’re a Russian citizen, which makes sense. But it’s been making matters complicated for Ukraine (especially recently with all the Ukrainian refugees in Europe who may have children with EU citizens or gain EU citizenship)

I have an Italian friend who has Ukrainian citizenship from their mother, right now they (and their mother) technically hold citizenship illegally according to Ukrainian law. They had been spending a lot of time trying to sort that stuff out with the Ukrainian embassy until the latest invasion started (the embassies became a bit occupied with more urgent matters)

noobdoomguy8658,

There are a lot of things illegal in Ukraine that are weird. One is dual citizenship;

Ukraine is, unfortunately, hardly a special case in that regard.

Looking at the most “powerful” passports around the world, you’ll see that most of them tend to follow the same restriction, although some more exceptions, whether perfectly legal or just people being more laid-back.

I have no idea since when the same restriction is in place for the Ukrainian passport, but it would make sense to me if they imposed it after deciding to join the EU. Maybe without it, there would be a greater number of people potentially reaping the benefits of holding a member passport without having to contribute much?

I’m just grasping straws here, really.

LongaliveStalin,

Laughing so hard lol

BigMikeInAustin,

US Texas Governor Greg Abbott would like to block these videos from appearing in Texas unless a viewer sends over a copy of their state government documents. Texas Freedum!

Cethin,

We need to remember it’s not just Texas doing this. All conservatives are trying to do it. We have the same block in Virginia, and I believe Florida and other places.

Also weed is practically illegal in VA because we elected Republicans despite Democrats legalizing it and Republicans saying they wouldn’t block it. They were obviously lying, but no lessons were learned by those who needed to learn a lesson. Possession was luckily made legal under Democrats, but the requirements needed to sell it were blocked so there’s no legal method to obtain it besides growing it yourself.

Reverendender,

I did not know she was Ukranian. Because of course I do not know who she is and am completely unaware of the context of any this.

xmunk,

Did reading this news article inform you of the context for this news article? Usually that’s how it works for me.

Reverendender,

24 people apparently ‘whooshed’ on this one, plus xmunk

thefartographer,

The new, “I just look at it for the articles.” What kind of articles could they possibly have on pornhub??? No, seriously, I’m in Texas. I can’t access pornhub.

TexasDrunk,

I wonder what that’s like…

DarkThoughts,

I don't know if I should feel weird how everyone seemingly knows all the professional porn actresses. I may can identify a couple of the very big ones, simply because of how present they are even on social media but it's almost like a lot of people are walking lexicons for this topic.

WhatAmLemmy,

I for one am shocked that so many people watch porn

DarkThoughts,

How is that shocking to you? lol

Gotta give her some credit for going mostly without or just very light make-up too.

DancingBear,

Thanks for posting this so I can block the site.

All people who think porn is bad are bad. They are projecting their own unhealthy suppressed sexualities onto others because of the shame they associate with their own sexuality

– DancingBear, 7 days ago

Thus I am concluding you are pro Russian and taking all opportunities to block all porn starring Ukranians. Which will be basically every site on the internet. A pity, since you seem to like it a lot.

ThirdWorldOrder,

Woosh

Damn bro got quoted.

Mr_Blott,

Did it occur to you that it might be a satirical comment?

troyunrau,
@troyunrau@lemmy.ca avatar

Not after reading their comment history.

DancingBear,

lol what?

That comment was about how porn addiction is not a real addiction but people who have porn issues have more issues with their religious beliefs than they do with porn.

I love it. Keep downvoting, people are weird

aidan,

Porn addiction definitely is a real addiction seeing as there are plenty of non-religious people and people of various religions who prefer to actually be able to live their life rather than be horny all the time.

YarHarSuperstar,
@YarHarSuperstar@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah wtf? That’s the explanation and some people are up voting it?

DancingBear,

I think being horny all the time is part of the human condition.

aidan,

Not for many people

DancingBear,

There are always exceptions for sure.

aidan,

If there are tens of millions of exceptions I wouldn’t call it part of the human condition

DancingBear, (edited )

No it’s not. I am not an expert, but porn addiction is not a recognized diagnosis. According to research the main thing people with so called porn addiction share is a feeling that the behavior they are engaging in js immoral or unhealthy. The morality conflict is in the mind is the issue.

Masturbation is healthy and good for the body. To solve the morality issue either stop masturbating or accept your behavior.

Basically, as I understand it. Porn addiction is not a real addiction because there is no correlation between the amount of porn consumed and the feeling that one is addicted.

But there is a correlation between people who feel they have porn addiction and the amount of religiosity they have or believe in, regardless of the amount of porn they consume.

It’s a difficult subject to talk about because of the strong feelings and morality issues that people feel are real.

But (edited: respect to) your religion. Masturbation is healthy and good, and porn is not going anywhere regardless of how you or your religion feel about it morally. Porn addiction is a made up thing by people who feel bad about masturbating.

aidan,

I am not an expert, but porn addiction is not a recognized diagnosis.

The DSM doesn’t determine the truth. It is just an arbitrary grouping of symptoms in a book.

According to research the main thing people with so called porn addiction share is a feeling that the behavior they are engaging in js immoral or unhealthy.

Unhealthy doesn’t mean just physically. Porn can definitely be mentally unhealthy.

Masturbation is healthy and good for the body.

Water is healthy and good for the body, drowning is not.

Porn addiction is not a real addiction because there is no correlation between the amount of porn consumed and the feeling that one is addicted.

What? How does that not make something an addiction. First of all, because someone could have misconceptions about how much others consume, someone could think wanting to eat a candy bar every day makes them addicted to sugar, while someone else could crave and drink 3 2Ls a day and think they’re not addicted. And second, yeah, because addiction is based not on quantity but on impact. Someone could be healthy and drink a few glasses of wine every day, someone else could be unemployed and pawn their child’s bed to buy wine to drink those few glasses. One of those at least indicates an addiction.

But there is a correlation between people who feel they have porn addiction and the amount of religiosity they have or believe in, regardless of the amount of porn they consume.

Again, there are a not of non-religious people who feel they are addicted to porn.

But (edited: respect to) your religion. Masturbation is healthy and good, and porn is not going anywhere regardless of how you or your religion feel about it morally. Porn addiction is a made up thing by people who feel bad about masturbating.

I am a gay agnostic. I prefer to spend time with my partner rather than waiting for him to fall asleep and looking at porn. I prefer to spend time with my parents when I visit them rather than staying in bed for hours after I wake up looking at porn.

DancingBear,

Sure thing , I already looked up her up on google image search so I can recognize her so I know which sites to block.

He’s probably raising the stars and stripes, or something like that.

Cethin,

It’s really old and i can’t remember what he’s doing. My guess is he’s raising a flag where the pole has a crank to raise/lower flags the lip lick really sells this though.

ArmyTiger,

He was a part of a group holding a large American flag at midfield, I think for a Giants game. He’s holding it at his waist and it’s flapping in the wind.

Based veteran. It’s amazing how easy it is to mind your business

sdcSpade,

Minding your business is one thing, the other is porn being illegal in Ukraine. But let this be the first step towards rectifying that in the next era.

Gabu,

Is it illegal, or only illegal to make?

sdcSpade,

Wikipedia says:

“The possession, distribution, sale and manufacture of pornographic materials are illegal, with laws strictly enforced. Possession of pornographic material can carry a fine or up to three years imprisonment.”

Gabu,

That’s rather silly indeed, in the words of the late comedic genius Graham Chapman.

DarkThoughts,

Probably one of those old Russian time laws that eventually get removed when they find the time to get to it.

Diplomjodler,

But it makes Baby Jesus cry if you do the deed without an old man in a dress having mumbled some magic words!

fluxion,

Imagine hating porn stars more than hating Ukrainian amputees not having access to prosthetics

HikingVet,

Moral panic is a hell of a brain worm.

postmateDumbass,

Almost like culture is based on a book full of God trauma gaslighting like a mf…

Ilsunny,

Imagine that pornstars are actually defending state welfare while old crook politicians steal your taxes and stash them in foreign accounts.
