"Somebody's Daughter": A Song To Remind You Of Why Porn Is Bad

thumbnail icon: "Somebody's Daughter": A Song To Remind You Of Why Porn Is Bad

An organization called Somebodysdaughter.org, in the attempt to attack pornography from the demand side, made this handy song and music video to help men remember that the exotic dancers, pinups, playmates, and internet porn ladies they can't seem to resist otherwise are "Somebody's daughter, somebody's child, somebody's pride and joy. Heaven's own precious child, a person full of worth and dignity." Apparently this knowledge takes all the fun out of porn. It's creepy because there sure are a lot of little girls in it, and because it's a song that actually exists. (Like, does anyone listen to this in their car? "Let's rock out to 'Somebody's Daughter'!")

Somebody's daughter had kind of shitty parents, huh?

I just love it when these religulous idiots forget to hide their transparent misogyny. Somebody's daughter? What about the somebody's son who's blowing his load all over her face?

I also love that these women have no value in and of themselves: we should only stop and feel guilty because they belong to someone.

See, this is why I'm so adamant about cloning becoming common practice. Then we could just have clone porn with no parents to make us feel guilty. Jk...?

If anyone is going to be digging up in someone's kidneys on film, it's going to be me. Not some android/clone version of me.

Besides if you haven't seen Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey you would know that robot clones are always up to noooo good.

Hey, those letter, numeral and symbol keys are somebody's daughter, perv. But seriously, while it's important to acknowledge the myriad ethical and moral quandaries in the porn industry as a whole, this song isn't the way to do it. Actually, ironically, all I could think about after reading the title of this song was the use of Jackson Browne's "Somebody's Baby" in Fast Times at Ridgemont High, right before Jennifer Jason Leigh has disgusting first-time sex with a sleazebag in the dugout. Then, my thoughts naturally progressed to Phoebe Cates getting out of the pool. Then I wondered why I was having my older brother's masturbation fantasies. So, "Somebody's Daughter" kinda failed in its intent with me.

At about :45 in, after the "lipstick and rouge" part he sings, "she's become a lady overnight.." But I heard, "she's become a lady OF the night"... I think either way works for this song. Maybe somebody's daughter is making poor life choices?

It's disingenuous to transpose images of young children at play with images of porno girls. Anything compared to childhood is a betrayal of youth. If you put together a sad-song montage of me as a child versus me sitting here in this office at a desk having my soul slowly ground into chalk, well, then I too am a victim of porno.

Did he drive to someone else's house to use porn, and then finally decide to drive home to his own house to be with his daughter? It's like they wanted the imagery of him driving home and her waking up and seeing him, but they ALSO wanted porn to be one of the things he did first. Continuity!

You know, my guess is that if a girl is a stripper or in porn... then she's probably lost contact with her parents long ago. Either that or they're so ashamed they've disowned her. So yeah, she's somebody's daughter, but isn't that just sort of hot?
