Definitely. Roth's comments about breaking the fourth wall and empowerment and all rang hollow to me because in the end, he benefitted the most from it. I'm sure people who participated in the shenanigans enjoyed it, but I question his sincerity when he blabs on about how much he loves ONTD and all of that. I mean, getting sent nudes is no big deal for him, as he's just going to forget about them, make Hostel 3 and have more fangirls contacting him. For every woman who doesn't mind doing such things and has a bit of fun with it, there's going to be a young girl who finds the experience to be more thrilling and exciting than it is for Roth, because it's a pretty run-of-the-mill occurrence for him. At the end of the day he's not going to give a shit about any of them and all that's left is used tissues. I suppose I took the long-winded way to say that I find it depressing to become mere wanking material that will be all too quickly discarded. There are plenty of people who don't mind, but it bums me out.

I have however, come across some savvy groupies. Many of them end up having the last laugh because years later, they're living what could be considered mundane/suburban lives while the rockstars they were involved with end up washed up (I'm particularly intrigued by the hairband/Sunset Strip scene, where such a scenario is common).

I'm the same way with hands, too. I end up attracted to artists/delicately built men and women because I find their hands to be the loveliest (and generally, if they have nice hands, they have the feet to match).
