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.

“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.”
Based veteran. It’s amazing how easy it is to mind your business
Imagine hating porn stars more than hating Ukrainian amputees not having access to prosthetics
Moral panic is a hell of a brain worm.
Almost like culture is based on a book full of God trauma gaslighting like a mf…
Imagine that pornstars are actually defending state welfare while old crook politicians steal your taxes and stash them in foreign accounts.
But it makes Baby Jesus cry if you do the deed without an old man in a dress having mumbled some magic words!
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.
Is it illegal, or only illegal to make?
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.”
That’s rather silly indeed, in the words of the late comedic genius Graham Chapman.
Probably one of those old Russian time laws that eventually get removed when they find the time to get to it.
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
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)

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.
Exactly why “conservatives” are dumb as rocks.
Talk about taking one for the nation.
Again. And again. And again. And …
TRY NOT TO TAKE ANY FOR THE NATION ON YOUR WAY THROUGH THE PARKING LOT
Taking several for the nation!
Thanks, saved for later.
I’m doing my part, for the troops 🫡
You’re a true hero!
What can I say 🤷♂️
I’m just a man, with a penis, changing the world one load at a time
Please give some context for my new favorite gif
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.
Not sure if there is a better version, but it’s from this jets vs patriots game: YouTube
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.
He’s probably raising the stars and stripes, or something like that.
NSFW, but the next obvious thing to do is…
Thanks, I will go out of my way to avoid this link once I get home.
She’s apparently on Reddit too: https://old.reddit.com/user/Josephine_jackson/ Gotta give her some credit for going mostly without or just very light make-up too.

I’ll be over later tonight and we can help each other block the site. I’m tired of sitting on my left hand before blocking all these sites.

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

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.

Did it occur to you that it might be a satirical comment?
Not after reading their comment history.

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.

Honestly, good for her; that’s fucking awesome.
She went from awesome fucking to fucking awesome. Quite the character arc!
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.
Did reading this news article inform you of the context for this news article? Usually that’s how it works for me.
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.
I wonder what that’s like…
24 people apparently ‘whooshed’ on this one, plus xmunk
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.
I for one am shocked that so many people watch porn
How is that shocking to you? lol
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!
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.
Based and yet another proof against chuds who think less of sex workers.
I think she… raises some other things as well, if you catch my drift!
I… I’ll show myself out.
nervously flips through notes
It umm … It’s nice she’s giving them some helping hand, am I right?
sweats
Boebert is actually a Ukrainian patriot??
Brings a whole new meaning to giving someone a hand job.
If only she had a bush 🚜
This is the best summary I could come up with:
KYIV — 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.
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.
Kyiv intentionally does not disclose how many people need prosthetics, Oksana Zholnovych, the social policy minister, told Ukrainian media.
This year, more than 4.5 billion hryvnia (€111 million) have been allocated for rehabilitation aid, and there is no need to collect money for those who need prosthetics, said Olena Kulchytska, an adviser to Zholnovych.
So when in February Senyuk’s friend came up with the idea of using her notoriety to create a buzz for the prosthetic center in Kyiv, she agreed.
Anton Ivantsiv, who lost both hands and a leg in the battle for Bakhmut, took part in the photo shoot and defended the actress.
