Linda Syndrome is a phrase used largely within the pornography community to describe adult film stars who seek acceptance in society by repudiating their past career.
The term was coined by Hart Williams, who also refers to it as "Conversion Syndrome" or "Paul of Tarsus On The Road To Damascus" (a biblical reference)
Linda Syndrome is named after porn star Linda Lovelace (Linda Boreman) of the porn cult classic, Deep Throat, who began attacking the industry and espousing alleged wrongs against it via biographies and lectures. Boreman gave testimony to the 1986 U.S. Congressional hearings known as the Meese Commission on Pornography during the Ronald Reagan era.
