Women in porn... What do you think?

[Tommyboy]

I don't get why a lot of people are saying that the women in porn are good looking and are just capitalizing their looks. I find most of the women in porn to be average looking, with only a handful of them being very good looking. It seems that the only way to make it is to either be one of the very good looking actresses, be one who has a unique look or quality, or to do stuff that is in high demand.

It seems that this day in age if you aren't extremely good looking you have to be willing to do double penetration, gangbangs, ass to mouth, and take a huge black dick if you expect to last in the biz. The girls that just have regular sex (meaning the common videos that go from missionary style to cowgirl to reverse cowgirl to doggy style to cumshot) only make a few videos before their career is over, so that's why they turn to doing the more degrading stuff to extend their career.

To those who were discussing whether girls that go into porn have issues, this clip on the Tyra Banks show says that research has shown that most girls that go into porn have been sexually abused. Also, others have mentioned that substance abuse plays a large part in it, so I don't think that it can be disputed.

I'm not talking down on all girls that do porn because I think that most of them get sucked into it after doing their first scene. Once it becomes known that they have done porn their career choices may be limited, so they are stuck doing more videos as a means to make their money.

being pro-sex and pro empowerment of
female porn stars doesn't need to mean
pretending rape culture isn't a thing.

What exactly is rape culture? I'm not sure how me pointing a Benelli m4 super 90 at a rapist, telling him "On the ground now! Don't move, don't even breathe" and bringing him to a cage counts as a culture that encourages or endorses rape.

I think a lot of women in porn see no better way to achieve big because they see achieving big in terms of earning lots of cash.

A lot of women are trafficked, a lot of women are drug fucked, and some women are just nymphos.

Personally most are doing it wrong - but hey, we all have our karma - who am I to judge, I am just here to help.

I had a friend who did porn online. I don't know if I want to say the site, but it's where they pay the girls to live in a house, and then they pay them more to go to bars and basically get the bar popular by dancing on tables and stuff (not stripping...just kinda like crazy drunk girls lol).

I loved her to death and I don't think she felt degraded. However, she was really ashamed of it and didn't want me to tell anyone at work (we worked together) and her fiance knew little about it. She was bisexual and loved sex. The way she described it was that she was drugged most of the time and just had sex not really thinking about it. But once she got older, she knew she had to do something else with herself. She moved to Tampa, but she's married now and probably has kids. She was 4 or 5 years younger than me, so she is probably now this spoiled housewife (the fiance had megacash) and none of the soccer moms have any idea. lol

Here's a decent article which discusses how porn actresses are just as healthy or healthier than women who don't get involved in the sex industry.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/porn-stars-and-the-naked-truth-8348388.html

The psychologists compared data taken from 177 adult entertainment actresses with a sample of women matched for age, marital status and other factors. The actresses, all of whom had been paid to work on at least one X-rated movie, ranged in age from 18 to 50, with an average career in the industry of 3.5 years. More than one-third were either married or in a serious relationship, and 44 per cent were single.

One of the main claims by commentators on the industry has been that actresses have frequently experienced sexual abuse in childhood, but the results show no statistically significant difference between the two groups of women.

I sometimes watch porn with my bf and we both agree the woman are WAY TOO LOUD and FAKE!!! Some of them kind of ruin out with their outbursts, and they just look like they aren't into it, honestly alot of the girls look like they are on drugs if you ask me..... They just have that " God I hope this is over soon ," look on their face and then the ones that don't look drugged are way too dramatic!

 

[nooneanymore]

and then the ones that don't look drugged are way too dramatic!

They're actresses.

i dont like porn where the women are clearly super fucked up but i disagree with the i hope this is over look
you can tell from the eyes... they are only open half way and they look like they are just going with the flow not enjoying per se but not hating it... believe me i have had that facial expression plenty of times

granted i would prob want to be on a massive amount of drugs if i was getting gangbanged by 5 well hung black guys in every orifice too

 

[parachuteantics]

i am a female and i like porn alot
i like bdsm porn where women are dominated
i like gangbang porn
i like where girls are with older men
i like porn where i watch things i would never do in real life... hell i occasionally fantasize about doing porn

i sometimes wonder if there is something "wrong" with me for being into this stuff
i was never abused or anything as a child either... i just like porn thats not too vanilla

^I agree, I am female in the same boat with most of your tastes in porn. I think it depends on the porn and the girl. Some porns are very cheap and you can tell the girl looks kinda used and trashy (no offense here, I know I am sterotyping) and you can tell they don't really like it by their fake moans. There are some girls that get paid a lot of money to get dolled up and act very well according to the sexual encounter and find the money is worth it...it depends on the production team, the porn actress, the porn itself. Sure, I think some girls get into the industry from a bad background but that could be said for a lot of things. How is it okay for porn actors (guys) to not be assumed to have a bad background as well? Some of those dudes look nastier than any of those girls and I am sure they are pumped on viagra and whatever else. Some girls go into porn for the money or maybe the drugs or maybe the possibility of another acting career or maybe they come from a terrible background. Honestly, the possibilties are endless.

And I actually practice some BDSM type sex with my boyfriend. I told him I wanted it and he never did anything like that to a girl. For example, he can smack me or smack with his dick or even face fuck me until I gag but it gets me so wild! It's the idea of a him dominating me: I think it's very instinctal and primative behavior but makes for great sex. That also doesn;t mean I don't appreicate missionary lovey dovey either, it would be so boring if I only liked it a certian way, wouldn't you say? I was never abused and I come from a fairly good background, I work and have a good job, my own car, in an healthy relationship, etc.

I think the idea is the porn industry is like any other really...

i totally agree i love some lovey lovey sex sometimes and some more hardcore stuff othertimes lol
i also introduced my bf to some bdsm stuff
but when i do watch porn i never watch the "tame" stuff there has to be some kind of kink (that i am in to)...

On another note i love the porn industry and a part of me does want to be on camera but another larger and better thought out part of me wants to work behind the scenes.... ideas, marketing, casting, costume etc. etc. etc.
not sure how to get into that part of the industry though
its very easy for a girl to get on camera but i dont even know where to look to apply for an off camera "more white collar" job

 

[the black sun]

iv'e watched porn enough to know that if i was in a porn film i don't think i could make it.
the fact that i have to last forever and make sure i'm doing what i have to do right infront of the camera.
some of the time it's all just a show. the women put on all the sounds to make it more appealing to the audience.
i mean if it is just straight on showmanship then doesn't that beat the whole idea?
i mean women do this knowing it's a job that's all but you can get some really hardcore shit that can be sometimes quite disturbing to watch.
just like everything though you have a lighter side to something and a darker side. the only thing about porn is that it's out there to everyone to watch
and easily seen by millions of people around the world. it all comes down to taste and to the women it is pretty much just a job most of the time.
i gotta think about this a bit more though.
my fav girl at the moment is tessa fowler she's proper cute.

 

[Changed]

I enjoy watching women in porn, and jerking off to porn while I'm alone, but the experience that I see on the screen has nothing to do with reality. Sex is the complete opposite of what I see in porn-- it just so happens that both roads lead to Orgasmville.

It's the girls decision to do porn, I don't care how she got there.

believe me i dont ever watch "vanilla" porn and like i said earlier i love watching certain kinks.... but other stuff is really fucking disturbing even for me

even with bdsm i love that stuff but only to a non permanent harm point-specifically because once that line is crossed its horrifying

and those are the girls i really really feel bad for

 

[rangrz]

^

Agreed. I LOVE bdsm. Both in porn and IRL. But anything that causes permanent harm revolts me. It's illegal BTW. A person can't consent to actual harm/ stuff that would be called aggravated assault. I don't even like stuff with serious suffering. Like stuff that.HURTS for a second and is over is fine, but not stuff that leaves you in pain for a long time.

 

[tackyspiral]

^ sometimes its hard to tell if what they are doing is going to be permanent or not.... (ex. gaping, stretching) - yuk

 

[rangrz]

^That's not realistically going to be permanent. (remember how a big a baby's head is...) I don't find that hot either, but big toys can make for a hot aspect of a scene. I'm sub BTW, and I don't really find hot anything I myself would not be down to do IRL, and I've done/do a lot of bdsm IRL so I know more or less what I'd think is reasonable and fun and what's not. It's easier to inflict suffering than to take it*, and I think a lot people who watch that porn with Dom fantasies forget that.

*Well, not if you love the person. Then you can't stand the thought of genuinely harming them

Well maybe you're watching the wrong porn. If you think it's too loud and fake - maybe watch a different type? Try a different site? Seems like you may prefer the amateur porn instead of professional porn. I personally prefer amateur myself.

I've been in the adult industry for a couple years, I have no relationship problems and my boyfriend fully supports what I do. I also have a day job, I just do online amateur adult work as "extra cash". I could probably make more money if I did more and if I quite my "day job" BUT it isn't as stable, also I love my day job, and also there would be too many difficult questions from friends/family such as "sooo how exactly do you earn that money". I'd prefer for it to just be a bit extra.
All the other web adult models that I know are happy doing amateur porn. Yeah, some use drugs, but we are on BL - are we really opposed to drugs? Some people have drug problems, yeah, but you will find people with drug problems in many other jobs. Some have grown up in abusive homes, but it is not limited to girls in porn.

I would never want to do actual modeling. Why? Too much "you have to look like this" and "you have to do that". I get to set my hours, my time, etc. I am my own boss. Yeah, I have to play by a few rules, but it isn't the same. Sure, I get guys who tell me I'm ugly, whatever, but 99% of the comments are positive. I couldn't stand to be in the actual modeling industry. So yeah, that is why I prefer the adult industry to the professional modeling industry. And why I don't need people "feeling sorry" for me just because I'm in the adult industry. I made the choice.

 

[the black sun]

well vanilla porn can be a bit boring but what beats that is vanilla ice cream and sex. never done it but i'm pretty sure it will be the best thing that i will ever taste in my life!!

 

[GoddessLSD-XTC]

some of it is sad/pathetic and not much more than prostitution. there's one porn site i saw where two middle-aged men (who probably have lotsa money) have sex with pretty, young women.

pornography is considered prostitution in all 50-states except California.
