And porn stars are involved in abuse and drugs. People involved in porn are not happy doing what they are doing. They do it because they are abused/forced into it or feel compelled because of desperate financial reasons. Women are objectified in those businesses. That’s why it’s important that we don’t support such things.

Exactly how many porn actors and actresses have you personally spoken to.

Not true in the absolute least. I know people who create adult content and are totally well adjusted, happy people. They also are not involved in abuse and drugs. I am about to get into that field myself and I'm not forced into it. And I'm not compelled because of desperate financial issues. I just want to do this. I am creative and have always had an interest in that side of things. Among others. I can't speak on women being objectified in this business. But I will ask you this: Why women? Are you saying that men can't objectified in this business? If so, that sort of negates your whole post. It also comes off a bit sexist. But I may be reading more than what's there.

I suggest you watch the film “Pleasure” which is currently on sale for $5 on iTunes now. It gives you a nice look at what exactly is behind the porn industry.

Please answer my question: How many people in the porn industry have you spoken to personally? While you're at it, is pleasure a movie or a documentary?

I’m not going to answer questions like that as it will require me to list names of porn stars along with links to possible NSFW websites. It’s going to get me in trouble and that’s what you’re trying to do, and I will not give you the satisfaction for that. You can easily google it and you will get many results. On top of that, it only takes a little common sense to know why porn is corrupt and harmful.

And that’s all I will say on this and I shall depart from this thread now. Have a good rest of the day!

Pleasure is a naughty movie.

To answer the question requires only a number. No websites, no names. Just a number. No trouble. You also didn't answer my second question.

My guess is that this is why you made excuses instead of answering.

1. You've personally spoken to nobody in the industry.
2. Pleasure is a movie. This means it a work of fiction.

This means that your claims are nothing more than your opinion, even though you say they are facts.

I know quite a bit about what goes on behind the scenes in the adult entertainment industry. I've been following it for 27 years or more now. I'd wager a guess that I have more insight about it than you may have. As for the movie you mentioned, it stars many prominent adult film stars and directors. One such actor Lance Hart, who started his own company, regrets being in the film because he felt duped. He was told the movie wasn't going to make him and the industry look bad. What ended up on film was a hit piece.

Which is odd as the director herself, Thyberg, had started mentioning that the movie was part of her “journey” from being “an anti-porn activist” to realizing models and others in the adult industry were people, too. That last part was from a simple Google search. Now, none of this is a "gang-up" or meant to be any sort of attack. We're just simply countering with what is a larger truth. Sure, what you said is true. But it is not true for EVERYONE in that industry.

And you neglect to mention all the good the adult industry has done. Back when porn started out (60's, 70's, 80's, and 90's), there was no representation whatsoever for
[Show spoiler]gay
people. Kids in the midwest and other places where that was a limited thing for them were able to see themselves reflected in those magazines and videos. I recommend watching the documentary Seed Money. It's all about Chuck Holmes, the founding of Falcon, his impact on the community in a larger sense, and a lot of good that he did behind the scenes. This is something I am very passionate about for a number of reasons. Which is why I am well versed in this.

I won't go over all the crap I posted already, but I have gave up on adultwork.com, likely forever. I'm just tired of all the nonsense.

You get women that show some enthusiasm at first, in a 'too good to be true - surely it must be lies' kind of way, then something seems to change, even after you got your hopes up. It's all games and prick teasing. Mainly just comes down to how pretentious they are, I think. Although they won't mind having all your cash through other means, and receiving gifts on Throne. But screw your feelings and you as a person.

On a similar note, screw FedEx. They are leeches as well. I was supposed to get a Blu-ray one day. I wasn't in and they made out it was signed for. But having looked at complaints on Reddit from people who say companies uses them a lot, it's definitely very common for these lazy couriers to say they were at your door, when people's security equipment can prove otherwise. They even have the nerve to leave expensive items on a person's driveway, for anyone to easily steal.

1. A white woman from an online ad who came to my (old) apartment, last June. Provided a bad service, which taught me a lot about how to look.

2 and 3. Two Koreans in dimly lit apartments through agencies almost a year apart. Won't do Korean agencies ever again (and probably not Asians either). Too much plastic surgery, fake pictures, big language barrier, bodies too small.

4. A Russian, my height, whom I've seen twice in the last thirty days. I'm 37, she's 35, a mother of two. I like her, plan to see her again eventually, but because I waited too long to become sexually active I have a hard time adequately enjoying the act.

Next week I will see a dominatrix in a commercial dungeon. She appreciated that I was very descriptive (shameless) in my application. After the application, emails and phone call screening today, the Finish 2019 movie Dogs Don't Wear Pants seems soooo fake, faker than it already seemed before. Dogs Don't Wear Pants and the 1975 French movie Maitresse, annoyingly, have tourist protagonists, men who happen to run into the dominatrices at work through ridiculous luck. Neither of them actually submissive or masochistic, like the directors think it's beneath them to tell a story about a real hobbyist because such men are too disgusting.
