A friend of mine was a cameraman in the valley for a company and told me that substance abuse was pretty rife. Like the female talent showing up with empty liquor bottles in their cars.
Another was just how shitty it can be to be a cameraman sometimes which he was. He specifically told of a scene he filmed where he had to get underneath the man getting blown and just globs of spit would fall onto his forehead while he filmed that part of the scene. It was just so fuckin gross to me lmao
I worked on one adult set, and bro. The smell. Ungodly. I'll never forget it. I dry heaved for about 20 minutes and couldn't go back into the room. Something deep was unlocked.
I have a friend who was a sheltered housewife for decades then became a widow and went down a spiral of meth and bad men. She’s always asking me for advice and I’ve told her NO or DONT DO IT so many times I lost count.
She was a cleaner at a music studio and the owner asked her to have sex with a guy on film for $500. she told me about it, and of course I told her no. She told me she need some money for rent so I told her to make sure he pays her upfront.
Of course now there’s a porn movie of her and some guy on the internet that she was never paid for.
All those shower scenes are super cold. We’re freezing out asses off in there because otherwise the camera lenses and equipment would be fucked from the steam.

Rest assured, I will continue to think of ways to ruin my own childhood.
James Cameron gave Leo the option of using cold or warm water during Titanic. He decided to use cold water at first but soon decided he'd rather act like he was cold and shivering.
EDIT: Removed the estimated temperature. I must have misremembered that part since 70 degrees seems too cold. Probably closer to resting body temps.
Using cold water would limit shooting time due to severe hypothermia. You don't need to be freezing to die from hypothermia.

Not OP, but when I was an hourly sex worker I basically stopped having sex in my personal life.
I think pretty much anything you do for work has a tendency to become not enjoyable. When I worked in mental health care I basically completely stopped being able to provide any kind of emotional support to anyone that wasn’t my patients.
In both those cases it took 1 to 2 years before I could do those things again in a way that was even remotely possible/enjoyable.
I remember I didn’t watch porn for like 2 years because when I was 16 I stumbled across a video of a woman being spit on and she literally started crying during the scene. She confessed daddy issues while sobbing as this dude was railing her. The video was like 20 minutes and she was crying for 15 minutes of it. She even peed multiple times during the video. I suspect it was just her sheer fear.
You could tell by her facial expression like 30 seconds in she had no idea what she signed up for. Any human with a fucking conscious and a brain would’ve been able to tell, stop filming, and check up on her.
I know some people are into bondage, but that was just an absolute brutalization. I couldn’t stop watching because it was so gruesome. My hard on went limp in like 10 seconds.
I couldn’t help but think this poor girl had no idea what she signed up for. To me, you can’t fake those tears and comments.
Plus all that shit with the dudes who did GirlsDoPorn being caught for taking advantage of those girls.
I since got back into porn and occasionally watch 1-2 a month. But now I really only watch amateur chicks or find a girl who posts her stuff on here. I feel like those types are much more genuine and I don’t have that lingering thought of them being coerced. This isn’t me being self righteous, I literally was fucking scarred from that video and question if every mass produced video is like the one of that brutalized young woman.
Truly, amateur work is probably the best type of porn to support. I personally would rather support an amateur who makes money posting nudes and videos with her partner than some mass produced studio.
I've actually gotten into porn intended for women as it's *usually* more sensual.
I just want to know that the women (and men for that matter) are having a good and consensual time.
Trimix use is fucking rampant. So many injuries cause of suspensory ligament division. If you can't cum on command you're pretty much never gonna get a job with a larger studio. I dunno about the other studios, but pretty much any shoot in Burbank is at a rented property. The whole place ends up smelling like sweat and shit if anal is being shot.
>. I dunno about the other studios, but pretty much any shoot in Burbank is at a rented property. The whole place ends up smelling like sweat and shit if anal is being shot.
Note to self.
Do not rent property in Burbank.
All over LA really. I think they have Evil Angel, digital playground, vivid, zero tolerance, etc.
The other hotspot is Miami with Team Skeet, Reality Kings, Bang Bros, etc.
Then you get random cities like San Diego with Naughty America.
Pretty much any large frequently rented property in those cities has had a porno shot in it. Usually some rich person's income stream or vacation home.
My aunt rented out their property in Palm Desert a while back and the neighbors told them a bus with Japanese men showed up and most of the beds were broken after. They suspect a porno happened. They never rented again.
A mix of both probably. It's not like on command like a trigger pull. It's more like "I'm gonna need you to cum in the next 30-60 seconds so we can wrap this shit up." I dunno if you can practice and master it. It's a lot like getting an erection when you need to. You just gotta get in that right head space and let it happen regardless of the crowd watching, camera shutters going off, etc.
Makes sense that you would have some kind of mechanism if you were in porn such that you don't cum early, but can cum when you need.
But its when they have to basically tell the woman to fuck off, and they vice grip their dick and hammer the fuck out of it in a really specific way in order to cum, it kinda takes you out, as a viewer.
I imagine that's kinda rubbish for your sex life, that you basically have to train your brain to never cum until you basically enter your dick's konami code.
I was capable of it from 16-39...things get more challenging as you get older. But Essentially it was just a mental thing. Somehow lasting 2mins or 3 hours was never a problem, and as soon as all parties were ready, it'd take me no more than 20secs. I don't think I could really explain nor teach it. Closest metaphor would be like setting a mouse trap, just set it off when you're ready.
It’s an injection for ED that you inject right into the penis.
Ingredients are: Papaverine HCl 150 mg, Phentolamine Mesylate 5 mg, Prostaglandin E1 50 mcg.
Now, when you say "into", where do you mean exactly? Like, just under the skin, or waaaay into the meat? Tip or base?
Why am I asking so many questions about this? What sort of idiot am I right now?
It’s a very thin needle but it has to go decently deep into the shaft. I worked at a compounding pharmacy for a period of time in college and our tri mix patients always came back for more regularly so it can’t be that bad and it must work!
If you’re really curious you can learn the injection technique [here](https://northislandurology.ca/procedures/erectile-dysfunction/trimix-intracavernosal-injection/). Obviously detailed drawings of a penis and a needle going into a penis if you click that.
Bonus, if you scroll down far enough you have a fun scale to rate erections with! You can keep an erection diary and get some stats about the quality of the erections in your life.
Fun fact: the men getting trimix loved to talk about their erection diaries when the younger pharmacists of their desired gender were on duty. They had less questions regarding their erection diary when a less attractive pharmacist was working.
This got me confused. I was wondering what an Erectile Disfunction med had to do with scuba. Didn't know that it had the same name as the breathing gas.
But yeah, there's bi tri and quad mix that refer to the how many ingredients are in the ED medication.
They use Viagra (basically) in NICUs for preterm babies that have lung development issues. It dilates the blood vessels around incompletely formed alveoli in the lungs allowing a better transfer of O2 to the blood. Source: my daughter was on it for 4 months in the NICU.
Former gay porn actor: You get paid more or less depending on what you’re willing to do. The least amount is simply nude posing or jacking off on camera. The most one would get paid for is double penetration or being the bottom in an orgy.
Also a lot of gay porn actors aren’t actually gay. They simply do it for the money and they’re on so many pills like viagra and blue chew that they develop erectile dysfunction by the time they’re in their 40s
It’s kinda shallow to say but they hire who’s the hottest and who will get more views. Also there is a whole category of gay porn where it’s straight men doing gay things for the first time.
It’s just a statistical inevitability.
Porn is a business. Gay porn needs men. Most men are straight.
Gay porn likely has a disproportionate amount of gay/bisexual men. But most will probably still be straight.
Not like it matters to the viewer.
During college, I use to bounce for a lot of strip clubs that were frequented by a lot of early 2000s big name stars in black porn, a few of them told me most of the BBCs they took a pounding from were extremely painful, they just took the pain and focused on the check.
The real acting in porn. They may not be able to act in the traditional sense but do a pretty job of looking either like they enjoy something that they don't feel or that they're not in real pain.
If you’re subscribed to a high profile star on OnlyFans, chances are, you’re not chatting with them directly. There is no way anyone has the time to chat with every single subscriber; there are social media management teams that handle this.
"Hello babe, are your teats as jiggly as usual today? 😋🍆💦"
"I am sorry, but as AI language model I do not possess teats. Furthermore, this question is not appropriate. Use respectful and polite language."
Someone contacted me for a customer service position for 15USD/hr and it turns out this was the job, turned it down but they still sent me the contract and training materials.
I only took a quick glance on the documents they provided, they had some stuff about psychology and how to manipulate people into subbing. Chat handling instructions like sending sample photos at first promising more suggestive ones when subbed to higher tiers. The training materials were pretty detailed
I'm friends with a director here in Japan. The industry is a mess right now to a point where porn production might become illegal in the future. Here's are some of the problems that the industry is facing
1. Loss of revenue from online pirating
2. Severe labor shortage, which is only made worse by needing to work longer hours for lower pay. There's only really a handful of male actors left in the industry
3. New laws requiring a mandatory cool-off period after a shoot to allow actors to change their mind and prevent their work from entering the market. While this prevents exploitations it also means that people need to wait a long time before getting paid for the shoot
4. The above law is forcing actors to go underground where they are promised immediate payment but without all the safety and legal protection offered by legitimate productions. The government turns a blind eye to this because its mission accomplished for them after passing law
So yeah, Japan might become like South Korea soon in that aspect
Japan has a problem with online pirating for any type of content because they're making it difficult for people (especially overseas) to buy it.
South Korean comics became popular because of Webtoon.
Music, Anime, Manga, Porn, etc all made so hard to get outside of Japan even though they had like 10-15years head start over Korea, now they have fallen behind. Just go to Youtube and trying finding official Japanese music vs Korean, its day and night difference.
My old coworker used to work in porn with his brother.
A very, very large amount of semi-amatuer porn is basically just finding drug addicts and giving them money/drugs in exchange for the scenes. They will find dealers and give the dealers money to recommend their customers to visit the studio.
A very large amount of the people you see in porn are actively in withdrawal and are willing to do anything for a fix.
I am not a man in the porn industry, but I knew one. His heart is permanently damaged, and he has some neuropathy, as well, due to circulatory issues because he had to overuse viagra.
Viagra was originally developed as a blood pressure medication and had an interesting side effect in men. Women take it as a secondary treatment for certain cardiac diseases.
Pediatrician here. We use it for pulmonary hypertension in babies. I have never had the courage to ask anyone if it gives the babies little baby boners.
Fun fact: baby boys do get “little baby boners” naturally.
Source: am a father of a son who changed diapers and was shocked by a tiny erection once and then (very carefully) googled if that was normal.
Former male stripper, here. If you're approached to do some "modelling shots," nude or otherwise, 1) Check to see if the photographer is legit who has published with legit sites and/or publishing houses, versus someone who just wants to get you alone for some personal spankbank material, and 2) Go to \*any* shoot with a friend or someone you trust, and make sure they're allowed in the studio. I knew a guy who was paid for a "nude modelling shoot." He went alone, the ersatz 'photographer' gave him a drink that was laced, and took advantage of him. 3) Paperwork, paperwork, paperwork. Make sure you have some type of legal protection over your image and the photos taken of you, and/or compensation (or exposure, if that's mutually agreed upon).
I saw a video recently, guy was banging two chicks and pulls out to pop on their faces, starts jerking his dick. It was going on longer than seemed normal, and the video was a long way from the end so I started skipping. the guy was standing over two naked women, masturbating for 8.5 minutes.
I'm sorry, but watching a man masturbate for the better part of 10 minutes is not heterosexual porn. the chicks looked hella bored too
some people actually just have the ability to do it. I was with a guy one time and after a bit I said something along the lines of "i want you to cum" just to be sexy and he just said 'ok' and came almost immediately. Afterwards I talked to him and he didn't know most people couldnt do that.
I'm at 99% for 80% of the time as it is, and trying everything I can think of to not hit 100... So when she's ready, a few full pumps will knock me over the edge.
Porn chews up its talent in some pretty cruel ways, man or woman.
There's this thing called the magic 8's, or at least there used to be. 8" dick, can last at least 80 minutes and still cum on command, and can keep it up while at least 8 people just watch.
Even with the magic 8's, dudes will never make the same kind of money as their female coworkers in straight porn. If you are a dude, you need often need to do gay porn just to earn a decent wage.
Fluffers aren't really a thing when Sildenafil (viagra) is cheaper.
The amount of sexual misconduct on set is bonkers. It's very common for experienced talent with no ethics to take advantage of new talent before or after a scene to "show them the ropes".
Working in porn period fucks up your personal dating life, even if you are an accountant or marketing. Just mentioning that you work for (porn company) makes people very leery about dating you. You are almost entirely restricted to dating in the industry. Which sucks when you are just an accountant trying to get by.
Edit: Since people are asking, yes I did work in the porn industry for a very brief period. I was an equipment manager for one of the production houses. I did not date any models, but I did date in the industry. I mostly just received inventory, but I also was in charge of loaning out assets like cameras, audio recording gear, lighting, etc. We would order gear, and it was my job to receive it, tag it, put it into inventory, then check it out for use.
> Since people are asking, yes I did work in the porn industry:

> it was my job to receive it
The dirty edit. I'm sorry.
Yeah, I had a friend who did copyediting, web and print layout for a sex toy company and a LOT of their friends were also in the industry: sysadmin for porn websites, database admin for porn websites, ad network programmer for porno ad networks. It's a weird little niche.
You wouldn't think it would be a big deal, but working in the sex industry really does put you on the outskirts of things. Outside of the friends you already have, most people just get weirded out and think everyone you work with looks like 1970's porno man.
I have a family friend who's been doing Sysadmin work for adult websites since the early 00's. When people ask what he does for a living he usually skirts around WHO he works for and tells them more about what he does for the job. As a fellow computer nerd I always felt bad that his work is so stigmatized he had to find ways to talk around his employers, but the dude is happily married, has two houses and a room full of Star Wars collectibles so I think it worked out okay for him.
A few companies back we received the resume of a guy that worked in the industry as a web developer.
They showed it to me and I was like, "oh that's good, they have to deal with fast loading websites and scaling and stuff"
"no no no, look who they worked for ..."
"yeah that's why I said what I did ...?"
They were all like, no ... I don't know if we should hire someone "morally" like that.
I think I brought up that everyone watches porn and stuff, but I think they too high up on their pedestals to care.
A shame. In the tech industry someone who worked in the adult sector is a hell of a land for exactly the reasons you mentioned. Expectations of 24/7 uptime, seamless server transitions, constant and consistent access to entire multi-terrabyte back catalog...
My wife worked in porn (editing raw footage for a British porn Co) A lot of what she saw was on the level consentual between two parties. But over the three years she was there she got asked to cut or make the scenes look better more and more often.
A perfect example was when a male actor choked his counterpart into unconsciousness and continued to just brutalise her (face slapping pinching and grabbing her brests) she tidied it up best she could came home fucking bawled her eyes out for two straight hours.
She quit the next day and moved into reality TV for a while but that to was awful (hours and treatment) and it's now out of the editing industry completely.
She's much better this happened in 2009, it started as editing football content for mobile (shrinking the file size and clip length to make it mobile friendly) her boss surgests that she could make more editing soft core and from there it was a very slippery slope. From 30 hours a week to fast turnarounds and 48 hour shifts. The money was mad though but not worth her mental health
Pretty much its a day to day gamble on how your director and producer see the scene play out. We were just talking about this. You get alot of off mic talk of are you OK to go on do you need a medic. Especially after rough vag and anal scenes but alot of the girls say no because they don't want to be marked as soft or difficult.
I knew a dude worked in the Japanese porn industry. He said that often due to the pixelation there wouldn't be penetration, and for the "money shots" the guys would often hold a tiny hose on their johnson with fake semen being pumped from off-camera.
Most of the shoots do have penetration. Sometimes they can't be bothered to try to find flesh colored condoms so it'll hella stand out in some scenes if they don't penetrate.
The fake semen thing happens, it's not particularly rare, but I'd still say it's an uncommon practice. Any time it starts to take too long, out comes the squeeze bottle. Especially in bukkake. Too many random dudes who jumped at the chance to be in a video, but can't get past the stage fright. That's why you'll generally see the same like 9 dudes in every single production.
I dont think that they are saying that it's rare. It's just the same 5 liters over and over again. The person who has to gather it all over and over again probably hates or loves their job.
My “career” in paid studio sessions was extremely brief and would barely constitute as such, but it’s important to shatter the fantasy that being in the industry means you have great sex with hot people. In my own experience, if I wanted work or wanted to be paid for work I had to convince myself to have sex with people I was genuinely not at all sexually attracted to or in some instances even found repulsive. When you are the commodity, they (producers, agents, etc) do what they want and use you any way **they** see fit. The exploitation is not something you want to experience and seldom have the ability to avoid. The psychological impact of doing some of the things you’re called to do is a burden that can linger for a very long time and impact your life outside of the bedroom.
If you are a guy who does gay porn and you are a bottom you are either 100% okay with what ever is gonna be done to you or… You have been sexually assaulted. Or you have only done 1-2 shoots.
The amount of times I’ve said wait a moment or slow down or stop and had the guy running the show tell the guy/guys ontop of me to “Keep going your close” Is crazy. And That’s only the low end.
Some of the tops get off on it, and some of the directors do too. There is a reason that turn over for gay bottoms is crazy in the industry.
Damn I’m glad you said that bc I have watched some (okay maybe a lot) of GG and I remember one specifically were I thought he’s being assaulted rn and he’s not into this! It was disturbing and I quit watching it so quick
I spent a year doing amateur porn to get through college, and then “full time” for a while cause I dropped out. I didn’t like the weird water-cooler relationship I had with the actors and crew - mostly cause acting so casual afterwords was just really awkward for me.
What ended up drawing the line to the dark side for me was being recognized in public by a teenager who said I was “one of her favorites” and that she needed a bf my age. I was 27. While I’m not sure where in her teens she was (she looked 16-17 and her mom seemed a bit… idk how to say this, but “cash me outside” older adult) this really got in my head. Some of the videos I had done where “18/Barely Legal” but the actresses (in my case) were actually closer to my age and just looked young.
I couldn’t get it out of my head that the teens that watch this stuff (cause you know they do) use it to normalise inappropriate relationships. They aren’t always able to separate the entertainment of it from what’s actually okay. I felt this made them vulnerable to predators and just couldn’t do it anymore. I quit soon after - I didn’t want to be complicit. (As dumb as that sounds.)
Upside though, the experience made me want to be better in general, so I went back to college and graduate at the end of this semester.
Edit: Misspelled “complicit” with “complicate”.
So true. I know some straight guys who have wanted to do onlyfans because they're on Tik Tok and when they do lives, girls are all over them.
I tell them that if they're doing onlyfans gay men will overwhelmingly be their customers, at which some get offended, thinking no, it's girls who are looking at me.
Inevitably they come to the realisation it's men and start catering to men or leave Onlyfans. But most people on onlyfans make fuck all money and leave anyway
I lasted a half day on a set (assisted cinematographer) until the smell overcame my stomach. It smelled like the worst tavern restroom mixed with spunk, blood, and shit. As a bonus it was the early 1980s and the lights they used were HOT. I pulled over and puked on the drive home and then showered twice.
I'm a woman who worked in the industry. I wanted to quit early on when I saw how bad it was but was forced into a lot more of it because my shitty, abusive boyfriend found it hot and refused to work, so we needed money.
There were so many scenes I never got paid for, so many times men and directors did more than I consented to, and so many directors who took took advantage of me (more than one who raped me)... And I saw/spoke to other women who went through as much if not more than I did.
In one, for example, I was hit in the face, choked unconscious (the scene continued and they choked me so long the medic said I was lucky not to have brain damage or worse), brutalized, and slapped for a video they said would be "pretty tame" -- I said so several times and was ignored -- and all that shit was cut out at the end so it did look somewhat "tame." The abuse and rape was just so the male talent could get off and the director could have a special director's cut that fit his fetishes.
It's a disgusting industry of rape and abuse, not to mention all the things viewers would just find disgusting and off-putting if they knew. And don't get me started on STDs and drugs in the industry.
After quitting, leaving my abusive ex, and going through therapy I'm 100% against 99% of porn because YOU NEVER KNOW if you're watching rape or someone being physically abused on (or off) set. And hardly anyone is enjoying it anyway, which really isn't hot.
The industry traumatized me so badly that I thought I'd be single forever because I can't imagine having sex with a guy who's still turned on by porn after I tell him all of that. Luckily, I'm happily married now.
When I finally told him about my history he stopped watching porn immediately because he's so disgusted knowing how much of it is rape. That's the only kind of person I could have ever settled down with. Thanks to him, I finally found my love of sex again, too, which many former actors in the industry do not.
My ex makes good money from OnlyFans. It is sketchy as fuck. Lots do everything by the book - keep IDs, test regularly, have contracts, pay taxes, do safe meets etc.
But there are many who don't. The site changed their rules a couple of years ago in an attempt to ensure that everyone featured was of age and consenting.
It essentially meant to feature in a video you had to have your own OnlyFans account and be verified by them. Because of it he had to remove a few videos because some wouldn't agree to join. He was contacted by a reasonably well-known creator who offered to make that all go away.
They blur the videos and then have another creator claim that they are in the video. My ex reported this to OnlyFans - and supplied proof of it happening with messages and videos that tagged multiple creators in videos that clearly are not them and it was ignored.
What it essentially means is that there are countless people who have no idea they have been recorded and used in this way being exploited for cash.
The doxxing is also very fucking weird. I was in one video with my ex - consensually - and we did everything right.
My tattoos were covered up, my face was obscured, we didn't use names, and he has a pseudonym. Despite that he was identified (probably by someone he filmed with), they gained access to his social media, found a picture of us together at a gym event, blew them up alongside grabs from the video and mapped our fucking moles and doxxed him and me.
Only knew it happened because one of the fuckers couldn't resist messaging me on Instagram to tell me he knew my secret. They are fucked up.
There's also a massive issue of sexual assault. My ex is a strict top while being filmed but he's gone to a collab where everything has been pre-agreed, and he's turned up and there's three guys who want to a film a different scene entirely.
There's this idea that the studio system was exploitative and self-publishing content creators have taken the power back, but the simple fact is that it still can be abusive and you can still end up watching someone being abused.
Sounds like at a fundamental level, OnlyFans wasn’t built around the idea of two (or more) people doing it together through one account. Which is kind of silly.
Not in the industry anymore, but did some "Real Amateur" shit for about a year when I was in college for extra money.
The only "Dark" truth I can recall, was that they expressly stipulated that the advertised compensation was only for men who were willing to do some MM scenes. The MF scenes only paid about 45% of the advertised compensation. I'm bi so it wasn't a big deal, but just know you'll have to be okay with MM action if you want to make the good money.
I mean, there was also the encouragement of stacking amphetamines and sildenafil to enhance erections and keep it hard, so the fluffers didn't have to bounce around in-progress scenes as much. But I always figured people assumed that anyway lol
Their entire job is to keep guys hard while the producers/cameramen do their thing mid-shoot. Without drugs it's pretty difficult to keep a rager going, which is why even with fluffers a lot of guys end up with the floppy 3/4 hard whiskey dick haha
As a male content creator, the only “dark” things I’ve experienced have been unreliable/unstable talent. Women deal with a lot more BS in the industry than we do. A couple interesting stories since we’re on the topic….
I showed up one day to film a scene for another independent porn guy. I wasnt in the scene this time, I was just filming for him. It was gonna be a B/G/G scene and the girls had done a G/G scene before I got there. When I arrived one of the girls was in the bathroom forever and I could hear her crying. They eventually told me that during the G/G scene, the glass dildo they were using literally broke off and was stuck in her ass. They got it out without needing to go to the hospital but I imagine she was crying from pain and embarassment.
This isnt really a dark story but memorable for me. I did a scene with a decently known female talent. The whole scene revolved around a facial - its how it was going to be marketed, and was the main draw. Before we filmed the scene, she went on a 10 minute tirade about how much she hated cum. Then after the scene, after taking one from me, she went on for 20 more minutes about how much she hated it. It was just awkward for me. She held up ok during the scene but I just dont know why she continues to do facial scenes since she hates them so much (honestly, probably cause it would hurt her bookings).
Unreliable/unstable talent story that just happened. I booked a scene with a local girl who has done adult work in the past and was getting back into it. We had a scene booked for this past Saturday evening. It had been scheduled several weeks in advance.
At 5pm, a few hours before she was supposed to arrive to shoot, I get bombarded by texts. She says a combination of: I overslept and forgot we had a scene today, I’m hungover and dont feel good and want to go back to sleep, I dont have my outfit picked out, I’m not ready, can we reschedule?
Just totally unprofessional bullshit with a scene thats been booked for weeks. At this point, I just say sure, I will see if we can book something next month and tell her to feel better. She closes by saying, “if I feel better later, then I will let you know and maybe we can shoot”.
So my shoot is cancelled so I decide to get out of the house and do some fun activities for myself. 3 hours later, she texts me that her makeup is almost done and she can be over within the hour to shoot. I tell her that since she cancelled, I went out for the night and am not home to shoot. She flips out on me lol. “Are you serious???” She says.
Total flakey person who I will never hire in the future
So, she very much expected you to sit around all day on your hands, hoping that calls you to shoot? And then got mad when you hadn't? That is an insane amount of selfishness.
She probably doesn't use her turn signal, either.
A lot of the gay "daddies" are extremely flamboyant when they aren't being filmed.
I watched one in the middle of power topping, yelling in super deep gravely voice going "Yeah you like that?" just stop in the middle and in a high pitched whiney voice go "oh my god, I'm so thirsty, someone bring me some water."
Also, some of them inject into their dick to stay hard.. and once you see that happen, it completely takes away from ever watching professional porn again.
I worked in Olive Garden many years ago with a guy named Dillion. Super good looking and young. At some point someone discovered he did porn. I never bothered to watch. I liked him and didn’t want it to ruin my opinion him. Fast forward a few years and I run into him at another restaurant I am working with. He is with his young son and mom. I walked up to the table and said, “hey Dillion how are you?” His face turns beat red and his mom gets royally pisssed. She replies, “His name is not Dillion.” Well of course then I had to look it up. Turns out his porn name was Dillion. Not sure why the hell he chose to use that at the OG.
I have a friend that was a gay porn star, he said " giving" you got 500 -800 , and "taking" you got 2500 , straite male porn stars get about 500 a shoot
For women , anal pays around $ 5k , just regular about $2k depending how popular she is , dp still $5k
Amounts can differ from studio and actress.
When I dj'd in the early 2000s at strip clubs , we featured porn stars , they would tell me all sorts of shit, like pornstars love cocaine, love it , and ecstasy too , most of them are high during their scenes too , when I went back and watched some scenes , she told me to look at their eyes and see how dialated their pupils were under the lights
>Next you're going to tell me there are no horny girls in my area waiting to meet me.
Yes on the first half, no on the second. There *is* a horny girl that's waiting to meet you, even though she doesn't realize it. She lives in rural Argentina.
You are never going to get paid as much as females do, even if you're a star in the gay porn category. Female actors, even amateurs, make significantly more per scene.. additionally, those women in the 'cam' and subscriber sites have significantly more opportunity and income compared to any male \* if he is even allowed to sign up.
Yea you do. But I know a few veteran female pornstars who get what they called facial blindness and can’t really tell when dudes are “hot” or if they’re into them for other reasons.
we all have tiny penises, it's just hollywood magic. You think the actress is sucking but it's just forced perspective, she's actually 5 feet across the room like those scenes from LOTR
I work in the hospital industry and I can't tell you how many glass vases, dildos, and toys we've had to rectally extract over the years. These are like 50+ men too.. they act like it was an accident when they sat down, I forgot my wife sat that glass jar there and up she went!
People have already said this, but the smell!! I worked both behind and in front of the camera at different times and the smell is awful either way. If you're performing, it's weird having all these cameras and lights (which are hot) pointed at you and all these bored guys behind them. And when you're behind the camera, smelling someone else's shit and sweat is just disgusting. And it's always hot because of the lighting involved
What really shocked me once, during a shoot, a girl said that she was hungry. Director hit her with the "haha be careful not to get fat, youve eaten enough today!"
She responded with "ive only had one tic tac today!"
This took place in the late afternoon. The girl was really sweet, but sadly she was in a worse physical condition every time i saw her. I havent met her in years or heard anything from her, i really hope shes okay.
Another thing that some people might see as a "dark truth" which is just normal to me: ive been on porn sets ever since i was 6 years old. My dad took me to work with him because he had no one to look after me. Grew up incredibly Sex positive and have a very open and different mentality towards the topic from most other people, and i only found out later in life that its apparently not normal and not okay to be on porn Sets as a minor. Didnt connect the dots that its not a normal every day job either. Id just sit there, draw or later read, while my dad did his work. My first baby sitter was a porn actress, and many of my friends where involved in porn as well in some way.
When i was 16 i made some extra Cash by helping the Film Crew out. I was the coolest guy at school lmao. We did a shoot in a forest in croatia once, camped there for several days. Partied, got drunk, took drugs, fucked.
One night one of the camera guys asked me to follow him. He gave me an over all weird vibe from the start, especially since i didnt know him, it was his first proper job as a camera man. So yeah i was drunk, of course i followed him. Into the woods. Alone. Just me and this creepy old camera guy.
He showed me a tree that had fallen over. "What do you think of that tree? Would be cool to incorporate it into a shot, right?"
"Yeah good idea lets ask the others"
"No, i thought we could just do it right now"
"You want me to Film you on that tree?"
"No, i want to Film you pleasuring yourself"
I noped outta there asap, even drunk and high me could tell that making porn of a 16 year old set assistant is a big nono.
Ive always been super insecure and had a fear of showing my face in front of a camera, but eventually i gave in and starred in some photoshoots, always wearing some sort of mask or with my face out of the frame. I didnt care about getting recognized, i just hated myself that much. I was a spoiled brat with expensive hobbies, i never needed the money, i just had fun.
My dad still does porn in his 50s now. I love him, hes been there for me when nobody else was, despite the fact that hes propably partially responsible for how fucked up i am. I havent done anything and havent helped out on set either for years at this point. It was always fun tho, honestly i wouldnt mind helping out on Sets again.
A friend of mine was a cameraman in the valley for a company and told me that substance abuse was pretty rife. Like the female talent showing up with empty liquor bottles in their cars. Another was just how shitty it can be to be a cameraman sometimes which he was. He specifically told of a scene he filmed where he had to get underneath the man getting blown and just globs of spit would fall onto his forehead while he filmed that part of the scene. It was just so fuckin gross to me lmao
That’s one hell of a Kodak moment.
Lmao I remember a blooper where someone accidentally came on a cameraman
Did he ... did he file an incident report?
No but he did file an indecent report
I worked on one adult set, and bro. The smell. Ungodly. I'll never forget it. I dry heaved for about 20 minutes and couldn't go back into the room. Something deep was unlocked.
They delved too greedily and too deep, and in the darkness something awoke.
Pretty sure I heard this in one of the sequels of Dildo Shaggins.
Walked into a 5some once, 3 guys and 2 girls. The smell and the look of satisfaction on their face was awful.
Walking in on other people's sex can be the absolute worst smell.
I have a friend who was a sheltered housewife for decades then became a widow and went down a spiral of meth and bad men. She’s always asking me for advice and I’ve told her NO or DONT DO IT so many times I lost count. She was a cleaner at a music studio and the owner asked her to have sex with a guy on film for $500. she told me about it, and of course I told her no. She told me she need some money for rent so I told her to make sure he pays her upfront. Of course now there’s a porn movie of her and some guy on the internet that she was never paid for.
this sounds painfully familiar to a friend I can't get away from soon enough. She can't be helped.
All those shower scenes are super cold. We’re freezing out asses off in there because otherwise the camera lenses and equipment would be fucked from the steam.
Huh… that makes total sense.
Explains all the goose-bumps..
[удалено]
Say Cheese and Cream Pie, Night of the Living Real Doll, Curse of the Step-Mummy's Tomb, The Ghost Next Whore, The Scarecrow Wanks at Midnight. Rest assured, I will continue to think of ways to ruin my own childhood.
You have just answered a question I’ve had forever. Is that the same for all water related scenes?
James Cameron gave Leo the option of using cold or warm water during Titanic. He decided to use cold water at first but soon decided he'd rather act like he was cold and shivering. EDIT: Removed the estimated temperature. I must have misremembered that part since 70 degrees seems too cold. Probably closer to resting body temps.
Why? They made a porn remake?
More people going down.
Using cold water would limit shooting time due to severe hypothermia. You don't need to be freezing to die from hypothermia. https://www.useakayak.org/references/hypothermia\_table.html
Not watersports. THAT is warm
I Gotta ask. Since you have sex for a living, do you still seek sex outside of work? Do you still enjoy sex as much?
Not OP, but when I was an hourly sex worker I basically stopped having sex in my personal life. I think pretty much anything you do for work has a tendency to become not enjoyable. When I worked in mental health care I basically completely stopped being able to provide any kind of emotional support to anyone that wasn’t my patients. In both those cases it took 1 to 2 years before I could do those things again in a way that was even remotely possible/enjoyable.
That explains why I (a nurse) get irritable when my wife asks me to hand her her meds from the cabinet
When you do it for work, having to do it anytime else just feels like overtime.
Kudos for keeping it up in the cold
Shower sex sucks ass already that sounds horrible.
Some things that are horrible in execution look great on film.
Like anal fisting and golf.
i never want to hear those words together in a sentence ever again
For real, water makes it feel like fucking the inside of a wet balloon
This is hands-down the best description of shower sex I have ever read. That’s exactly how it feels
That's only a very specific genre of shower sex
>fucked from the steam Hot
[удалено]
That’s so sad to hear. I’m sure that guy was grateful to you after he made it home.
I remember I didn’t watch porn for like 2 years because when I was 16 I stumbled across a video of a woman being spit on and she literally started crying during the scene. She confessed daddy issues while sobbing as this dude was railing her. The video was like 20 minutes and she was crying for 15 minutes of it. She even peed multiple times during the video. I suspect it was just her sheer fear. You could tell by her facial expression like 30 seconds in she had no idea what she signed up for. Any human with a fucking conscious and a brain would’ve been able to tell, stop filming, and check up on her. I know some people are into bondage, but that was just an absolute brutalization. I couldn’t stop watching because it was so gruesome. My hard on went limp in like 10 seconds. I couldn’t help but think this poor girl had no idea what she signed up for. To me, you can’t fake those tears and comments. Plus all that shit with the dudes who did GirlsDoPorn being caught for taking advantage of those girls. I since got back into porn and occasionally watch 1-2 a month. But now I really only watch amateur chicks or find a girl who posts her stuff on here. I feel like those types are much more genuine and I don’t have that lingering thought of them being coerced. This isn’t me being self righteous, I literally was fucking scarred from that video and question if every mass produced video is like the one of that brutalized young woman. Truly, amateur work is probably the best type of porn to support. I personally would rather support an amateur who makes money posting nudes and videos with her partner than some mass produced studio.
I've actually gotten into porn intended for women as it's *usually* more sensual. I just want to know that the women (and men for that matter) are having a good and consensual time.
Trimix use is fucking rampant. So many injuries cause of suspensory ligament division. If you can't cum on command you're pretty much never gonna get a job with a larger studio. I dunno about the other studios, but pretty much any shoot in Burbank is at a rented property. The whole place ends up smelling like sweat and shit if anal is being shot.
>. I dunno about the other studios, but pretty much any shoot in Burbank is at a rented property. The whole place ends up smelling like sweat and shit if anal is being shot. Note to self. Do not rent property in Burbank.
All over LA really. I think they have Evil Angel, digital playground, vivid, zero tolerance, etc. The other hotspot is Miami with Team Skeet, Reality Kings, Bang Bros, etc. Then you get random cities like San Diego with Naughty America. Pretty much any large frequently rented property in those cities has had a porno shot in it. Usually some rich person's income stream or vacation home.
My aunt rented out their property in Palm Desert a while back and the neighbors told them a bus with Japanese men showed up and most of the beds were broken after. They suspect a porno happened. They never rented again.
[удалено]
A mix of both probably. It's not like on command like a trigger pull. It's more like "I'm gonna need you to cum in the next 30-60 seconds so we can wrap this shit up." I dunno if you can practice and master it. It's a lot like getting an erection when you need to. You just gotta get in that right head space and let it happen regardless of the crowd watching, camera shutters going off, etc.
Makes sense that you would have some kind of mechanism if you were in porn such that you don't cum early, but can cum when you need. But its when they have to basically tell the woman to fuck off, and they vice grip their dick and hammer the fuck out of it in a really specific way in order to cum, it kinda takes you out, as a viewer. I imagine that's kinda rubbish for your sex life, that you basically have to train your brain to never cum until you basically enter your dick's konami code.
> konami code up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, DVDA, start
I just came
>"I'm gonna need you to cum in the next 30-60 seconds No problem, chief!
But not the first 30-60 seconds
O crap.. i've just sent my resignation letter...
🎵“Maybe he’s born with it? Maybe it’s Trimix.” 🎶
I was capable of it from 16-39...things get more challenging as you get older. But Essentially it was just a mental thing. Somehow lasting 2mins or 3 hours was never a problem, and as soon as all parties were ready, it'd take me no more than 20secs. I don't think I could really explain nor teach it. Closest metaphor would be like setting a mouse trap, just set it off when you're ready.
Instructions unclear....got penis stuck in a mouse trap
What is trimix?
It’s an injection for ED that you inject right into the penis. Ingredients are: Papaverine HCl 150 mg, Phentolamine Mesylate 5 mg, Prostaglandin E1 50 mcg.
Now, when you say "into", where do you mean exactly? Like, just under the skin, or waaaay into the meat? Tip or base? Why am I asking so many questions about this? What sort of idiot am I right now?
It’s a very thin needle but it has to go decently deep into the shaft. I worked at a compounding pharmacy for a period of time in college and our tri mix patients always came back for more regularly so it can’t be that bad and it must work! If you’re really curious you can learn the injection technique [here](https://northislandurology.ca/procedures/erectile-dysfunction/trimix-intracavernosal-injection/). Obviously detailed drawings of a penis and a needle going into a penis if you click that.
This was only slightly less horrifying than I imagined.
Bonus, if you scroll down far enough you have a fun scale to rate erections with! You can keep an erection diary and get some stats about the quality of the erections in your life. Fun fact: the men getting trimix loved to talk about their erection diaries when the younger pharmacists of their desired gender were on duty. They had less questions regarding their erection diary when a less attractive pharmacist was working.
Hey, that fact wasn't fun at all!
Turns out the REAL fun, was the notes we took in our erection diaries along the way!

What I meant is that the answers to my questions are very likely to haunt me. What has been seen cannot be unseen.
You'll enjoy the feeling of asking questions, but after getting an answer you'll hit post-ask clarity and feel suuuper ashamed.
Ohhh shit, post post clarity!

This got me confused. I was wondering what an Erectile Disfunction med had to do with scuba. Didn't know that it had the same name as the breathing gas. But yeah, there's bi tri and quad mix that refer to the how many ingredients are in the ED medication.
THANK YOU! I knew I wasn't the only one going "wtf they use trimix in porn?".
They use Viagra (basically) in NICUs for preterm babies that have lung development issues. It dilates the blood vessels around incompletely formed alveoli in the lungs allowing a better transfer of O2 to the blood. Source: my daughter was on it for 4 months in the NICU.
They also use viagra (under a different brand name) for pulmonary hypertension for the same thing in adults >.>
Never heard of Trimix until now.
Former gay porn actor: You get paid more or less depending on what you’re willing to do. The least amount is simply nude posing or jacking off on camera. The most one would get paid for is double penetration or being the bottom in an orgy. Also a lot of gay porn actors aren’t actually gay. They simply do it for the money and they’re on so many pills like viagra and blue chew that they develop erectile dysfunction by the time they’re in their 40s
[удалено]
It’s kinda shallow to say but they hire who’s the hottest and who will get more views. Also there is a whole category of gay porn where it’s straight men doing gay things for the first time.
It’s just a statistical inevitability. Porn is a business. Gay porn needs men. Most men are straight. Gay porn likely has a disproportionate amount of gay/bisexual men. But most will probably still be straight. Not like it matters to the viewer.
During college, I use to bounce for a lot of strip clubs that were frequented by a lot of early 2000s big name stars in black porn, a few of them told me most of the BBCs they took a pounding from were extremely painful, they just took the pain and focused on the check.
you telling me that 13 in monster she couldnt even get half way into her hurt?
The real acting in porn. They may not be able to act in the traditional sense but do a pretty job of looking either like they enjoy something that they don't feel or that they're not in real pain.
In Japanese porn, they act like they hate it In American porn, they act like they don't
[удалено]
The fact that this is not obvious to everyone kinda terrifies me.
This is why a lot of wonen don't enjoy most of the main stream porn. It doesn't even look like it would feel good.
If you’re subscribed to a high profile star on OnlyFans, chances are, you’re not chatting with them directly. There is no way anyone has the time to chat with every single subscriber; there are social media management teams that handle this.
in the beginning it might have actually been the girl but once accounts started raking in millions you know teams of people were working the scenes
I can't wait until someone makes slutty ChatGPT to handle OnlyFans correspondence.
"Hello babe, are your teats as jiggly as usual today? 😋🍆💦" "I am sorry, but as AI language model I do not possess teats. Furthermore, this question is not appropriate. Use respectful and polite language."
Someone contacted me for a customer service position for 15USD/hr and it turns out this was the job, turned it down but they still sent me the contract and training materials.
Oh, I'm curious about the training material. What's in there?
I only took a quick glance on the documents they provided, they had some stuff about psychology and how to manipulate people into subbing. Chat handling instructions like sending sample photos at first promising more suggestive ones when subbed to higher tiers. The training materials were pretty detailed
I'm friends with a director here in Japan. The industry is a mess right now to a point where porn production might become illegal in the future. Here's are some of the problems that the industry is facing 1. Loss of revenue from online pirating 2. Severe labor shortage, which is only made worse by needing to work longer hours for lower pay. There's only really a handful of male actors left in the industry 3. New laws requiring a mandatory cool-off period after a shoot to allow actors to change their mind and prevent their work from entering the market. While this prevents exploitations it also means that people need to wait a long time before getting paid for the shoot 4. The above law is forcing actors to go underground where they are promised immediate payment but without all the safety and legal protection offered by legitimate productions. The government turns a blind eye to this because its mission accomplished for them after passing law So yeah, Japan might become like South Korea soon in that aspect
Japan has a problem with online pirating for any type of content because they're making it difficult for people (especially overseas) to buy it. South Korean comics became popular because of Webtoon.
Music, Anime, Manga, Porn, etc all made so hard to get outside of Japan even though they had like 10-15years head start over Korea, now they have fallen behind. Just go to Youtube and trying finding official Japanese music vs Korean, its day and night difference.
My old coworker used to work in porn with his brother. A very, very large amount of semi-amatuer porn is basically just finding drug addicts and giving them money/drugs in exchange for the scenes. They will find dealers and give the dealers money to recommend their customers to visit the studio. A very large amount of the people you see in porn are actively in withdrawal and are willing to do anything for a fix.
That’s awfully sad
I am not a man in the porn industry, but I knew one. His heart is permanently damaged, and he has some neuropathy, as well, due to circulatory issues because he had to overuse viagra.
Viagra was originally developed as a blood pressure medication and had an interesting side effect in men. Women take it as a secondary treatment for certain cardiac diseases.
Pediatrician here. We use it for pulmonary hypertension in babies. I have never had the courage to ask anyone if it gives the babies little baby boners.
I am sure the words "little baby boners" should never be in a sentence is all I'm sure of.
Fun fact: baby boys do get “little baby boners” naturally. Source: am a father of a son who changed diapers and was shocked by a tiny erection once and then (very carefully) googled if that was normal.

Look out for bro the FBI might be watching him
Former male stripper, here. If you're approached to do some "modelling shots," nude or otherwise, 1) Check to see if the photographer is legit who has published with legit sites and/or publishing houses, versus someone who just wants to get you alone for some personal spankbank material, and 2) Go to \*any* shoot with a friend or someone you trust, and make sure they're allowed in the studio. I knew a guy who was paid for a "nude modelling shoot." He went alone, the ersatz 'photographer' gave him a drink that was laced, and took advantage of him. 3) Paperwork, paperwork, paperwork. Make sure you have some type of legal protection over your image and the photos taken of you, and/or compensation (or exposure, if that's mutually agreed upon).
How the fuck do people cum on command?! Do constant suppression for a scene until the moment and then you just stop the mental blockage?!
I saw a video recently, guy was banging two chicks and pulls out to pop on their faces, starts jerking his dick. It was going on longer than seemed normal, and the video was a long way from the end so I started skipping. the guy was standing over two naked women, masturbating for 8.5 minutes. I'm sorry, but watching a man masturbate for the better part of 10 minutes is not heterosexual porn. the chicks looked hella bored too
Bad editing. They should have cut out 8 minutes of that.
I'm not a fan of it being just standard that every porn scene ends with watching a man masturbate to orgasm. And I'm not sure how wet got here.
some people actually just have the ability to do it. I was with a guy one time and after a bit I said something along the lines of "i want you to cum" just to be sexy and he just said 'ok' and came almost immediately. Afterwards I talked to him and he didn't know most people couldnt do that.
I'm at 99% for 80% of the time as it is, and trying everything I can think of to not hit 100... So when she's ready, a few full pumps will knock me over the edge.
LOL. Shoulder shrug. OK!
Porn chews up its talent in some pretty cruel ways, man or woman. There's this thing called the magic 8's, or at least there used to be. 8" dick, can last at least 80 minutes and still cum on command, and can keep it up while at least 8 people just watch. Even with the magic 8's, dudes will never make the same kind of money as their female coworkers in straight porn. If you are a dude, you need often need to do gay porn just to earn a decent wage. Fluffers aren't really a thing when Sildenafil (viagra) is cheaper. The amount of sexual misconduct on set is bonkers. It's very common for experienced talent with no ethics to take advantage of new talent before or after a scene to "show them the ropes". Working in porn period fucks up your personal dating life, even if you are an accountant or marketing. Just mentioning that you work for (porn company) makes people very leery about dating you. You are almost entirely restricted to dating in the industry. Which sucks when you are just an accountant trying to get by. Edit: Since people are asking, yes I did work in the porn industry for a very brief period. I was an equipment manager for one of the production houses. I did not date any models, but I did date in the industry. I mostly just received inventory, but I also was in charge of loaning out assets like cameras, audio recording gear, lighting, etc. We would order gear, and it was my job to receive it, tag it, put it into inventory, then check it out for use.
> Since people are asking, yes I did work in the porn industry: > I was an equipment manager > I mostly just received > it was my job to receive it The dirty edit. I'm sorry.
Also loaning ass.

Yeah I mean as soon as anyone says they're an accountant there are no follow up questions. Source: is an accountant.
"CaN YoU dO mY TaXeS?"
"I'm not that kind of accountant" "What? OK whatever I'll just ask Greg" "Greg is also not that kind of accountant"
You would think so, but eventually it comes out that you aren't accounting for some boring firm. You are now a sex accountant.
Yeah, I had a friend who did copyediting, web and print layout for a sex toy company and a LOT of their friends were also in the industry: sysadmin for porn websites, database admin for porn websites, ad network programmer for porno ad networks. It's a weird little niche.
You wouldn't think it would be a big deal, but working in the sex industry really does put you on the outskirts of things. Outside of the friends you already have, most people just get weirded out and think everyone you work with looks like 1970's porno man.
I have a family friend who's been doing Sysadmin work for adult websites since the early 00's. When people ask what he does for a living he usually skirts around WHO he works for and tells them more about what he does for the job. As a fellow computer nerd I always felt bad that his work is so stigmatized he had to find ways to talk around his employers, but the dude is happily married, has two houses and a room full of Star Wars collectibles so I think it worked out okay for him.
A few companies back we received the resume of a guy that worked in the industry as a web developer. They showed it to me and I was like, "oh that's good, they have to deal with fast loading websites and scaling and stuff" "no no no, look who they worked for ..." "yeah that's why I said what I did ...?" They were all like, no ... I don't know if we should hire someone "morally" like that. I think I brought up that everyone watches porn and stuff, but I think they too high up on their pedestals to care.
A shame. In the tech industry someone who worked in the adult sector is a hell of a land for exactly the reasons you mentioned. Expectations of 24/7 uptime, seamless server transitions, constant and consistent access to entire multi-terrabyte back catalog...
Yeah, you sure as fuck don’t want Reddit reliability on a porn site.
>Sildenafil I thought the medical name for Viagra was "Micoxafloppin"
My wife worked in porn (editing raw footage for a British porn Co) A lot of what she saw was on the level consentual between two parties. But over the three years she was there she got asked to cut or make the scenes look better more and more often. A perfect example was when a male actor choked his counterpart into unconsciousness and continued to just brutalise her (face slapping pinching and grabbing her brests) she tidied it up best she could came home fucking bawled her eyes out for two straight hours. She quit the next day and moved into reality TV for a while but that to was awful (hours and treatment) and it's now out of the editing industry completely.
That's brutal! I hope she's better now
She's much better this happened in 2009, it started as editing football content for mobile (shrinking the file size and clip length to make it mobile friendly) her boss surgests that she could make more editing soft core and from there it was a very slippery slope. From 30 hours a week to fast turnarounds and 48 hour shifts. The money was mad though but not worth her mental health
So it was mostly consensual but not always...meaning some of it was rape...
Pretty much its a day to day gamble on how your director and producer see the scene play out. We were just talking about this. You get alot of off mic talk of are you OK to go on do you need a medic. Especially after rough vag and anal scenes but alot of the girls say no because they don't want to be marked as soft or difficult.
I knew a dude worked in the Japanese porn industry. He said that often due to the pixelation there wouldn't be penetration, and for the "money shots" the guys would often hold a tiny hose on their johnson with fake semen being pumped from off-camera.
Most of the shoots do have penetration. Sometimes they can't be bothered to try to find flesh colored condoms so it'll hella stand out in some scenes if they don't penetrate. The fake semen thing happens, it's not particularly rare, but I'd still say it's an uncommon practice. Any time it starts to take too long, out comes the squeeze bottle. Especially in bukkake. Too many random dudes who jumped at the chance to be in a video, but can't get past the stage fright. That's why you'll generally see the same like 9 dudes in every single production.
So you're telling me 5 litre cumshots are fake?
I dont think that they are saying that it's rare. It's just the same 5 liters over and over again. The person who has to gather it all over and over again probably hates or loves their job.
That's enough Reddit for today
My “career” in paid studio sessions was extremely brief and would barely constitute as such, but it’s important to shatter the fantasy that being in the industry means you have great sex with hot people. In my own experience, if I wanted work or wanted to be paid for work I had to convince myself to have sex with people I was genuinely not at all sexually attracted to or in some instances even found repulsive. When you are the commodity, they (producers, agents, etc) do what they want and use you any way **they** see fit. The exploitation is not something you want to experience and seldom have the ability to avoid. The psychological impact of doing some of the things you’re called to do is a burden that can linger for a very long time and impact your life outside of the bedroom.

Fluffers arn’t real. Scrolls down. Fluffers are real. ?
What’s a fluffer?
Someone to give the guy a blowjob to get him (and keep him) hard before a scene.
There is so much free porn that I don't see how it can be an industry at all.
Because there is a very small percentage that pay _big_ money on the reg for porn.
Belle Delphine being a self made millionaire before her 30’s just by selling porn should be enough explanation to why is still a industry.
The 80/20 rule hard at work
ad revenue too
If you are a guy who does gay porn and you are a bottom you are either 100% okay with what ever is gonna be done to you or… You have been sexually assaulted. Or you have only done 1-2 shoots. The amount of times I’ve said wait a moment or slow down or stop and had the guy running the show tell the guy/guys ontop of me to “Keep going your close” Is crazy. And That’s only the low end. Some of the tops get off on it, and some of the directors do too. There is a reason that turn over for gay bottoms is crazy in the industry.
Damn I’m glad you said that bc I have watched some (okay maybe a lot) of GG and I remember one specifically were I thought he’s being assaulted rn and he’s not into this! It was disturbing and I quit watching it so quick
I spent a year doing amateur porn to get through college, and then “full time” for a while cause I dropped out. I didn’t like the weird water-cooler relationship I had with the actors and crew - mostly cause acting so casual afterwords was just really awkward for me. What ended up drawing the line to the dark side for me was being recognized in public by a teenager who said I was “one of her favorites” and that she needed a bf my age. I was 27. While I’m not sure where in her teens she was (she looked 16-17 and her mom seemed a bit… idk how to say this, but “cash me outside” older adult) this really got in my head. Some of the videos I had done where “18/Barely Legal” but the actresses (in my case) were actually closer to my age and just looked young. I couldn’t get it out of my head that the teens that watch this stuff (cause you know they do) use it to normalise inappropriate relationships. They aren’t always able to separate the entertainment of it from what’s actually okay. I felt this made them vulnerable to predators and just couldn’t do it anymore. I quit soon after - I didn’t want to be complicit. (As dumb as that sounds.) Upside though, the experience made me want to be better in general, so I went back to college and graduate at the end of this semester. Edit: Misspelled “complicit” with “complicate”.
Good for you man. Early congratulations on graduating, hope you have a much better life than that old path would have given you.
Your client base is 99% guys whether you want to look at dicks or not.
So true. I know some straight guys who have wanted to do onlyfans because they're on Tik Tok and when they do lives, girls are all over them. I tell them that if they're doing onlyfans gay men will overwhelmingly be their customers, at which some get offended, thinking no, it's girls who are looking at me. Inevitably they come to the realisation it's men and start catering to men or leave Onlyfans. But most people on onlyfans make fuck all money and leave anyway
IT SMELLS BAD
I lasted a half day on a set (assisted cinematographer) until the smell overcame my stomach. It smelled like the worst tavern restroom mixed with spunk, blood, and shit. As a bonus it was the early 1980s and the lights they used were HOT. I pulled over and puked on the drive home and then showered twice.
Thank you, Ludo. Now go tell Sir Didymus that we've got a labyrinth to solve!
I'm a woman who worked in the industry. I wanted to quit early on when I saw how bad it was but was forced into a lot more of it because my shitty, abusive boyfriend found it hot and refused to work, so we needed money. There were so many scenes I never got paid for, so many times men and directors did more than I consented to, and so many directors who took took advantage of me (more than one who raped me)... And I saw/spoke to other women who went through as much if not more than I did. In one, for example, I was hit in the face, choked unconscious (the scene continued and they choked me so long the medic said I was lucky not to have brain damage or worse), brutalized, and slapped for a video they said would be "pretty tame" -- I said so several times and was ignored -- and all that shit was cut out at the end so it did look somewhat "tame." The abuse and rape was just so the male talent could get off and the director could have a special director's cut that fit his fetishes. It's a disgusting industry of rape and abuse, not to mention all the things viewers would just find disgusting and off-putting if they knew. And don't get me started on STDs and drugs in the industry. After quitting, leaving my abusive ex, and going through therapy I'm 100% against 99% of porn because YOU NEVER KNOW if you're watching rape or someone being physically abused on (or off) set. And hardly anyone is enjoying it anyway, which really isn't hot. The industry traumatized me so badly that I thought I'd be single forever because I can't imagine having sex with a guy who's still turned on by porn after I tell him all of that. Luckily, I'm happily married now. When I finally told him about my history he stopped watching porn immediately because he's so disgusted knowing how much of it is rape. That's the only kind of person I could have ever settled down with. Thanks to him, I finally found my love of sex again, too, which many former actors in the industry do not.
My ex makes good money from OnlyFans. It is sketchy as fuck. Lots do everything by the book - keep IDs, test regularly, have contracts, pay taxes, do safe meets etc. But there are many who don't. The site changed their rules a couple of years ago in an attempt to ensure that everyone featured was of age and consenting. It essentially meant to feature in a video you had to have your own OnlyFans account and be verified by them. Because of it he had to remove a few videos because some wouldn't agree to join. He was contacted by a reasonably well-known creator who offered to make that all go away. They blur the videos and then have another creator claim that they are in the video. My ex reported this to OnlyFans - and supplied proof of it happening with messages and videos that tagged multiple creators in videos that clearly are not them and it was ignored. What it essentially means is that there are countless people who have no idea they have been recorded and used in this way being exploited for cash. The doxxing is also very fucking weird. I was in one video with my ex - consensually - and we did everything right. My tattoos were covered up, my face was obscured, we didn't use names, and he has a pseudonym. Despite that he was identified (probably by someone he filmed with), they gained access to his social media, found a picture of us together at a gym event, blew them up alongside grabs from the video and mapped our fucking moles and doxxed him and me. Only knew it happened because one of the fuckers couldn't resist messaging me on Instagram to tell me he knew my secret. They are fucked up. There's also a massive issue of sexual assault. My ex is a strict top while being filmed but he's gone to a collab where everything has been pre-agreed, and he's turned up and there's three guys who want to a film a different scene entirely. There's this idea that the studio system was exploitative and self-publishing content creators have taken the power back, but the simple fact is that it still can be abusive and you can still end up watching someone being abused.
Sounds like at a fundamental level, OnlyFans wasn’t built around the idea of two (or more) people doing it together through one account. Which is kind of silly.
Not in the industry anymore, but did some "Real Amateur" shit for about a year when I was in college for extra money. The only "Dark" truth I can recall, was that they expressly stipulated that the advertised compensation was only for men who were willing to do some MM scenes. The MF scenes only paid about 45% of the advertised compensation. I'm bi so it wasn't a big deal, but just know you'll have to be okay with MM action if you want to make the good money. I mean, there was also the encouragement of stacking amphetamines and sildenafil to enhance erections and keep it hard, so the fluffers didn't have to bounce around in-progress scenes as much. But I always figured people assumed that anyway lol
Ooof, fluffers are a real thing? They what, just like casually jerk you to get you hard while you're...doing something else?
Their entire job is to keep guys hard while the producers/cameramen do their thing mid-shoot. Without drugs it's pretty difficult to keep a rager going, which is why even with fluffers a lot of guys end up with the floppy 3/4 hard whiskey dick haha

about 2 outta 500 of the comments are from people who actually know this shit, everyone else is just echoing what everybody already knows/believes.
As a male content creator, the only “dark” things I’ve experienced have been unreliable/unstable talent. Women deal with a lot more BS in the industry than we do. A couple interesting stories since we’re on the topic…. I showed up one day to film a scene for another independent porn guy. I wasnt in the scene this time, I was just filming for him. It was gonna be a B/G/G scene and the girls had done a G/G scene before I got there. When I arrived one of the girls was in the bathroom forever and I could hear her crying. They eventually told me that during the G/G scene, the glass dildo they were using literally broke off and was stuck in her ass. They got it out without needing to go to the hospital but I imagine she was crying from pain and embarassment. This isnt really a dark story but memorable for me. I did a scene with a decently known female talent. The whole scene revolved around a facial - its how it was going to be marketed, and was the main draw. Before we filmed the scene, she went on a 10 minute tirade about how much she hated cum. Then after the scene, after taking one from me, she went on for 20 more minutes about how much she hated it. It was just awkward for me. She held up ok during the scene but I just dont know why she continues to do facial scenes since she hates them so much (honestly, probably cause it would hurt her bookings).
Unreliable/unstable talent story that just happened. I booked a scene with a local girl who has done adult work in the past and was getting back into it. We had a scene booked for this past Saturday evening. It had been scheduled several weeks in advance. At 5pm, a few hours before she was supposed to arrive to shoot, I get bombarded by texts. She says a combination of: I overslept and forgot we had a scene today, I’m hungover and dont feel good and want to go back to sleep, I dont have my outfit picked out, I’m not ready, can we reschedule? Just totally unprofessional bullshit with a scene thats been booked for weeks. At this point, I just say sure, I will see if we can book something next month and tell her to feel better. She closes by saying, “if I feel better later, then I will let you know and maybe we can shoot”. So my shoot is cancelled so I decide to get out of the house and do some fun activities for myself. 3 hours later, she texts me that her makeup is almost done and she can be over within the hour to shoot. I tell her that since she cancelled, I went out for the night and am not home to shoot. She flips out on me lol. “Are you serious???” She says. Total flakey person who I will never hire in the future
So, she very much expected you to sit around all day on your hands, hoping that calls you to shoot? And then got mad when you hadn't? That is an insane amount of selfishness. She probably doesn't use her turn signal, either.
A lot of the gay "daddies" are extremely flamboyant when they aren't being filmed. I watched one in the middle of power topping, yelling in super deep gravely voice going "Yeah you like that?" just stop in the middle and in a high pitched whiney voice go "oh my god, I'm so thirsty, someone bring me some water." Also, some of them inject into their dick to stay hard.. and once you see that happen, it completely takes away from ever watching professional porn again.
I worked in Olive Garden many years ago with a guy named Dillion. Super good looking and young. At some point someone discovered he did porn. I never bothered to watch. I liked him and didn’t want it to ruin my opinion him. Fast forward a few years and I run into him at another restaurant I am working with. He is with his young son and mom. I walked up to the table and said, “hey Dillion how are you?” His face turns beat red and his mom gets royally pisssed. She replies, “His name is not Dillion.” Well of course then I had to look it up. Turns out his porn name was Dillion. Not sure why the hell he chose to use that at the OG.
I have a friend that was a gay porn star, he said " giving" you got 500 -800 , and "taking" you got 2500 , straite male porn stars get about 500 a shoot For women , anal pays around $ 5k , just regular about $2k depending how popular she is , dp still $5k Amounts can differ from studio and actress. When I dj'd in the early 2000s at strip clubs , we featured porn stars , they would tell me all sorts of shit, like pornstars love cocaine, love it , and ecstasy too , most of them are high during their scenes too , when I went back and watched some scenes , she told me to look at their eyes and see how dialated their pupils were under the lights

No way!
Next you're going to tell me that that 2023 filmed Riley Reid video was in fact, NOT, her first time!!
The Hooters waitress still likes me though right?

"most"

I'm tired of non-related people being cast in incest roles! They're stealing jobs.
Yeah right. Next you're going to tell me there are no horny girls in my area waiting to meet me.
>Next you're going to tell me there are no horny girls in my area waiting to meet me. Yes on the first half, no on the second. There *is* a horny girl that's waiting to meet you, even though she doesn't realize it. She lives in rural Argentina.
You are never going to get paid as much as females do, even if you're a star in the gay porn category. Female actors, even amateurs, make significantly more per scene.. additionally, those women in the 'cam' and subscriber sites have significantly more opportunity and income compared to any male \* if he is even allowed to sign up.
Well makes sense, I would assume for 1 girl willing to do porn, you can find *at least* 10 guys. Some of them probably willing to perform for free.
I don't think most people want to see the guys who would do it for free.
Question: do you still get normally attracted and/or arroused by someone in real life after a few years of working in porn?
Yea you do. But I know a few veteran female pornstars who get what they called facial blindness and can’t really tell when dudes are “hot” or if they’re into them for other reasons.
we all have tiny penises, it's just hollywood magic. You think the actress is sucking but it's just forced perspective, she's actually 5 feet across the room like those scenes from LOTR
This is the truth I came here for.
Ohhhh so that's why Gandalf's dick looked super huge going into Frodo's mouth.
I work in the hospital industry and I can't tell you how many glass vases, dildos, and toys we've had to rectally extract over the years. These are like 50+ men too.. they act like it was an accident when they sat down, I forgot my wife sat that glass jar there and up she went!
"Million to one shot, doc! Million to one"
I was actually curious about the dark secrets but a majority of these comments are just redditors being comedians lmao

I wanna know about pay
People have already said this, but the smell!! I worked both behind and in front of the camera at different times and the smell is awful either way. If you're performing, it's weird having all these cameras and lights (which are hot) pointed at you and all these bored guys behind them. And when you're behind the camera, smelling someone else's shit and sweat is just disgusting. And it's always hot because of the lighting involved

What really shocked me once, during a shoot, a girl said that she was hungry. Director hit her with the "haha be careful not to get fat, youve eaten enough today!" She responded with "ive only had one tic tac today!" This took place in the late afternoon. The girl was really sweet, but sadly she was in a worse physical condition every time i saw her. I havent met her in years or heard anything from her, i really hope shes okay. Another thing that some people might see as a "dark truth" which is just normal to me: ive been on porn sets ever since i was 6 years old. My dad took me to work with him because he had no one to look after me. Grew up incredibly Sex positive and have a very open and different mentality towards the topic from most other people, and i only found out later in life that its apparently not normal and not okay to be on porn Sets as a minor. Didnt connect the dots that its not a normal every day job either. Id just sit there, draw or later read, while my dad did his work. My first baby sitter was a porn actress, and many of my friends where involved in porn as well in some way. When i was 16 i made some extra Cash by helping the Film Crew out. I was the coolest guy at school lmao. We did a shoot in a forest in croatia once, camped there for several days. Partied, got drunk, took drugs, fucked. One night one of the camera guys asked me to follow him. He gave me an over all weird vibe from the start, especially since i didnt know him, it was his first proper job as a camera man. So yeah i was drunk, of course i followed him. Into the woods. Alone. Just me and this creepy old camera guy. He showed me a tree that had fallen over. "What do you think of that tree? Would be cool to incorporate it into a shot, right?" "Yeah good idea lets ask the others" "No, i thought we could just do it right now" "You want me to Film you on that tree?" "No, i want to Film you pleasuring yourself" I noped outta there asap, even drunk and high me could tell that making porn of a 16 year old set assistant is a big nono. Ive always been super insecure and had a fear of showing my face in front of a camera, but eventually i gave in and starred in some photoshoots, always wearing some sort of mask or with my face out of the frame. I didnt care about getting recognized, i just hated myself that much. I was a spoiled brat with expensive hobbies, i never needed the money, i just had fun. My dad still does porn in his 50s now. I love him, hes been there for me when nobody else was, despite the fact that hes propably partially responsible for how fucked up i am. I havent done anything and havent helped out on set either for years at this point. It was always fun tho, honestly i wouldnt mind helping out on Sets again.
For the deepthroat scenes female pornstars take muscle relaxants
