Porn stars speak out about the reality of the porn industry

The original post of this thread made me feel

I dunno from a lot of the videos I have watched the girls seems like it quite a bit lol.

[lei.talk]

Seriously, though, why do people [choose to] do this to themselves?

for the same reason that any one chooses
any form of slow-motion suicide - instead of health, wealth and wisdom:

the self-hatred that emulates the parental neglect/abuse they endured
during the formative years in which they might have developed self-love/respect.

it is the psychological form of "failure to thrive".

It's staged.

Very sick. Most glad porn looks rather fakish to me anyway - and it's because everything is fake, including [many of] the orgasms.

This is woman abuse on the same level of what is happening in certain Muslim countries, only at the other side of the spectrum.

You will find abuse in any sort of work. Most of these problems would be eliminated with better regulation and perhaps some sort of a trade union.

Porn is fraud and it does not reflect reality. This is no revelation.
Ofc it also has negative mental implications on the minds of the actors as well as the viewers.
The only good aspect of porn is that it can teach how to have different ways of sex and positions.
But therefore only few clips are sufficent.

Women enjoy normal classic sex, many even more than men. But not these degrading things which are done in some porns.

[Black Wolf]

Well I have seen some who genuinely seem to enjoy it. Obviously I am not saying that all do...People come in all varieties.

I need to read from Mary before I make my mind on this one.
