Yay or nay: Should I become a pornstar?

Good Bod + No Shame = Easy Money

I think we could all agree that, despite the social repercussions, the porn industry is a "hard" yet good paying position.. amirite? Nowadays, pornstars CONSTANTLY have STD tests done, so its a lot "safer" than it once was. I believe that it's perhaps the only industry in which a woman is glorified for "breaking backs" and grabbing them right by the "cookie." (words of wisdom) Not to mention, it's just like any other acting job.. right? It's not like it's real or I'd actually be experiencing much pleasure, similar to that of any job... so, what's the big deal? After all, we're all kinda fucked one way or another.

Should I or should I not become a pornstar? Why or why not? (Not trolling, just curious if it would be advantageous of me to enter said industry) Any thoughts?

  • Let's be blunt and honest:

    You have to be the kind of girl who can have sex with people that you just met 2 minutes ago and have the whole world see it. You have to do this in a room with 5+ people watching. Your parents will find out. So will everyone you went to school or church or camp with. 20 years from now, people you meet will be passing around your videos. And people (mostly women, ironically) will call you a slut and a whore while you are trying on shoes or buying celery.

    If you can handle all that and still be healthy, physically and mentally, then, sure, you can make a lot of money working 2-4 hours a day a couple days a week, and if you do especially well, you'll have people pay for trips and events and who knows what else?

    Know that most women have a career that is 1-2 years long - only the ones who have "that certain something" that causes their videos to sell well will be able to have a 5+ year career. If you do go that long, you could easily make $1-2M dollars, and invested wisely in a house or a stock account could provide you a pretty comfortable life. But a lot of porn girls get used to making $20,000 a month and buy every designer outfit that catches their eye and 200 pairs of shoes that will be out of style next year, and when they retire, they have 40 sets of lingerie and a bunch of shoes and not much else.

    The ones who do well start for professional companies, and they go in early and stay late and they learn the other aspects of the profession, and become directors or open their own production studios (after carefully learning from the successful people). Research Joanna Angel and Kelly Madison.

    Like anything else, you can make it a success, or you can let it take you for a ride and have little to show for it. Being a success takes a lot more work and discipline, but has a lot better pay-off too.

    • I value your opinion, thank you for sharing. :)

  • You would be better off producing and selling amateur content on pornhub, reddit, or a cam site. Much better control of content.

    Find a guy you are willing to split a certain percentage of the money with in order to make the films, and then offer them as ppv content. There's a subreddit called /r/Sexsells that is all about that sort of setup.

    • Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate it!

    • Another plus for amateur content is that you have the ability to custom make videos for people, and some are willing to pay a pretty penny for a custom masturbation video where you say their name or wear a particular outfit. And you get to choose what you will and won't do.

  • ok- I will be honest and anonymous :)
    I spent my formative college years as an escort. It paid the bills, my college tuition, and i still have a fairly good savings account from those years.
    The downside is that the sex industry just wears a girl out. I have become very cynical about men's motivations toward women. I feel as though guys look at me still only as a sexual object to be bought and paid for.
    I like being sexual, but honestly, there is no love in it at all. And I think that if you are looking for a mate, the sex industry is the last place you will ever want to find yourself, if you are female.
    I love every bit of it-the travel and the money. And I also hated it-because I felt so used.
    So there you have it, from someone who has lived that life.

  • No please don't, I don't think those girls get any respect at all, it might appear that they do but guys will say anything, will do anything to make those girls feel good about their choice of doing porn. It's all fake just to have sex with them.
    Those girls have such a low self esteem, no self worth and self respect, think about it, would you really want the life of a slut?

  • If you want to become a pornstar, do it.

  • Do whatever you want, it’s your life and you shouldn’t answer to anyone except yourself.

    I thought about doing it one time but then I reminded myself that I’m in college for a reason so nah 🤣

  • You are a little old to start.

    I have met a few porn performers. A couple wanted to date me. I declined.

    There are three things to be wary of.

    First is drugs. A huge percent of them are on drugs. They make their money then pass it to their dealer. Don't do drugs, no matter what.

    Second is that you will be pressured to do more and more extreme things until you are used up in about 6 months. If you don't do more extreme things, you will not be hired after about a month.

    Third is that people who are not used to having money often go crazy with their spending as soon as they get some, so they go right back to having none. Do not increase your spending just because you got paid $5,000 this week.

    If you want to do it for kicks, just do an amateur casting type scene. If you want to do it for a career (of 6 months), then you might want to arrange for your bail, your addiction treatment, and your therapist before hand.

  • All the guys are obviously going to say yes
    but no
    you shouldn't

    • YESSSS

    • @Potatocream go awai

    • RUDE

  • Try Twitch first

    • People actually use Twitch for that purpose? I thought it was highly moderated.

    • Have you seen those girls? They just paint their boobs or wear very tight clothing. If you are hot, you’ll earn money

    • No, I've never actually looked into it before. This is news to me.

    • Show All
  • Go for it

  • Go for it just remember sluttyer = more money

  • Porn is not easy... The scenes they film are chopped up and edited so much. There's a lot of stop and go. That can be painful for a woman over a period of time. Not only that but you're dealing with some dudes that have dicks that could fit on a small horse. It's not an easy and glamorous life. That's not even getting into the social stigma of it.

  • let me be your first and last

  • YES DO IT! i will join you! lol

    • Hell yeah!

    • i am thinking of getting into porn myself because of my huge size. like you said "Good Bod + No Shame = Easy Money" lol ;P

  • Only if you have zero self-respect and do not mind greatly increasing your chances of an early death.

  • If you feel like doing porn just do it. As you said it is safer than before and also paying really good. Also from a customer pov i would like to see new faces in porn.

  • lol that picture is funny

  • Our decisions have consequences.

    • Meaning?

  • Hell no

    • Why not?
