I am not the parent commenter.

Apparently, the process of filming pornography is really messy, arduous, starts to smell bad quickly, and many of the positions are uncomfortable. Not to mention the fact that many scenes need re-takes. That's just the reality of filmmaking.

It's also quite awkward to have a director and camera crew staring at you the whole time and giving you instructions.

I read this on an AskReddit thread.

On top of that there is a loooooot of shady shit going on.

Drugs. Lots of drugs. All of them. All at once.

Jerks getting on blacklists just to circumvent them and end up on stage again just to beat the shit out of another actor/actress. There is a good chance that you unknowingly watched rape at some point.

You get persuaded a lot as a porn star. To fuck people you don’t wanna fuck with, to do things you don’t wanna do.

And then there are the fans, oh boy. Imagine being the target of a troll campaign and the trolls have literally terabytes of ammunition against you. They get really disgusting and you get harassed online and in RL all the time.

If you somehow have a family life going on, they will also be targeted by that shit. Retired porn actresses want to have children but they can’t, because they don’t want their kids to live through that hell.

Luckily not a porn star myself. Just read a ton of AMAs and articles on the subject. The more you inform yourself about what’s going on behind the scenes, the less you actually want to watch porn. It’s a mood killer to say the least.

Twilight. My brain was violated

It's a major reason why I only watch independent sex worker stuff now. And even then you can't be 100% sure...

[–] [email protected] 19 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, wasn't there a thing with Amaranth's husband abusing her and forcing her to stream?

Guess only doujinshi are safe...

Hentai is the only ethical form of porn consumption

[–] bruhduh 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Some hentai genres beg to differ

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

They can beg all they want, in fact I hope they do.

[–] KpntAutismus 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

if it isn't crunched like many anime are.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I like stuff from naughtymachinima, lots of 3D stuff for that extra dimension

[–] KpntAutismus 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

some porn uses insane simulation physics which are rarely used anywhere else, and i fucking love it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Once they get proper sticky goo physics mastered, it'll be perfection

2d means no consent necessary and no worries beyond artist mistreatment or underpayment by the publisher.

Which is a molehill compared to the mountain of issues in the actual sex work industry.

[–] peopleproblems 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

2d? Is that like a genre I can avoid or something?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Sure, just opt away from anything that's created by artists and you're good.

However I was specifically positing an option outside of the sex work industry that doesn't have a significant history of drug abuse, sexual abuse, worker abuse, and overall unhealthy precedents.

[–] peopleproblems 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Oh you meant 2D as in illustration

[–] arken 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Were you imagining Paper Mario-style pornography? With real people somehow made to look flat?

[–] Aremel 1 points 9 months ago

Not the person you're replying to, but I too was confused. I thought it had something to do with some sort of contract known as "2d" in the industry because the d wasn't capitalized, as in 2D.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 9 months ago (1 children)

So no different than Hollywood then?

[–] rustyfish 17 points 9 months ago

I want to disagree, but somehow I can’t.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago

Not to mention the number of cases of abuse behind the scenes in that industry...
