First off, I am not trying to star a war or flame you. Just pointing out a flaw in your argument. Just look at it from a logic perspective. And if you take offense and want to get angry and fight me, that is not my intention and I don't really have time to waste in getting some petty thread war.
Reread what you posted for "The are pornstars. This endless debate is downright silly."
Quoted from your own post:
"If some third party publishes my book, I am a professional writer/author. If some gallery represents my paintings I am a professional artist. If some record company released my music I am a recording artist. If some magazine puts me in their fold-out section, then my Angel is a Centerfold. Maybe not a playmate or whatever, but a centerfold. Thank you J. Giles band.
And is someone pays me to fuck on some media I am a pornstar. "
That seems quite dogmatic to me. If this, then that.
You can't be dogmatic and then disagree with mrfrench's post on the grounds that he is being dogmatic. You were dogmatic first. And then further state that this whole thing can't be dogmatic, because everything is relative to a certain perspective. You are just contradicting yourself.
Either hold firm that everything is relative or hold firm that there is a certain defined criteria. Don't try to play both sides.

We are talking apples and oranges -- I buy and rent DVDs of regular Hollywood content, but I cannot even place a number of years on how long it has been since I have done either for Porn content -- But, again, that is a side debate of little interest to me. I have a ton of old VHS and DVD and they never see the light of day. It is all internet for the vast majority of porn consumers.
The narrow definition some desire to give to who, in their opinion, is a pornstar, and thus, I guess, worthy of mention on this board, has always struck me as inexplicable and antiquated extending all the way back to the days of Fast Eddie. It is 2015. But, as I say, it's no one's job to convince anyone of anything. The marketplace of ideas, if given free reign, will decide all such matters. To me, the next Stoya doing fetish work online, and the next 81-year-old flawless cam girl to show up in a model house in Chatsworth to film her first two weeks of scenes are of infinitely more interest to me as my idea of the current model of pornstar than some name circa 1998 who happened to be on videotape or whoever. But everyone has their own flavor to savor in this big wide world.
