1. do you ever get jealous?  I sure do. One part of me knows it's absolutley insane to do so.  the other part thinks, christ, what a great job, getting up every morning and having sex, even w/o emotional involvement, and even with several dozen stranger involved in the production hanging around, with Sativa Rose or Charmane Star or...  And why wasn't i smart enough to try to enter that career path way back when I was 19, strong as a bull, and hornier than a maximum security lifer in 24-hour lockdown?  Shit.

2. do you ever compare the male performers to yourself, and find them no more special than yourself?  i sure do, and I know this is, if not crazy, iffy and borderline.  Or maybe it's just sour grapes?

That's why i'm watching a lot less porn than I used to.

Porn is created with the viewer in mind and not for the porn stars themselves.

If you're worried about how YOU might be rated/reviewed then it might be worthwhile to do the comparison. But I've never carried those thoughts into any session. If you do then I'm guessing your "performance" might be hindered.

Find some of the "Porn Bloopers" for an inside look and possibly a bit of a reality check. Besides..... some are damn funny.

Jealous, nah.  I'm too old to get jealous of those guys.  But once the old pecker gets hard, it probably isn't too much different than those guys' tools.  Maybe a little shorter. lol  Since I have read what it's really like on a porn set, not sure I could do it like that anyway.  

Now, to have sex with some of those babes, that's a different story.  Just wish I could afford a few pornstar encounters.  However, would they be any better than the providers I have seen?  Who knows?
I hope to find out this summer, watch for review.

I was asked by a friend/provider/fetish porn veteran if I would do a porn loop with her.
After a couple of hours I was thoroughly exhausted(but NOT delightfully so).

It's entertainment, moreover it IS acting. Being jealous of a guy screwing a beautiful woman on film is fairly counterproductive especially when all I have to do is pick up the phone and book an appointment with one of my equally beautiful favs if I get the urge to do what said actor is doing.

I enjoy watching it. Get the latex gloves with some astroglide and get a release. Make sure you have some paper towels to catch the load, lol. If you are planning to see a provider in a day or 2 I don't recommend that you watch porn or jackoff.

Read Christy Canyon's autobiography for a description of how often the guy's cock fails to perform, and how quickly his career ends when it does.

There's some good reasons why so few guys perform with so many ladies. Actually keeping it going on a scene that might take 4 hours to shoot is pretty high-stress. The stress reduces the hydraulics necessary. The guy has to stay hard all the way through it, and then there's the money shot. You have to cum up with it on demand, in about one minute.

And then there's the fact that the money in porn is declining. It's too easy and cheap to shoot now. You go to youporn.com and you find tons of it, for free. All of the old guard companies are in decline.

For me, I always imagine the cock in the scene is mine. It helps if you never see the guy's face, so you could insert your own mug. Jealousy is really a wasted emotion watching porn.  

I don't get jealous because it is just a job.  You are under the control and constraints of a director and the script.  You don't really get to do what you want when you want to. You can't come when you want to.  If it is anything like the regular movie I was an extra for, most of the time nothing is happening.  I suspect a lot of the times the guys jerk themselves almost to orgasm before they start filming the cum shot.  I would probably have to keep from laughing out loud from all the fake screaming/groaning from the actresses.  The environment as you mentioned is the sexiest either with other people wandering around either.

As to comparng the male performers, no.  I am a little larger than average but not huge so I don't worry about that.  I think they are getting about minimum wage to do it, their careers don't last very long so unless they go to the other side of the camera when they are done, they really haven't got much out of it except for some notoriety.

Guess that must be why I still like watching porn.  I don't try to identify with the males at all.  Just watch the females.

First, I hate porn. It makes women look like they all want to get "fu_ _ed" the same, harsh way. Like with any porn, after about three minutes of it I'm bored. Second, men shouldn't compare themselves to porn stars, nor should women. Providing and Porn are a part of a fantasy world, and most of the men we would want don't make love to -- I repeat "make love" not fu_ _ the way they do in porn, do not take lessons from Porn movies.

Also, a piece of advice to men who hobby: Just because we're providers does not mean we are nymphomaniacs. Yes, I love sex but I don't get my vibrator out three times a day anymore. We obviously like what we do but I'm sure if we struck oil tomorrow, a lof of us would retire -- still have sex but not with hobbyists and get paid for it.


End of story.

Hugs,
Ciara

First, I've met male pornstars - Including the legendary Ron Jeramy - and I've met him on various occasions spanning 2 decades.

See the movie "Porn Star: The Legend of Ron Jeremy" - Read the book "Ron Jeremy: The Hardest (Working) Man in Showbiz."

I am not jealous of any porn star - and oddly enough my interest in porn has declined so much since porn's golden age - it is not funny.  You know, when they ACTUALLY acted!  the days of Annette Haven, Gloria Leonard, Marilyn Chambers, Seka and a cast of other luminaries...  Now?  it is who can do the grossest deed, or the most degrading of acts....  not exactly what I would like.  Have I been with pornstars... yup.  I find them to be interesting people, but no more so that some of the providers either reviewed or not reviewed.... and a few providers are incredibly more interesting than any pornstar I can imagine - including Jenna J!  (Currently I list 4 in that category - All are incredibly bright, all have "a life" outside of the hobby and all are as beautiful on the inside as the outside!)

Getting back to Ron.  I actually feel sorry for the guy - and genuinely like the guy- he is ALWAYS friendly and generous with his time for fans... He is also very funny - but also very honest.... and in his honesty is why I am  not jealous of him.  For while he has had the great luck to bang beautiful women and get paid for it... in his own words, you get the sense that he feels that he has missed out on other things in life... some of which I have had the joy and pleasure of having....

Once a work colleague got mad at me for always commenting on the accomplishments of my kids... while that colleagues kid got into serious trouble with drugs and some illegal acts....  I gently reminded that person that while my kids were doing well, I was the participant in a failed marriage... while their marriage was rock solid with a true partner who is able to stand toe-to-toe to help their daughter... and stand by their partner...  

in short, no jealousy.... as I am mature enought to know that the grass is always greener... or taller or more abundant on some side of the fence... but my side has the stream flowing through it.

when porn looked as if it would rival hollywood....

one of the best movies about women - making it on their own was "Roommates"  Staring Ron Jeramy, Veronica Hart, Jamie Gillis, Lisa Deleuuwe.... and others... truly an interesting perspective

If you took out the sex, this movie would be tons more realistic that "Sex and the City" any day, without the cutsieness of Sara J parker et al...

but as to the current lot?  you cannot even know who the new stars are, they are rotated in and out so fast... you never really know if they can act... I have to say, I've lost significant interest in porn...  for while the guys and gals are still having sex for view, there is very little they offer in terms of value to watch.

And I would hope that if some of you were to strike oil tomorrow (on a piece of land that the environmental wackos will let you drill) you would still provide.... as that might be the only way some of us working schlobs... might be able to spend some wonderful time with yas....

I'm not a big fan of porn. I've seen a couple of ladies who had it playing on the TV, but when I have live pussy right there in front of me, why do I want to look at someone else having sex? I've never even been able to sit through an entire porn movie. Would I like to fuck a porn star? Of course I would. I've always been partial to the personal touch.

This is where the camera is shot from or near the guy's point of view. All you can see is his body and dick being sucked and fucked. If you have a laptop, portable DVD player, or a newer phone, you can set it up so that it make a virtual scene and can be pretty fulfilling.
There's a lot of this stuff on youporn and redtube.

As a Baby Boom Generation guy I actually prefer the the porn of today over the porn of the 80's.

I don't want porn stars to act. I don't want them to have a script. I don't want a plot. I want them to fuck. I want to see hardcore lust. Two (or three or four) people who need a good fuck. I want to see a huge cock driving into a tight pussy. And hearing a woman cry out in pleasure. That's the fantasy. The carnal lust of it all.

Porns today know how to get right to it. I've barely fast-forwarded thru a new porn today. But old porns, I'm fast forwarding all the time.
