Wow, after reading this I feel like such a newbie to porn in general. I basically joined my first pay site around 2004, never joined again until about 2007. Before that, yeah I glanced at playboys, penthouse, hustler, etc. in magazines. But, in reality, I've only been surfing and gathering content for a little over 2 years. I'm just a big newbie here! :)
Great response. By any chance to you remember the site that was your first? Would just be interesting to see what it was with all that info you provided for sites in general.
First site was Naughty America and well, they have not changed much. Which means, that's the exact problem with the content of this site. Everything is so damn repetitive that the scenes get old after a months stay in my opinion. Therefore, I put pretty much the same.
I have never passed up content to where a model looks too young but I have passed up content where the concept attempts to depict the model as being too young. Meaning, when I see content with the girl being dressed in knee high colorful socks, pig tails, stuffed animals, an obvious childs room, and so on; it gets skipped over. Good thing though, I have not been to sites that have content like this often due to personal preferences to begin with but of the content I have seen with this, no thanks. So, basically, what Drooler said.
True that lawyers are looked at as assholes mostly in the USA but they are seen as people who have accompolished something and contributed to society in general. Coming home to papa and saying you want to be the most successful lawyer will give cheers while saying you are going to be the most successful porn star; well you can pretty much guess the reaction.
I have to go with no at this point. Pornstars are seen as outcasts in the entertainment world and prostitutes as a whole in society. Prostitutes were looked at in a positive way in history but not in todays standards. I think this applies almost everywhere in the developed countries. While more countries in Europe and other parts are more lax about sex in general, I think porn and its stars is still frowned upon in the majority of these countries. Honestly, do I think they are doing something so harsh that they are less than a 'standard' human being? No. Most stars see this as a job and I think it's a lot more healthier for these people to get in to the adult entertainment industry if they want to make money by doing sexual acts. At least (for the most part) it's a lot safer and you know who the clientle is beforehand. However, I'm sure most stars still are not excited when they come home for the holidays and tell their family that they found a new job; AND IT'S A PORN STAR!!!!
Totally agree with everything you said as far as the actual model is the final decision in terms of how long she decides she wants to stay in the business. I am with most with the fact of the matter that porn awards are pretty much null and pointless. However, I did try to think a bit hypothetically and say, "hey, if awards are going to happen, mind as well be by a panel of fans". But, I pretty much don't care about them at all even though I chose fans should the panel. I guess it is the combo of the industry decisions with the models decisions plus the fans wanting more that decide which are the superstars. There is obviously no clear cut answer at all.
Yes, Jenna did bring that all american blonde with titty implants to the mainstream porn world :(
Interesting take but just like all entertainment, I think it's probably truly a combination of both the fans and the industry. However, I believe the industry finds the product (this being the model) and can present it well (in terms of porn, a well made scene) but it is truly up to the fans to pass along the information to boost the career. Of course, the next superstar of porn appearing on some amateur website with a small amount of users (or a dvd title in a lower tier company) will probably go un-noticed by most due to the lack of viwers in general. So I agree that it is up to the industry at that point. However, the industry is a bit different than the pre-2000's when it comes to entertainment but especially adult entertainment. A model exclusive to the internet can now get extremely more popular than the stars of film. A new model who knows she has it, can just appear on 2 or 3 sites with a extremely large population base and that can jump start her career, why? because of the fan base population. Of course, the industry is the outlet but I think the fans design how far they are going to go.
Another reason I think this but it just popped in my head and could not be entirely true is I remember when I used to rent dvd's from the more popular companies (vivid, wicked, etc) and there were always scenes with models that just never took off (however, they are vivid girls/wicked girls) which basically means they 'made it' in terms of the industry but obviously just could not pick up a good fan base to true stardom due to the fact of NOT having a true fan base. These stars from these films I never really saw again which I think was due to the fact that the fans really did not respond well.
You mention that the reason some of your more favorite models over the years were now gone despite being appealing due to the fact that they were attempting to 'sell' themselves as a package and did not get it right. I obviously agree, but why don't you think they are not here? You said they did not get it right, but did you mean get it right with the industry or the fans? I would lean more towards they did not get it right with the fans and due to this, they are not around anymore. Just my opinion.
As far as Jenna Jameson goes, I believe she came around when porn was in a transition from the 80's and early 90's when the models were in my opinion, not up to par by today's standards. I believe she brought the youth with glamour combo that the industry is now to the forefront. Whenever I see 80's stuff, all the models tend to look extremely amateurish and if the most popular models in their prime were in a line up with the popular ones of today; I think they would clearly be overlooked in terms of looks alone. However, I do believe Jenna Jameson is overshined in terms of the stars of today. But, in that line up in terms of looks in her prime, she would not be overlooked. I believe her career took off due to perfect timing when she was introduced.
Honestly, I was almost tempted to put pornstars don't deserve awards because I think it almost creates a mockery of the industry by giving awards. But, as I thought about it more, I suppose some production does go in to the upper echelon of porn in terms of well known companies. However, I do feel that any company that puts any effort in to a bigger budget 'porn with plot' would obviously when any award regardless of the quality of the sex scenes or acting just because they went forth and made such a movie. So, I suppose with any panel that is involved, it's almost obvious who will win once certain nominees are up. Therefore, I picked fans as the panel because I think not only are they the ones who buy and know quality after seeing so much stuff, they definitly dictate rising stars careers and how long their career are. The demand from fans from certain stars is what keeps the business going. It's obvious the industry can get some average looking amateurs and make a film with plenty of audience willing to watch it but when it comes to the superstars of the industry; it's all about the fans. Just my 2 cents....
Have to say no to this, plain and simple. I'm a private man that enjoys watching others do the nasty. I'll keep my personal agendas to myself, for myself.
I have not actually tried anal sex in my relationships. I have, however, accidentally stuck it in the anus during sex in a drunken sloppy sexcapade and got the classic 'dolphin' noise from my partner when it happened. I can't say she enjoyed it at all, maybe because it was such a surprise? :) So, I put I have but my partner did not enjoy it. As for since, it's something I think I'll let my partner bring up, I'm happy with getting head and having good ol' plain vaginal sex.
Vizio is a good company, it's actually a branch of LG which makes good products for 'cheaper'. Kinda like how lenovo was considered cheaper products of IBM but still basically the same quality and company.
Ah yes, the age thing in porn. I thought once you get in to porn you are 18 and 19 forever until you hit 25 then you are now a MILF?
Ok to be honest, of course teen sites feature 18 and 19 year olds. But obviously, it's probably not even the models lying about their age or do they really care much. So, the site will always maintain that they are teens. It is what it is. The worst is when they dress up a 22 year old that looks a bit younger in those colorful knee high socks and pig tails with a stuffed animal and go, look she's a teen. Anyways, I put most are lying because the allure of advertising as a teen site is attractive but most who get in to porn end up knowing the models and with blog sites now and so on, it's obvious you can find the actual age info on your favorite models nowadays. But, in these sites, of course she will be 18 for 6 years.
At this point, I usually hook up an external HD to my ps3 and watch photos and videos on my LCD TV. Sometimes a video will not be supported so I use my laptop hooked to my TV via HDMI or just use my laptop if I get lazy. But, 90% of the time it's on my tv via ps3.
Agree with mostly everyone here when it comes to personal lives of anyone. I see celeberties as humans just like everyone else and I can care less what nancy at work ate for dinner last night or what she wore to go pick up her kids. However, some details in a bio or blog of themselves (in terms of porn stars) can be interesting as a read when I am extremely bored. Can I say I am truly interested and seek out this material? No. But, if it's right there I would probably read a bit. So, to fully respond to the poll, no I am not interested in the lifestyle of porn stars in general but a small bio can be interesting sometimes.
I only have a sister and would never give her anything. However, to be hypothetical, if I had a brother around the same age I would probably just give him met-art type stuff. I believe someone elses fetish in porn should be kept to themself in real life. It is 10x easier to discuss and let others know with the veil of anonymity. But, I believe Met-art type pictures and videos can be enjoyed by all because it is displaying the natural beauty of women in a classy way. I suppose it all depends, I have watched some straight hardcore stuff with my friends but it's not something I've done a lot or would want to do often. Funny thing is, why would anyone (let alone a brother) want to borrow someone elses porn anyways. That's got to be a awkward moment for sure because it's quite obvious what a person wants porn for....
No change on shaven snatch for me. However, I do think this is a younger generation thing for the most part to prefer shaven pussy. But, I'm sure the older folk after seeing shaved snatch for so long in the new porn have persuaded them and put now prefer shaven pussy in this poll. Just a guess but I think I may be right on this one.
I'll have to go with asian sites. However, I'm not talking about Asian Americans but foreign asian women sites. There are too many just DVD Japanese sites, too many fake Thai girl sites, and not enough of women from other countries in general. If a site forked over the money for quality Japanese models in an exclusive content site (not necessarily hardcore content), they would bank for sure. This goes for all the other places as well. These are my favorite types of women (especially Japanese) and all the sites besides a few just seem to be garbage and too far in between :(
Nothing would be better to satisfy my porn observing addiction than to be the one directly recording the content I so dearly love and cherish!
Well, I suppose being the porn star involved would be great but unfortunantly (fortunantly?) I'm not a scum bag that feels screwing that many women is as satisfying as keeping one or a few closer and being more intimate. Hmm, who knows though, that is easy money and completely less stressful than my jobs right now (or is it??).
Anyways,
let me capture that action how I like it, hopefully everyone else would like it too!
I bought a Sony surrond sound in a box for about $200 a few years ago which came with a receiver, subwoofer, 2 right speakers, 1 center, and 2 rear speakers. It's actually very nice for the price and delivers loud and clear. I think it might even be cheaper to go this route plus everything looks nice and matches. I can only use it during the daytime because it get's so loud so I can only use it every once in awhile. But, when I can, it truly adds to the overall experience of the movie. I'd suggest getting one if you are a lover of movies in general!
I'd say any kind of writers should get the most recognition. It's funny how actors and directors get the most when the story is usually even created and forged by someone completely different but yet these people get a small text credit at the beginning and ending of a film. If it was not for these creators, the film would never even be created by a director or actor.
I also want to think that great writers of fiction novels should be the most recognized. Honestly, creating an original novel that uses one's imagination and clearly written in text for others to understand takes a lot of talent. Ever tried describing a dream to someone in a clear way that they understand it? While not all stories comes from dreams but it's still the conscience mind and memory that is needed to create these stories and to correctly brainstorm these ideas to create a story for another to understand and enjoy should be recognized the most by society.
Too bad this is only half true, film stars and directors are the most recognized these days. While they are talented and I enjoy almost all the other options in the poll, in my opinion, writers have the most talent and should be the most recognized.
I think Drooler might be referring to something I've actually heard a few of my buddies talking about. It had something to do with that if a woman ate something more sweet, that when she is in arousal and the juices flow, that the actual sweetness from the sugar would make these juices more sweet to the taste. However, I remember being a bit perplexed how this was possible and how much of a myth it was. One of my friends actually said it worked but c'mon, it's a bunch of men talking about stupid sex stories over a few beers and I've heard a lot of bullshit in my short life already during these discussions. So who knows, I guess it's time for some quality scientific research on the subject! How about us PU's pick the subjects and we can be 'taste testers' :)
Maybe I'm wrong about what Drooler was referring to and it is just what pussy should taste like with a nice list of options :) Anyone else hear about this 'rumor' that my friends were talking about?
EDIT: Actually, now that I think of it, I heard this story goes both ways or maybe it was for males who ate sweeter things and that their cum tasted sweeter. Maybe I'm totally off and it was neither :) Can anyone help me out and let me know that I'm not nuts.
Well I was using that site and the others as an example of some of the better looking and more professionally looking videos I've seen on a site in my recent stays. However, I think that the demo might have been the wrong choice for which video to promote for their site. Besides, the whole preview page for that site is actually horrendous. However, I did not join this site on a whim and it was several other of the more upstanding PU'ers that guided me towards this site and they were the ones who told me about how well these videos were produced. Plus, I suppose we will just have to agree to disagree about the site and it's videos, they blew me away after watching more than 75% of the content on a large screen LCD TV when I compare to the other sites that used 640 X 480 or 720 X 480 in the range of 1,000 to 1,500 kbps which I thought was the debate to begin with. It was just one site as an example, I'm not saying they have the best videos I've ever seen, it was just a site I remembered off hand and had access to recently using a higher format than what was discussed and had way better looking videos than the majority of the sites I've been to that used lower resolutions and bitrates.
As for the argument of comparing any site's video quality when talking about 'HD' to a blu-ray, I find that a bit overwhelming to even think that these can be compared. A standard blu-ray disc is 25 GB's and a movie is 1 hour and 30 mins to 2 hours long. Let's say there are 30 mins of special features. A site's videos range from 15 to 30 mins. So, lets say an average blu-ray is 1 hour and 45 mins with 30 mins of special features. This uses up a standard blu ray at 25 GB and if you average in a site's average scene which is 20 mins, that's about 8.75 scenes for one blu-ray. However, that means that each scene would roughly be at 2.7 to 3.0 GB's if it was in true blu ray quality. Therefore, these scenes from sites are obviously not that high and therefore could never be the same quality or even in the same class as a true blu ray scene because a 20 min scene at the usual 1280 X 720 format is only 300-800 MB. Yes, a standard blu ray is at 1920 X 1080 and if these videos used that res, they would probably jump up in size but no where near 2.7 to 3.0 GB's. So, what I'm trying to say, is that at the encoding that most sites do at 1280 X 720 and 4002 kbps with the quality I've seen, they are extremely nice and the comparison to blu ray just seems outrageous.
Maybe I'm just crazy and my standards are a bit lower or something, I just think that at that format (1280 X 720, 4002 kbps) and with certain sites, they are remarkable for the size I'm downloading at.
Hope this all makes sense and I'm not trying to be a smartass or anything, hope we can talk about some other things soon!
I'm afraid I will get way too bored and this hobby will become nonexistant for me. While I do get a bit worried about my money situation, so far, I've been pretty good at staying within my budget and knowing when and if I can join a site. Sometimes, having to wait a whole month or more to be able to join a site whets my appetite for the content even more. However, if I get disapointed that wait can be a large bummer for sure. But, all-in-all, it has to be my fear of boredom. While I feel I still have a laundry list of sites I want to go to, the list of places new to add to join is becoming less and less each month as I join more sites. Therefore, I'm joining more than I add to join so eventually I think I may be at a limit to what I will join. Hopefully the sites I love the most will keep on providing the content I already love and can keep me there.
I have almost every video from InFocusGirls and I watch them on a 42 inch LCD TV. I can account for them being just as good or even better than the hundreds of DVD's I've rented. That's strange that you find the lighting for that site to be bad because I've found the locations to be extremely well lit and the outside scenes are always on a sunny day. In fact, I'd go out on a limb and say these videos are some of the most professional scenes I've seen on a site so far. In these videos, I've even seen the little light blonde hairs that women can get which I've only seen in well lit areas and real life. While I'll agree the earlier videos are not as good but I'd say less than 1/4 are from the site's beginning and used those formats. While this is my opinion, I don't know what else to say besides the fact that if you found videos better than this, I'd like to know which sites so I can check them out.
