    ****. No.

    I have no interest in, or respect for, someone who's entire marketable skillset is "I **** people on camera for money".

    that's a very narrow mindet view

    alot of porn stars are actually highly educated, and have many other very usefull ''skillsets'' as you call it

    Sure they do. That's why they're staring in a "Bang Bros" video. How many have you met? I live in one of the top 3 cities in the US where porn is filmed. When I worked in post production, I met hundreds of both men and women porn "stars". With rare exception, they were idiots who didn't look beyond the next day and the next paycheck. They're only "highly educated" if your baseline for "education" is Laos.

    Seriously, if you had a marketable skillset, you'd use it to create an enduring career that made a consistent and dependable income. Especially when you know that for every Stoya, Sasha Grey or Jenna Jameson, there are literally thousands of wannabes who never made it and washed out. Hell, look at Sasha Grey. Since "going legit", she's been in nothing but crappy, direct to video releases that you've never heard of.

    You live in a fantasy world, where you want to believe that the people in the video you're masturbating to have fulfilling lives with day jobs and this is something they do on the side. The reality is that they are often broken, shallow people who have little or nothing else to fall back on to support themselves.

    I'm not a moralist but I am a pragmatist and, pragmatically speaking, hooking up with a porn "star" is about as wise as betting on an inside straight.

    alot of bull**** right there, typical for someone who hasn't achivede anything, and ofc american, do you by any chance live in the bible belt?

    also, a simple google search tells me, that you're the one without a clue, as there are many with high IQ who succed after their porn time, and yes ofc some fail, but people fail in every line of work, so nothing out the ordinary there

    i really can't be bothered to deal anymore with your post, it shows that you are out of touch with realities


    oh and the answer the OP, i wouldn't have a problem with dating a pornstar, i don't judge people based on their jobs

    I can give one example of what Drenus is saying. Google Asia Carrera and Mensa. I had the opportuity to meet her when she was in NYC for a Mensa event. She was one of the speakers and we sat at the same table for the dinner. She's extremely intelligent, well read, and has an amazing personality. I didn't know who she was (I knew her real name but I had no idea she was Asia Carrera until I was talking with one of my colleagues later in the evening). People who have very high IQs don't do well in social situations because of various reasons, one of which is that they feel awkward because their intelligence level is so far above the average persons...its like living is a world of pre-schoolers as a graduate student. You can't have a conversation with anyone because they think you're talking down to them and you feel like they aren't understanding what you're trying to convey.

    The whole point of that was to say that Ms. Carrera has an extremely difficult time being sociable with some of us not because she's a snob but because she has one of the highest IQs of any of the female members and my buddy was all googly-eyed because her and I got along so well (yes, he did ask if I got her number or if I'd hook him up with a date and no, she's married). There are several other examples of Mesna members in the adult industry and several former adult stars were formerly or are currently in positions as architectural engineers, science engineers, physicists of some type, etc.

    It's fine and dandy to have negative opinions about those people but if your basis for those feelings is that they are some sort of moron with low self-esteem and a backwards sense of self-worth then maybe you should use Google a bit more often and before you spout off.

    So then they're lazy to not want to use those skillsets and would rather be a filmed prostitute?

    I have more respect for strippers than I do 'adult film' stars, but not by much. I'd give one the time of day and that's about it. Besides, they're not all that attractive from what I've seen.

    Just one last thought, wouldn't that be like throwing a hotdog down a hallway?

    Depends on the hot dog.

    On topic, date yes, marry prob not.

    Very Narrow Minded.

    For most it is the only choice to make money in an environment today where it is difficult to make a living.

    When I was younger I worked along side a girl, one of the nicest girls out there, always thinking of others and willing to help people.

    She had to do some topless modeling and adult mags, not because she wanted to, but because she had to for her kids. She got a lot of flack from people in the town she lived, and because she looked like her sisters a lot some targeted her sister and slashed her car's tires etc.

    Would I date a porn star, yes I would, at least they are nicer than "normal" people who take a negative view on things.

    People are people. And you can't put all of them in the same basket because of the failures of some. That would explain why most of the world hates Muslims on a whole, all because of the actions of a very minute percentage of them that are extremists, when they are not.

    It is about time the world realizes this is not the 19th century anymore, the Church does not rule, and people have rights and one of them is to work and provide for family.

    May I ask, how much porn have you watched? A lot right? So is it not hypocritical of you to churn out how horrible these porn stars are when you don't personally know them when you actually watch them for your gratification?

    If I liked the woman and she liked me back I would not mind hooking up with a porn star.

    "May I ask, how much porn have you watched? A lot right? So is it not hypocritical of you to churn out how horrible these porn stars are when you don't personally know them when you actually watch them for your gratification?"

    You ask me how much porn I have watched and then you go on to build a strawman argument without waiting for an answer.

    Do you see how that negates the possibility of any discussion of the matter? If you want to ask the question again and talk about it, sans strawman, we can discuss it.

    I am neither young nor do I glorify porn, at the same time I don't decry it either. What I have done thus far is make statements based upon my experience with meeting the...contractors in that line of work. Based upon that experience, I have a very strong aversion to being intimate or having a relationship.

    Bringing up a few random samples doesn't negate a trend line, no matter how hard you want to wish it does nor how many ad hominem attacks that someone engages in. Take a course in statistics, or any sort of large sample charting, and the .0001% that have been named are outliers. The porn industry is a $13 billion dollar a year industry. Does anyone with any sort of sense genuinely believe that this is accomplished by a set full of MENSA members ****ing in their free time?

    No matter how many time the refrain of "But...but...but...NARROW MINDED!" is said, it simply doesn't negate the reality of the numbers. Math doesn't lie. It's a high turn over industry that feeds on broken people and discards them when they can no longer generate cash for the production company.
