So here's how it works for most women --

Lured by the easy money, 18 - 20 yo women get involved in porn. They begin by making 4 - 6 videos per week. Many say they won't do certain sex acts, with anal sex being a particular fetish, but once on the set and under pressure, they almost always cave in.

Pretty soon, it's double penetration, double vag / anal (yes, that's right, 2-in-1), with multiple partners, some of whom are cool but many of whom are gross. With each video, you're less of a fresh face, and so you get paid less, unless you're willing to do more extreme acts.

Then there's the drugs. Lots of meth, lots of coke, some heroin ... worst case, you get hooked and you need plenty of money to maintain your habit. So there are more videos with more stuff ya gotta do.

If you do well, after a few years you abandon videos and you start headlining at clubs, dancing. You can make a lot more money doing that than you'll make doing videos, but very, very few women get to that level. Most, if they start dancing, do it because they don't have to fuck gross guys as much. Some start turning tricks.

By the time you're 25, your sell-by date is pretty much up. Let's hope to God you've saved up a fortune to send yourself to college, and get on with some other line of work that will last longer. More than likely, a woman who starts in porn because she's broke at age 18 will be broke at age 25.

Right now, the big porn superstar is Jenna Jameson. Her autobiography, _How to Make Love Like A Porn Star_ is a best seller, and I'd recommend reading it. Her website (which I've seen in the Members area) is boring, by current gonzo standards, because she's got enough juice to say "no" to the things she just won't do. She's also got a great personality, and I love it when she's on Stern. And she seems to be doing just fine.

But she's the exception. You might do better, but I doubt it.

Basically, it's one damn tough life. Don't underestimate it. People don't pay you for doing nothing, and a lot of what these women get paid to do they don't like very much.
