First off, Hi everybody. Nice to meet you all. These are some issues I'd like to weigh in on. 1) Fake tits are good. Enough with the complaining about "bolt ons". Perfectly shaped tits are a good, All-American sign of personal economic progress. I tiny chick with huge fake boobies is lovely, and should no be blasted for being fake. Why? Because PORN IS FAKE. And the best porn stars embrace this fact. 2) Industry's economic decline. Piracy is here to stay. Rather than focusing on how to stop it, the industry should find more ways to advertise products with porn. I realize that "family friendliness" predominates most mainstream product advertising, but I do think that products that are sold almost entirely to men (like tools for example) could feasibly be advertised by porn. We are a few short years from the point where movies of DVD quality can be downloaded in under 10 seconds. Once that happens, their will be little to no value in selling porn itself. One must use porn as a medium to advertise other products. 3) Race and porn. A touchy subject around here lately. I assess the "girls who don't" because of race in this way: There are two kinds of women in porn. Type A would do porn for free in her garage and post it to the internet just for kicks. These are the Nina Hartley and Janet Mason's of the world. They almost universally do IR because they ACTUALLY LIKE MEN in the first place. Type B represents 98% of the women who do porn: the ones who do it just for the money. It should be no surprise then that the type B girls are the ones who demonstrate low moral character by engaging in race tactics. A woman who is comfortable with who she is (type A) does what makes her happy. A woman who hates herself (type B) lacks moral character and will always do what is most profitable, whether or not it is immoral. Being a bigot is one of the most immoral things a person can be, and thus the women with no self respect will become (or pander to) bigots for profit. The type A woman loves herself and loves men, and thus will not stoop to such classless behavior. 4) I don't care what you say, Jada Fire is an amazing fox. I love everything about her. I am deeply frustrated by the fact that DARK SKINNED beauties like her cannot make it into Hollywood because the powers that be measure a Black woman's beauty by it's proximity to whiteness. Thus --- like Halle Berry and Thandie Newton become stars because the look white. 5) Jules Jordan does a good job. Most porn directors are garbage. That's a fact. Jules is one of the few guys who can A) properly light things and B) use favorable camera angles. When someone does something good, they should be praised for it, so big ups to him. 6) Shoot booty from the side, PLEASE! The camera has no depth perception, so the best way to establish a flat tummy and round behind is FROM THE SIDE. Figure it out. 7) Most of what's wrong with the industry today is the people who run it. European porn does not have nearly the product quality and personal conduct problems that the American porn industry does. Why? Because the American porn industry is largely run by money grubbing scumbags who couldn't care less about the quality of their product. The European industry, while containing scumbags, is largely directed by the art-house community. As a result the porn stars look better, have a better attitude towards sexual hangups (anal,IR,swallowing) and are generally more psychologically healthy. We need more artists in porn. More people who do it for the love of the game, rather than the dollar value of it. Would this mean some less attractive performers? Possibly. European women are more sexually open than American women. But it would be worth the trade off to have sex-positive women working with artistic minded production companies to produce high quality porn. The status quo of self-loathing second-tier models humiliating themselves at the behest of low-balling scumbag producers has resulted in a glut of low quality porn. And that is a bad thing. 8) Lastly, our toaster. I fucking hate it. Though it has a lighter/darker knob it only seems to produce two outcomes: raw and burnt. I like lightly toasted bread, but that piece of shit toaster would rather burn one half of the toast then compromise with me. I think I'll shoot it.

1) You're god damn right. Tits are awesome, fake or not. Sure I love some of those crazy eastern bloc beauties with tiny waists and F cups, but the bottom line is I'm not feeling/fondling/paying for/marrying or otherwise physically engaging the tits I see in a movie. If they look authentic enough or even a little too perky for their size... I don't fucking care that they aren't real. The "realness" of porn is entirely unimportant to me. If it looks real it might as well be real for all I give a fuck. 2) I have no idea what advice to give to the porn companies about piracy. If you wanted a lot of porn and you were computer saavy you could get all the porn you could possible handle for about $20 a month. Not $20 a month for one site but $20 a month for a high-speed and unlimited Usenet account. I'm not going to get into it here but suffice to say that unless porn consumers take the moral high ground and make it their goal to pay high prices for low quality DVDs just to support their favorite porn studios... then for the cost of a DVD a month they can have *all* the DVDs published that month. As an industry they're simply going to have to figure out where the value-added part comes in that keeps people from pirating porn. 3) I'm sick of the race thing. I'm not even going to comment on it except to say that I had no idea how obsessed some people were with interracial porn until I started reading this forum. No. Idea. 4) Jada Fox is hot. Agreed. 5) I can't compete with the porn connoisseurship on this site. I'll admit to not knowing one director from another except for those with really identifiable styles like Andrew Blake. 6) I'm with you on that. More side shots and more back shots that show dynamic action instead of just a 2D booty. I love ass. Side profiles of ass that show just how crazy big it is compared to the waist are awesome. 7) Again... I can't make a huge judgement here except that as a whole (porn aside) I like the way Europeans view sexuality and anytime I travel for a time in Europe and come home I'm shocked all over again at what a bunch of sexual-weirdos Americans can be. 8) I fucking hate my toaster. I've always had $10 special toasters and they're always shit. About a month ago I started seriously looking for a nice big bad ass, built like a tank, toasts 6+ slices of bread, the settings dial actually does something, premium toaster. It's 2010... a god damn toaster should make good toast.

OK, so the new strategy for the IR trolls is to open yet another new account, and surround the IR trolling segment with meaningless filler, is that it? Like the herbal viagra spam that always has a paragraph of randomly-generated phrases to try to get past the spam filters?
SERIOUSLY don't you think your obsession with IR trolls is getting old? I agree that there may be too many IR threads but you need to chill a little. You are in every IR thread saying the same things.If you don't like IR just leave it alone. It is like a straight homophobic person going to gay forums. With you in this forum I won't be surprised if a fight breaks out and the thread gets locked.

Totally agree. But I think it is because so few of the porn girls have what it takes to look good from the side, the camerapersons get into a rut. Or there's this misguided notion of how porn should be shot. Here's a prime examle of a girl (Mz. Booty) who should get ample side-view treatment, but I haven't discovered any video yet where they did any decent side view of her. {SMDH}
I agree with the shooting from the side angle. Especially with cowgirl position. Like the little bit of Euro porn that i've seen. Piracy is wrong. Illegal, unethical, & immoral. Don't know what technological solution there is though. Jada Fire is hot. Needs to be more Dark skinned black porn actresses like Jada fire & Mrie Luv. And thinner, small butt, small breasted black porn actress's like Marie Luv. Ladies like her that don't fit the usual porn casting conventions. Like reading peoples thoughts on IR when they are well reasoned, no flaming, not calling ladies dodgers, no smears on reputations without proof, etc.
on the original post... 1) for some of your reasons, and for some you didn't say, I agree completely. I love 'em. 2) either change the business model like you're saying, or come up with something that you can't get through piracy. not something like locking down the dvd that would hurt even the people who paid good money only to find out they can't use it the way they want. i mean something like liner notes, in box extras...something you can't download. you know, free calendars, stuff like that. 4) you had me until you called halle berry ugly...god...she's hot...but the 'jada fire' comments, i agree completely. 7) again, i agree mostly on what you said. especially for directors, and the rest of the powers that be. the actors and actresses generally seem to like it. it's the people who select camera angles, sex positions, directors, etc...they are the ones who need to show more pride in their work. 8) I think 95% of all toasters suck. and it isn't related to cost. cheap and expensive toasters all suck alike. you'd think if we can put a man on the moon, design brilliant fighter jets, and have devices in the palm of our hands that are as powerful as desktop computers from just a few years ago, we could design something to toast our bread. it makes me angry every morning...or at least those days when i wake up early enough to try to make toast.
edited to add: just about the IR stuff...this is the only comment on this thread about it from me. i really like the other points brought up. but seriously...is it that hard to understand some people being upset about hearing people we look to as sexual goddesses saying "I love guys. I love girls. I love everything, fat like Ron Jeremy, ugly with bad shaving and hygiene, abusive and mean and spitting in my face, but you black guys who just gave me some money...you can never have me. I dislike you for no reason." Edited by - wraithlead on 1/9/2010 12:22:13 PM

HP's 'obsession' with IR trolls ia a lot younger than the obsession with IR. The problem is not with some's preference for IR, which of course, is fine to express here as often and as vehemently as one cares to. The problem is that the objective of bringing up IR is to insult girls who are percieved to be racist and to foment controversy, i.e. get a rise out of other posters with outrageous statements like all porn actors should do IR or forcing actors to do it is akin to rape. HP's effort to defuse another one of these arguments, far from risking another fight and locked thread, is just an atttempt, probably a futile one I'm afraid, to prevent just that. HP isn't the one that needs to chill out. Edited to corret the usual shitty typing. Edited by - duefuss on 1/9/2010 12:43:22 PM

1) Fake tits are horrible... a wood-killer and a deal breaker for me. 2) There's no evidence that the industry's economic decline is due to so-called piracy over other factors. But yes, the industry needs to move with the tech, and not just wring their hands a whine about file sharing. 3)There is only ONE race of humans. Anybody who tries to tell you differently is just looking for an excuse to be a bigot. 4) Fneah... 5) Fneeah... again. 6) I have no interest in fat-chick porn... your mileage may vary. 7) 95% of everything is crap... 8) So get a new one.

I can only comment of two of your rants. Don't know, don't care or have given up on the rest. 1. Don't like fake tits. Either in the movies or live. 2. The major factors affecting the performance of a toaster are the density and moisture content of the bread, neither of which are measured by any toaster I've ever owned (probably would require a probe). However, a good toaster can be consistent. It will toast a piece of bread with the same density and moisture content the same amount on a specific setting. Requires a bit of experimentation to get perfect toasting. For example, my current toaster will toast a slice of English Muffin bread (about 1.2" thick) if I set it on 2 and when it pops up, turn the slice around and upside down and toast it again set on 2. Perfect every time. Setting it on 4 or 5 will not produce perfection in a single pass. I haven't determined the setting for ordinary American white bread (more moist and less dense) nor whole wheat bread (more moist and more dense) or rye bread, etc.

3)There is only ONE race of humans. Anybody who tries to tell you differently is just looking for an excuse to be a bigot. As for the toaster, look into http://www.nextag.com/dualit-toaster/search-html
I don't know what your issue is, but all I did was state an opinion. I am allowed that. I didn't attack any board members, nor have I harped on the issue. I weighed in on the IR debate, that is all.Long time listener, first time caller. Get over yourself.Yeah, I thought I had alot to say. I was very glad to see the toaster responses, I was really on about that when I typed it. I was eating burnt toast at the time.I agree, and I do like her. I'd say that this is where the cheapness is killing porn. People just aren't willing to pay top dollar for crap. If the industry was producing more of what people wanted, instead of trying to make a buck with a formulaic approach, it would probably improve sales.By comparison to her ass? Yes. Let me make clear that I like ALL KINDS of women. I like thick ones, skinny ones, old ones, young ones, white ones, black ones. I love women period. As long as she's got some special quality (and that's sometimes hard to explain with words), I'll like her. Belladonna is a good example. She's nobody's supermodel, but there is something about her that men like. A deviousness, maybe. Tough to put your finger on, but it's appealing.
Actually he does. He needs to STFU about people he knows nothing about. I said like 8 things, and that's the only one he replied to. Moreover, he assumes my identity and motives, things he cannot know. Don't like my opinion, fine. Discuss my opinion. He attacked me personally, and that is unacceptable.1) To each his own. I like em. Bubbly and jubbly! Thing is, I am probably biased because I've never touched a fake boob in my life. Every woman I've been with has had real ones, as does the wife. So it should be noted that I am going coming from a purely visual standpoint. Also, I am of the generation of porn fans who started watching in the late 80's, early 90's when fake tits were all the rage. That probably has influenced my tastes. 2) I am curious to know what you think the cause for the decline are... 3) Agreed. If the Army taught me nothing else, it's that we are at our best when we see ourselves as brothers.This is a strange place to meet a toast expert, but thanks for the info. To be honest, I'm thinking of trying a toaster oven. The ones I have used in the past (belonging to others) seemed to do very well, particularly with English Muffins.
Here's the best toaster ever (in my opinion). It's a vintage Sunbeam Vista, from the 1960's I think. The new ones try to do too much (variable-width slots, bagel setting, quartz heaters, energy-efficient, electronic controls, etc.), so everything ends up being a compromise. They do lots of things OK, but they do none of them well. The Sunbeam Vista toasts bread excellently and consistently with nice range of browning adjustment. And bagels will fit if you flatten them a bit. And the coolest thing is it's automatic; there is no lever on the side.

If everyone DID shut the fuck up about stuff, including people, they know nothing about, everyone here, yourself included, would be pretty quiet. The issue about your IR comments is not, I think, about their quantity, i.e. the percentage they are of your total comment, but of their quality. If you like IR, that's dandy, but stuff like "the powers that be measure a Black woman's beauty by it's proximity to whiteness. Thus ugly cunts like Halle Berry and Thandie Newton become stars because the look white." steps way outside an expression of preference into the incitement of an argument, deliberately meant to upset folks and draw out people to insult. What else did you expect it to do? Personally, the stuff about type A and type B porn stars I thought was pretty good, until the actors who do it for money turned into bigots and immoral whatevers. I couldn't follow that, and I think THAT might be what set off the suspicions about your whole post being another of those dreadful IR threads. As you say, forums like this one are for the expression of opinion and the debate of that opinion, mostly friendly, I hope; sometimes not,of course, but here, at least, in my opinion and experience, seldom with beligerance or malice. If you don't wish to be challenged or judged for your opinions, don't give them here. For that matter, don't even express them to other people, because expressing opinions is and always has been about having them challenged, judged, and discussed.
What about the other 50+% of the population? As for toasters, I have lived without one for a long time, and I have always wondered why toast made in the oven is so fucking lame. Still, better than burnt toast. My advice is don't fall for fancy high-priced toasters. They have always sucked, in my experience.
No, it WAS about quantity. He claims that I am someone else posting under a new name. You don't read so good.I gave my opinion. If you are offended by my opinion, then fine. But I did not attack you or anyone else on this board. It has been my experience that dark skinned women are shelved in favor of light skinned women in the mainstream media. This is backed up by empirical evidence, as the vast majority of black women who make it in Hollywood as sex symbols are light skinned. Don't tell me you think light skinned women just happen to be more talented...This last paragraph makes no sense at all. I specifically said that I invite challenges to MY OPINION. This person attacked ME PERSONALLY without cause. If you can't see the difference between the two, that says more about you than than it does about me.

So now you're heading towards getting your own thread locked already? Come on. Not to mention I hardly ever posted in any IR thread so your statement doesn't even make sense applied to me.
MOD: Congrats, you're fighting already and insulting women. Two things that have gotten threads locked over the last few days. This shouldn't come as a surprise to you then.
