Maybe you read a difficult article but that article did point out that black women often get a shitty deal in the industry as they can't earn extra by having sex with white male performers for example because it's not regarded as IR in the industry. Likewise, the article pointed out Misty Stone earned significantly less starting out than her white female counterparts at the time though I hope she was talking about earnings for the same levels as neither she nor Aurora Snow clarified that in the article.

But when it comes to pay for black females specifically, is it all about racism or is some of it just cold business? What I mean is, does the average black girl scene sell as much as the average white girl scene? If it is about the same, then yes, they should obviously be paid the same. But if white girls are, in general, selling more than black girls, then you're asking the producer to pay the same amount but for lesser results. I guess it's a business ethics issue that I don't really have the answer to.

Seeing a white girl say, "Stick that big black cock into my tight white pussy" is going to sell a lot more than one of the few black girls in porn saying,

"Stick that medium sized white cock into my tight black pussy"

With porn it's all about the appeal of the women, then what guy they're in a scene with. The performer quoted in that article has been around awhile and has never appealed to me beyond an initial look see. Nothing against her personally, but I'd never pick up a scene for her unless she was in a scene with someone I actually wanted to see.

All were quoted in the article. At least you have outed ourself as not even having read the article you are commenting on.

People should be hired based on their talent and good looks in the porn industry. The porn industry should not start politically correct casting like Brazzers has in the past year. Politically correct casting will lead to very bad casting and complaints. Look at Brazzers when they started filming BBW content. Their staff deleted complaints, eventually removed comments, and edited down votes.

Customers want to watch attractive women at the end of the day.

As I said, there are many beautiful black women who fit the universal standards of beauty. Yet, most of those black women do not do porn. Most people purchase porn because they want to see the sexiest women by stereotypical standards. That is why pornstars like Nikki Benz are very popular. They have pretty faces, slim bodies, and big tits.

Not every person in society is going to agree that a particular person is attractive. Life never works that way. The reality is there are physical features that the majority of men find attractive. A majority does equal a universal point of view. It is widely accepted.

"Porn has always been a reflection of American values, so if these are the titles you see, these are the titles people are buying" [\i] and he continues "Porn is such a murky water to be a social activist it's hard for them to take you seriously"

Porn is a like any other business; the consumer taste drives the direction it's headed. This is easily quantified by widely available tools (let's not forget that porn is almost always an early adopter of many technological advancements including advance marketing analytics). If their feedback indicates that their "typical" consumer demographics skewed towards older white males, with a certain fetish for a young hot white female having sex with an older white guy (at least one whom the guy fapping to the scene can live vicariously through), then that's the direction the production dollars will be geared to. Is it ethical? Probably not but this is a cut throat industry with a few successful companies and lots of barely surviving laggards.

The one thing that wasn't mentioned in the article but I wish was addressed was how black females & males performers would gladly do IR work & refuse to shoot with a performer of their own ethnicity. I can contextualize the males (to a limit but let's be honest, very few males would say no) since IR pays them more but what about the ladies? Since the pay rate for both IR & black/black scenes pay equally, aren't they leaving money on the table? The same way Ana Foxx does anal and other extras Demi Sutra doesn't, the former would be booked more than the latter.Are they holding out because a white female makes more to work with a black male or is it some form of internalized self hate? This tends to be the more marquee females who would rather shoot a scene with a middle age white male but balk at the prospect of a fellow melanated male. I don't claim to have the answers but I wish someone would offer an educated explanation so that I could make sense of this strange phenomena.

I wish we lived in a just and orderly world but reality is we don't. In my case, majority of my friends who watch adult content are into the millennial generation social media type content and rarely dabble in studio porn. Follow the money and it'll lead you to a middle man in a basement, with multiple memberships to various sites and constant on various adult industry boards akin to this one. Unless they fancy ebony women, they'll keep on watching their bread & butter scenes as they've done for ages.

I want to get off to white people. Sorry. I not racist. I don't not like black people. They are fine, just not like sexually.

I much disappointed when my porn love Jia Lissa did scenes with black man. I could not watch.

My American friend say porn try to hard to make people watch black people. Sorry. I don't like for sex.

Hopefully Jia not do more sex with black man or woman.

To say black people are not sexually attractive on the grounds of race is racist no matter how much you decree to the contrary. The fundamentals of racism are creating a hierarchy of perceived superiority or worthiness based on perceived attributes of certain races.

I think it's quite curious that you occupy so much of your time being so sensitive about the colour of the skin of people Jia has had sex. Why is it so difficult to focus on the scenes where Jia only works with those whose skin colour meets your approval? I don't like everything available to me in porn but I don't give much time or thought to that which I don't like as there is precious little time to focus on it.

Your distaste for black people in porn is patently irrelevant to the discussion here nor does it discredit the author or anyone who gave their accounts of the discrimination they've faced. That you don't want to see black people in porn doesn't mean black people are unworthy of equal pay in the industry. Being averse to black people in porn gives no credence to any argument they shouldn't be on per-scene wage parity with a white performer when all else is equal. If there is porn with someone whose skin colour is too dark on the colour scale for you, you are welcome not to buy it.

I'm genuinely at a loss to try and explain how fatuous your rationale comes across. Your wish not to see a certain demographic doesn't have to curtail the rights or opportunities of that demographic. It's like a staunch Marvel fan goes to ComiCon and expresses disappointment that there are people dressed up as DC characters then hopes that at future ComiCon events, there is nobody else dressed as DC heroes or villains. Unbridled absurdity.

Yet when someone actually did something different, whether it was Andrew Blake, or William H/Mason, Blacked, more naturalistic g/g videos, trans porn, etc. we suddenly saw there was an audience, often a significant audience, for these kinds of porn the industry had insisted either didn't exist or was too niche to be of notice.

Very few companies want to be the ones putting up their money on the idea that "there's a big underserved market for this", so it takes someone wanting to come in and be a disruptor to show that the market exists, and then everyone will follow them into it.

And it's not like this isn't a thing in Hollywood (or, more to the point, entertainment in general), either. Which isn't to say it's not wrong, but that it's not just a porn problem, it's an entertainment industry problem.
