I've always wanted to know whether the practice of Interracial avoidance is common in other porn markets worldwide, or just native to the U.S. porn market. I'm from the U.K. and I've noticed that very few International(non-U.S.) pornstars refuse to do Interracial scene. However I have come to notice that several U.S.-based European pornstars who haven't to my knowledge performed in a single interracial scene thus far,(Bobbi Eden, Tayne Tate, Puma Swede Vicky Vette and Briana Banks). Note:This is not an attempt to insight a riot of on this forum, so please keep the comments to the point. I simply want to know if interracial is an issue in any other porn market or just uniquely American.
^ That in Europe nobody takes any count whether a stars does or doesn't do IR , nobody gives a fuck , it maybe be possible some don't do IR , but for example if you look at Rocco Fucktory XXX the Auditions you will find Valentina Nappi's very first shoot , it was IR (and anal) she even didn't know this and she didn't blink an eye it made no difference for her. And this is true for the most part of them , though some stars coming back from the States may suggest to avoid being suggested herself , last year apparently there have been some refusal whereas was never a problem before. So yes the key word is USA Edited by - LCF on 5/23/2014 3:29:02 PM
I think it's hard to know if a porn star is deliberately avoiding interracial scenes, or she hasn't been asked to perform in such a scene. There is a lot of racial segregation in US-made porn movies, which is decided by porn producers and not by porn stars. And porn producers might not be entirely to blame either. Because they need to produce films that their customers will buy. And if many of their customers are racist, then they need to produce racially segregated movies.
I don't know but here some said that , nothing too wide though, but it would seem that some starlets are beginning to dodge to avoid any possible problem IF and when they will come to the States for work, very likely the newest , we all know that Abby won't do , but it's not a racial issue she won't shoot with anybody except for ONE guy ,always the same one.Nobody else period. This is a learned behaviour , there were even porn stars self declared nazi who hadn't any problem to shoot IR scenes while active Edited by - LCF on 5/24/2014 7:22:50 AM
I always though that american IR(Black Male/White Female)was only a thing here in the states because ever international performer that i have seen gain a large following here all did IR from the jump. Katja Kassin, Sandra Romain(her sister too) and Alyssa all perform IR.

Yes, It's seems to be the cast for the overwhelming majority, particularly, Europeans, and Japanese based in the U.S. However, when it comes to South Americans, Australians based in the U.S. it doesn't seem cleat to me.
I don't think thats entirely accurate. I would have thought that the US is still the biggest market in the world that produces IR porn. If you looking for IR porn in this country I don't think that you will have much trouble finding entire lines/series/websites and companies totally dedicated to the IR genre. Just because there are still some girls that don't want to do IR doesn't quite mean IR here is considered a big taboo. The IR that can be seen and produced here is very much appreciated by fans and isn't treated as being taboo. In fact I would say that if you want see see and buy IR porn here in the US, then this is as good as time as ever. Europe, I think is different in that basically they don't give a fuck if you do IR or not. You either want to do it or you don't. They don't really treat you differently either way. For example here in the US,whenever a new girl begins to get noticed or begins to make a name for themselves, one of the first things that they always get asked, whether it be in person, on twitter and other social media, is 'are you going to do IR?, when are you going to start to do IR? Why don't you do IR? are you racist? etc. Somehow I don't think that girls working in the European, Australian, Far East porn industries would be subjected to the same amount of questioning and pressure to do IR as their American counterparts over here.
I'll say this again, Billy Watson went to Europe to shoot interracial scenes for blacks on blondes. He said it was no different from U.S.A He had trouble booking girls because many would not do interracial. All I will say is you better never assume. Like going over there and booking girls without telling them the talent will be black. They will walk right off that set.
^ And I say I'd need names , because the VAST MAJORITY of the big stars in Europe do IR regularly , Rocco books girls without saying whether the girl will fuck him , Omar Galanti, Kid Jamaica or Mike Chapman and apparently never had a problem to find girls , three years ago Jon Jon went in Europe to shoot and he said the girls were jumping on him , same for Charlie Macc who went in there a year after (for Dogfart) , it's the same thing Mike Chapman keeps saying in his BTS interviews (especially for Russian girls). So if there's a change of heart I wonder what originated this , perhaps the syphilis of July/August 2012 outbreak has a part in it. Or maybe the girls were total newbies in their first scenes , it happens often that a wannabe flees from set when she has to actually do a real shoot or the man either white or black is seen and she doesn't like him , he just maybe too old , or too intimidating That's why names are needed
Europe is a big place, with many different countries, ethnic groups, and cultures. Which means that they have a great variety of attitudes, including attitudes towards people of other races. Some European countries are more racially tolerant than others, but you can probably find some racism in every country there, including in countries where people of other races aren't commonly found. A few years ago, I've seen a warning from the US State Department about possible threats to safety of non-white Americans in Ukraine due to racism there. And this is one country that has very few people of other races.
^ Yes there are racists in Europe , a lot actually but it isn't cultural we don't have countries or areas who are culturally racists or have been in the past (I mean culturally segregationists, Nazism was a short lived period of time here and we still hate it in ways you can't understand) , there's nothing even similar to the Southern States in the USA, there's nothing like the KKK , there are areas who have more racists than others for political reason but in the same areas are some of the most loud anti-racist groups. The only Country recognized as racist is Lithuania , it is in Europe but not part of the EU it's racism will prevent such Country from being accepted , it's just incompatible with our basic rights Edited by - LCF on 5/25/2014 10:01:59 AM

^^^Dan, I think that you're assuming that private feelings of racism would prevent European performers from doing IR, which is not necessarily the case. My impression of many European performers, particularly those from the former Soviet Union, is that they view porn first and foremost as a job. Thus, if they have a scene with a black guy, they shoot the scene and get paid, end of story. If I recall correctly, LCF mentioned in a previous thread that even a number of European pornstars who are linked to white supremacist groups have done IR. I myself read of one such case sometime ago, in which the pornstar in question was kicked out of the neo-Nazi group to which she belonged when other members were made aware of her having filmed IR. As for the Ukraine, the economic crisis has accelerated the growth of fascism in the Western region of that country - as it has in Greece and several other countries - to the point that fascist militias are now able to openly conduct terroristic violence without fear of legal repercussion and fascist Right Sector and Svoboda party members occupy important seats of power in the Ukrainian government. Even Kiev’s National Guard is populated heavily by neo-Nazis. The State Department warning anticipated these disastrous events. Edited by - misspornUSA on 5/25/2014 1:53:39 PM
^ Each Nazi party in Europe has a different reason to exist , in Ukraina rather than racism is their anti-Russia sentiment the trigger to become Nazi, the event of late had greatly increased their numbers In Greece they had back in the 70 a military government , those who were there never paid for that and of course still have leverage for power and are exploiting the situation to get back

Racism in Europe is akin to tribalism, it's racism in the raw and unrefined form. I've been in several European countries at felt little hostility from the local people, Germany being one of them.
^ True it is defence of the territory rather than true racism , you may see something like that among soccer supporters they hate those who support their rival teams much more than they hate a foreigner

Yeah, but what of the soccer supporters that throw Bananas at Black soccer players and the monkey chants?
^ That's because he is one of "them" , the very same soccer player would be admired if he changes team going to that of those who despised him previously, but then his former team supporters will begun instead

i don't think it's a big issue there's always going to be new white women doing ir with black male but i would like to know if there would be a issue with say a indian male doing ir with white women or other non black male doing ir with white women hopefully in the near future ir with other ethnic male + white women emerge to the same level as black male on white female :)
It is true in any kind of nationalist Xenophobia , I can't believe how everybody forgot what happened in Ruanda and Burundi , no whites involved , Hutu and Tutsi the two major black races in Africa killed each other in the million out of pure racial hatred. Each country had a minority of the other race who was discriminated by the majority and the exploited rebelled. No whites involved. And even though there were accusations of illegal weapons dealing , the killing was made mostly with machetes , none of them needed any help they had plenty of knives already Edited by - LCF on 5/26/2014 2:02:01 AM

Another performer who comes to mind is Justin Slayer. Back when he was producing his own movies for Evil Angel, he would frequently go to Europe to shoot. In fact, I think the majority of his movies might have been shot there. He also commented that he enjoyed shooting in Europe because it was a lot easier for him to book female talent there. In the U.S., a lot of girls wouldn't shoot for him because they didn't do IR. But in Europe, he said that he could get any of the girls he wanted, and none of them ever had any problems shooting for him. Basically, he liked shooting in Europe because he didn't have to put up with all the IR bullshit that he had to deal with here in the U.S. Also, it is indeed very rare to find a European porn girl who hasn't done IR. Mostly all of them do it. Not only that, but there is nowhere near as much racial segregation in European porn as there is in American porn. For example, guys like Kid Jamaica and Franco Roccaforte can regularly appear on sites like 21Sextury, LegalPorno, DDF, and others, even though none of them are IR sites. In contrast, black male performers in the U.S. are usually only booked for sites and movies that are specifically IR. Thus, whereas black male performers in Europe can do scenes for major sites there without having to be restricted to only the IR category, black male performers here in the U.S. cannot. Case in point, how often do we see black men being booked for scenes on Brazzers, Mofos, NaughtyAmerica, DigitalPlayground, etc.? In the U.S., if it doesn't say Interracial is big, bold flashing letters, then black men will most likely not be considered for those scenes. This does not appear to be the case in Europe, where they appear to choose male performers based on talent, not on race. So Yes, this IR nonsense only appears to be an issue in American porn.
To quote an English friend of mine when somebody said to him that he was making interracial porn: "I am British, she is British, I make Britporn". Jacco
This is a very informing thread. Thanks to the OP for starting it.
The biggest fears expressed by white American women is usually "I'm from the South" and "my father would freak out" so it seems to me, that that is one of the big differences between the US and Europe.
There wouldn't be an issue...there is Keni Styles (oriental performer) who I have never heard about being rejected or being on any "won't" lists. (someone may feel free to correct me if they know otherwise). But it wouldn't be an "issue" I've talked about this before: The United States' rather unique history is what makes Black-Caucasian relations such a hot-button issue in general and in the adult world in specific. The US Census bureau defines "interracial" purely as any and all ethnicities and the largest incident of IR marriage in that case is White Men with Oriental Women. That is something that rarely raises an eyebrow in the US. White and Black romantic relationships are widely acceptable but there's still a sizable segment of the populace that does not and will never endorse them. And that's what drives the IR controversies in porn.
If an oriental or indian guy with a Lex-sized dick comes on the scene, he'll get work. But to be clear, again, its the "taboo" aspect of Black men with White girls in this country, that is what many porn IR fans are into.
Is that ""taboo" aspect" of black men and white women the reason that the then almost ultimate taboo of white women rimming black men is so rare in porn?
^I wasn't aware that it was an "ultimate taboo". I'm not really into rimming, and in fact, FFW over scenes that I do see it in, so I don't know how much of that goes on WM/WF porn or BM/WF porn or what the ratio is. But as far as I know, there's not too many actresses that do IR, but will not do XYZ Sex Act with a BM, but would do that same sex act with a WM. Usually whatever acts a girl is willing to do, she'll do with any dude she's willing to work with. (Exceptions might include some girlfriend-boyfriend acting couples) I could be wrong. Someone else might have to answer this. Edited by - Smiler Grogan on 5/26/2014 1:14:26 PM
What I meant was that if some "interracial" relations are taboo and rimming (at least F>M) seem to be a taboo due to its relative rarity, taboo + taboo should be a very strong taboo. Maybe not ultimate, but still. Well, that was only my thought.
Also Harmony company very often put an IR scene in its movies and so do some Italian companies (Pink'o or ATV), there were many scenes with Jasmine Webb and Danny D or Omar Williams and many stars , none of their movies is labelled IR , they are just vignettes It is important to notice that nobody stressed the fact that Danny D is very big and Jasmine Webb is black so almost reversing one of the most common IR cliche in the USA. Also there are Russian sites who often put Edic/Eric a black Russian talent in there without stressing this , abusive sex is not deemed to be particularly related to blacks like in the USA , it is mostly passion or lust

you are very right about slayer. his boy hj used to come on this board and said the girls were very hot and natural and they showed up and work. they actually try to enjoy the sex. he said sometimes Justin would say fuck it and creampie a girl and the girl wouldn't even ask for extra money. he said a lot of times the girls would hang around and they would fuck them off camera sometimes gangbang them. There was a few. I think natali dangelo was one. Angel dark I believe they fucked off camera. He said one girl in I think pipe layers 4 had a long term bf who didn't know she was shooting, she was doin it because she though it would only be seen in us. he said they during the scene Justin decided to creampie her. he said in us all the behind scenes stuff is set up and cost money. in Europe it was legit.

I can be wrong but it is a belief that Spanish and Italians are more racist. hj said slayer and them always wanted to do those two countries but were told they couldn't get girls.
