Lots of great pornstars through the years that has really made the industry into what it is now. But what's the no. 1 for you that you think changed porn forever?
For me it's without a doubt Sandra Romain. That girl was a decade before her time, she did daps alll the time back when it was a rarity in porn, I've never seen a girl do gangbangs quite like her, never seen a girl being that good of a dom, and never seen a girl that can take all girl-girl scenes into that level of intensity and hotness, did the craziest anal porn like a walk in the park etc.
Lots of other girls for me that also was groundbreaking; Belladonna, Katja Kassin, Tory Lane etc. but more me Sandra really is it!

Ginger Lynn ushered in a whole new era, not only video, but she was the first woman to really enjoy porn

Great fucking point. I never enjoy porn showing off no fucking joy, so that's a gold standard you sat free there.

And I don't lie much if I put Ginger Lynn up front as my first real source as in adult VHS entertainment segment, because she looked so shiny and happy and overjoyed by just taking cocks missionary for both camera and my early viewing pleasures. God Bless Ginger Lynn, and God Bless America. What an icon, what a rolemodel, leading the train, showing off so much enthusiasm whereas others, just in for a fucking paycheck, early on left the station, never to go no place.

Sandra Romain is the all time greatest performer for me.. but that is just me..everyone has their own. I would have loved to see her in her prime years now, with all the high resolution and quality vs all the VHS and so so DVDS i had of her over the years.
One strangely impressive thing about her, was after more double anals than anyone of her era (her record may never be broken), and hundreds of anal scenes, he asshole is still tight only a small gape and no prolapsing at all.
I am not sure if she changed porn though. She was the top performer of her era, but was diong things that the industry was demanding..... not creating a new direction her self.

She does some occasional work for kink every now and then, I'm a member of LP and I'm kinda pushing and begging for them to shoot her again. She does some escorting now and when I read up on the reviews all say she's is most people's best experience ever. That girl needs to come back to porn! She's the original anal queen and the fucking best female performer =D
I understand that some girls retire from porn because they either want another way of life or has given the adult industry all she can, but not Sandra she's still on top and has all to offer.
I kinda agree about her asshole, it's been to the craziest of things. But to quote her last girl-girl scene from the US with Belladonna "That asshole looks as if it's never been fucked" can only agree with that one, she has the best ass and her butthole was made for anal sex no prolapse, she could gape but her ass just tightened up in an instant ready for the next round of fucking =D
I sound obsessed but I kinda am, imagine her girl-girl scenes kinda give me goose bumps just thinking about it, most are unforgettable. But her work with her then best friend Melissa Lauren and Annette Schwarz those scenes will kinda go down the history books as some of the greatest GG scenes ever. Best fucking intensity, passion, and rawness just irresistible. I like GG porn but those scenes for me are just it! can't be better than those ones.

Sasha Grey and Belladonna made extreme sex and gonzo a must. Jake Steed changed the Interracial Porn Game with his Little White Chicks Series, making what was taboo mainstream.

Heather Hunter gave birth to the ebony female contract star. She was always one of my favorites.
Jenna Jameson - HUGE star. No explanation needed.

She is super important in connection to the video era for sure (and also for mainstream visibility and a certain look), but the first woman to enjoy porn? Hardly.
I think Annie Sprinkle is up there with the pioneers. She not only changed porn through her sex radical approach and her genre-defining (and defying) film DEEP INSIDE ANNIE SPRINKLE, but she also created an entire new movement called Post Porn.

Good to hear, I bet there was others too. But this is freakin' 1981, goddamn rusty tapes, Ginger Lynn doing her entry at 18, 19, looking rather confident. In a scene she came in from sunbathing at some pool. Skinny dude later known as Tom Byron had to punish her sexy brunette mother too. I so love confident relations based on lust, taking cocks for my viwing pleasure from early on, mixing things up a bit. Ginger Lynn to me was the first, I saw it maybe 1,5 decades later. And I was not very spoiled with highly regarded stuff back then. There was these mags to hold on to, but none of them changed nothing. VHS-scene from 1981, to me, that must've been the day one.

Had to open an asian Sina Ginger Candy box just to get another sweet strong fluid kick off from the fact that to me Ginger Lynn did some change.

What do you base the line, "but she was the first woman to really enjoy porn" on?

Jenna Jameson. The biggest porn star ever. Made porn mainstream...almost.

Anyone remember Rachel Ryan/ Penny Morgan from the 80s and early 90s. Girl did anal in virtually every scene at a time most stars did not. She would fit right in to today's porn world. As an aside she once dated Michael Keaton of Beetlejuice movie fame

I don't think any porn star changed the industry. Some made a significant contribution to the bottom line (Ginger Lynn, Janine, Jenna Jameson, Rocco, Sasha Grey, Tori Black,etc.), but really they all just caught the wave at that particular moment.

Now you're taking an objective standpoint, then nothing happens. There's a vast majority out there that doesn't really give a fuck. When they jerk off, they could might as well be turnt on by some scriptions at somewall in some old stonecage, being a student in geology or something. Going all in like Ginger Lynn, showing off joy, not only some open holes in the dark, really shouldn't be underestimated, thinking about the years to follow.

^^ I agree.
VHS and the Internet have been the biggest disrupters of porn over the last 35 years. The one took moving image pornography into our homes, while the other has connected porn fans globally with each other and with the performers. Video technology also gave pornfucking a new context, namely the single take gonzo scenes, which was not possible, or at least unfeasible, with 35 mm film.
As other contributors to this thread have observed, where different pornstars may have appeared to be agents of pornchange at various times over the last couple or three decades, it has been more a case of the performers embracing the particular moment.
At a certain level pornstars are fungible.

Yeah, fungible. But both the energy they serve and the looks stays.

My faves include Christy Canyon, Vanessa Del Rio, Nikki Charm, Rhonda Jo Petty. Grew up in VHS era and the male stars were Jamie Gillis, Herschel Savage, Randy White, John Leslie.
I am having to learn the newer talent, but sadly many of the old ones are no longer alive.

Ginger Lynn was the first breakout star of the Eighties VHS era. Porn went from something you had to go to the movie theater to see to renting a video from the back room of neighborhood video store (remember those?). She also made "Lynn" the go to female porn moniker.
Jenna Jameson was the breakout star of the next generation of pornstars. She was part of the new generation of performers who grew up watching porn on video. Jenna took it to the next level from Ginger Lynn in the business sense by marketing herself and getting mainstream buzz. Jenna wrote a bestselling book. She quit the game while she was still on top. Every woman coming in the business after her wanted to be the next Jenna. I think that's what started the sexual arms race we have now. Female stars one upping each other (anal, DP, interracial, gangbang) to be the next queen. Jenna's greatest gift in my opinion was her timing. She came out when Pamela Anderson made "porno chic" fashionable for mainstream. How many mainstream beauties do you see now the the cookie cutter look of blonde hair extensions, fake boobs, pouty lips and a tan?
I think Lisa Ann is now the latest trendsetter. Lisa Ann showed you could do interracial and remain an A list performer. She was doing big tit, big ass, interracial and MILF genres at the same time. Lisa Ann also wrote a book and quit the business at the top of her game.
