Girls get into Stripping for the money. They get into Porn for the Fun(Sex), The Fame, &/or Boyfriend/Husband's.

I think Zoid was just trying to be funny, but forgot the ().

I've heard too many girls say they got into STRIPPING for the money to even consider most do it because they like to dance. In fact I've heard a whole bunch say they weren't nervous to take their clothes off, but they were nervous to dance in front of people.

I personally don't like the extreme hardcore stuff, but a lot of the PornChicks dig that stuff. Not only on film, but in their personal lives as well.

Also, I think Jewel's & Kami's comments are gonna be the norm. Money is rarely the reason for getting into Porn.

Stripping I did do for money, it was the only job I could think of that I could do for a few hours a night (it had to be a night job) that would earn enough to support me while I was a full time student. I never liked dancing in clubs, although I did enjoy dancing and I did enjoy the attention. I just hate smokey, boozy, nasty dark bars full of guys who want you to let them do anything and everything to you for a buck. I don't like hustling drinks, either or any of the other baloney a house dancer has to put up with.

Escorting I like. Somewhere in between stripping and porn. I wouldn't do it without being paid (that would just be, like, dating - UGH!), but I can't think of anything else I'd rather be doing for money.

But, honestly, I very glad if they indeed like it.

Kami? Jewel?

But here she reveals the truth:

I never liked dancing in clubs, although I did enjoy dancing and I did enjoy the attention. I just hate smokey, boozy, nasty dark bars full of guys who want you to let them do anything and everything to you for a buck.

So,my dear girl,you claim you enjoy doing it for free,for
the "attention" and the "affirmation";but when men offer to
supply those things to you for only a "buck" you seem
reluctant to accept them.I gather quite A LOT more bucks
would be in order for you to get a real good feeling of
that "affirmation."

Women are involved with porn for one reason only:MONEY

Jewel,

Those were some lucky people who received those free extras. They must have done a lot of good things in past lives to be so fortunate.

Also Jewel, Are you going to be at ECVS in Sept.?

Apparently you don't understand the difference between affirmation and attention and the degrading statement, "You're only worth a buck - and I don't even want to give that to you, but you should let me do anything I want to you.".[end of quote]

It's time to stop this kind of childish,roundabout manner
of speaking.You're a very beautiful woman and you have every
right to seek the maximum profit possible for the use of
your person in any manner that you desire without feeling
a need to put a politically correct gloss on your motives
to placate other people.

I've written a few articles for local rags and received payment for them . But the main joy came from writing something that was considered worthy enough to be printed and posted through people's letterboxes . Why then should I have felt less happy when a larger paper paid me peanuts for a piece ? Could it have anything to do with what I imagined they thought of my work ? No . It's obviously because I'm a money grabbing hack .

Please learn to broaden your horizons . There's often more than one reason behind any decision . And just sometimes not even one . Your simplicity is bordering on being deliberate .

I was VERY honest in my statement regarding why I perform as a stripper, escort and in porn. Money tends to offset the things you dislike about a job, you can't pay me enough to go back to dancing in a bar - I dislike it that much. The ONLY reason I chose it was for the money. I didn't even know I'd like the attention when I decided to do it. I learned that, and I learned to find the attention elsewhere.
Likewise, I never planned to go into porn. Not for money, not for attention, not for any reason. I got into the industry completely by accident, and was more than happy to be welcomed in. The attention and affirmation kept me coming back. Even though the pay was not amazing.
I make quite a bit more now than I made doing porn. It was never about the money. I don't need to be PC, I am probably retired. I can offend anyone I want to, fans, prospective employers, other performers. I'm free - no pressure.

Don,
That you obviously believe the only reason any woman would want to be in contact with a penis is for money says a great deal about what you think a penis is worth. I feel so bad for you.

Kimi,

while it may appear that Don an I share the same views, I have no doubt you're being honest (as well as the others here). But I am thinking about the bigger picture here. Thinking outside your own experience, do you think that the same motivation applies to the majority of porn starlets, keeping in mind that PORN isn't limited to the United States alone?

Hell, I don't know. I just find it extremely hard to believe that majority of girls wind up in porn seeking glory and fame. Maybe I do indeed see things in black in white.

I'm sure many women working in places like MCDonald's or
Burger King would be rather suprised to learn that earning
some 300 dollars for twenty minutes of work is considered
working for peanuts.

Nonetheless,I'm willing to grant that what you're saying
is genuine and you really do enjoy the work for the attention and affirmation you derive from performing.
But these intangibles are often easily converted into real
lasting benefits such as access to more lucrative offers
of work,gaining the "attention" of important and influential
men as mates or business partners,ect.

Women may not be consciously aware of the many ways in which
they can benefit materially from pursuing what they believe
are purely nonmaterial ends.I'm not saying this is true in
your case but I do think it applies to the adult industry
in general.

Trust me,you wouldn't have the least difficulty finding a
partner anywhere you so desire.Best wishes.

The portion of your statement (and the highlight that I added) are your opinion, and that is fine. The problem that many of us are having is that so many of your posts don't come across as your opinion, but as irrefutable fact and the way things are, and that you are trying to educate the rest of us as to the way the world really turns.

Go ahead and state your opinions, but please don't state is as the facts.

I'm joking but I bet some clown thinks it. Honestly, you are a proud freak/slut/whore and we love you for it.
