| You Wish Member Last person please turn off the lights 85 Posts 7/07 | Posted - May 19 2010 : 2:44PM there are different levels or venues of porn. Me personally I never could understand how folks could subject themselves to strangers sexually in this day of contracting HIV-cum-AIDS, the Lara Roxx story is still sad when you understand that she had just entered the biz and kinda didn't intend to stay. But yes there are levels of the biz where it would logically be more safe. A husband and wife doing only themselves in sex scenes for dvd release or for internet like ie Vicky Vette. I can this being more prevalent if more HIV cases show up. [/quote] Do you for one second think that the porn directors and companies give a rats ass about Lara Roxx or any other young girls welfare? If you do you are either in denial or woefully uninformed... Did the guys driving the Bentley's and living in the mansions (according to AVN) help this girl out? Or would they help out any other that would get in this situation? Porn people have absolutely no morals or integrity... what would you expect from them? Use and abuse, just make my Bentley and house payments for me. That's the story of these guys... [Link] |
| raybbaby Member Sarah knows why Barack won! 482 Posts 12/09 | Posted - May 19 2010 : 3:41PM There's a link to her filmography. It looks on paper like she worked for two years, but with only a dozen titles to her name, she probably worked for six months. Videos can be shot and then take quite a while between shooting, editing, and release. She may have shot 12 scenes in one month for all we know. And I agree on it being a mistake to refer to her as a "pornstar". Most people only ever heard of her through her anti-porn crusade. She is really just an attention whore and a pain in the ass.

| You Wish Member Last person please turn off the lights 85 Posts 7/07 | Posted - May 19 2010 : 4:31PM Is it ok if I fuck and abuse your mother, sister or hell.. even your grandmother for that matter? Women are being abused for the sole intention of catering to your sex addiction... That is what she is fighting against... As a women myself who manages an adult boutique.. I have no problem with her... Unfortunately there is no upside to the porn industry in its present scumbag form. It is run by overgrown juvenile delinquents, thugs, predators and every category of low life in our society you can think of. That is just the sad facts that a lot of "porn fans" don't know or care to understand. There are way to many casualties and victims of predator porn companies... [Link] |

You're just another ignorant shit talker. End of story. [/quote] Honey... I know this because I have been working in the adult Industry for almost 20 years now. I attend all the conventions for my job, I have been on porn shoots, I talk to porn people on a daily basis. I have booked and featured countless porn girls in my stores... I have had in depth and soul searching conversations with many of these girls. I have traveled for years in porn circles and have met these people first hand... Yep I have met some good people who have integrity in the porn business.. but they are few and far between. Ya want a couple of examples? I sat in the office of one well know scumbag studio owner while he was screaming at a girl on the phone, he was telling her that "they would find her bones in the desert" if she didn't pay him back the $700 he fronted her for a shoot that she canceled on. Hangs up... and looks at me and says.. "Porn whores their all the same, I mean it.. I'll fucking take her out in the desert myself if I don't get my money back... Ok sorry what were we talking about now". Was I supposed to be impressed? Over heard another studio owner talking to one of his in house directors... He's screaming at him... "Tear those whores up, we don't want any soft shit... It don't sell.. if their assholes ain't bleeding you ain't doing it right. I'm telling you man better tear those whores up... You're no fucking choirboy. Bring good shit back" Yep another class act. Than there are the personal stories from the girls themselves... I could spend all night telling what I've learned over the years.. if you think it's all cupcakes and roses... ya better think again honey. The industry doesn't want the fans to know what really goes on... Shelley Lubben does... I may not agree with the religious overtones of her whole gig... but she is doing what she believes is right.. It doesn't take long working in this business to see the seedy dark side... So Raybaby.. learn the facts before you talk shit about someone or things you yourself know nothing about... [Link] |

Click to expand At this point you're just blowing smoke. If these so called stories actually happened why don't you name names. I also find it amusing that you have such distain for everyone making a living off of producing porn, but you have no problem making a living off of selling the finished product. Why is that?[Link] |
| fu_q All-Star Member Marv Montag (@PornOfYore) 2506 Posts 2/09 | Posted - May 20 2010 : 2:20AM Correct me if I am mistaken, then, but is it not Lubben's contention that the consumers are complicit in hurting the actresses by buying the product -- albeit generally unwittingly? If one buys into this argument, then this is where "we" (most of us on this board) would come in--the ones to whom you are currently preaching. Now...following that line of reasoning...you are much further up the chain than "we" are. You, as part of your business(es), are actually either selling porn or directly promoting it for sales purposes. As such, you are knowingly (not unwittingly) and intentionally a much larger part of the problem (as Lubben would see it). If one buys into Lubben's arguments, you would be knowingly profiting off of these actresses being hurt -- either directly or indirectly. Is this incorrect? So, please enlighten us as to how it is that you can support Lubben's ideology and can have had such an epiphany and yet still go to work every day. I am very curious as to how this moral compartmentalization occurs. PS -- I don't buy into Lubben's ideas. Clearly, life isn't always roses...but the pictures that are being painted by her appear quite over the top and exaggerated.

| You Wish Member Last person please turn off the lights 85 Posts 7/07 | Posted - May 20 2010 : 9:31AM There are companies that we don't carry or stopped carrying in my store. Nothing hypocritical going on here... My store has gradually evolved into catering to women and couples mostly... Racka and racks of lingerie and sexy items. That is why I called it a boutique. It is. It's not a jerk off pit stop... Just because young girls allow this to happen to themselves or get paid to get abused doesn't make it right... Unfortunately most 18-20 year old girls are still kids and think porn is glamorous. Some of it is... most is not. The girls tell me this themselves... and very famous ones. There are absolutely no uniform health guidelines in place for these women. The majority of porn directors and companies are not professional filmmakers or even qualified businessmen for that matter... Just a collective bunch of society's misfits and renegades. STD's are rampant. That is a fact... That must change. For years now gonzo companies have been very rough and extreme in their treatment of the girls... that's a fact. Drug use and abuse is rampant amongst porn girls... That's a fact... The porn business has been on thin ice for many many years and can't be responsible enough to clean up its own act. So now the government is about to step in and do it for them. [Link] |
| fu_q All-Star Member Marv Montag (@PornOfYore) 2506 Posts 2/09 | Posted - May 20 2010 : 11:19AM I doubt that she would find the middle-ground that you are taking a reasonable position. For instance, there was a video circulating not too long ago where she was chasing Steve Hirsch (of Vivid) around a convention as a part of her crusade. In all honesty, the video looked ridiculous and actually took on a pro-wrestling, back-stage kind of feel...and only made Lubben look foolish instead of intelligent. It weakened her credibility, in my opinion. Regardless, since you have said that you like Vivid (so do I -- very much), you would be in direct opposition to Lubben on this item...and she would likely consider you to be a big part of the problem. This is much like she considers "us" (fans) to be a part of the problem. I would recommend that if you are going to align yourself publicly with people with extreme positions (such as Lubben) that you make sure that you agree with them on the key issues first. Their views are "extreme" for a reason, after all. Also from your post, I will take it that you sell absolutely no DVD's in your stores that have even a hint of an actress potentially being mistreated in them. Is this correct? Also note that even if you sell only the high-end, non-gonzo companies' material, you still fall into being at least as big a part of the "problem" in Lubben's ideology as do the fans.

[/quote] Honey... If you don't know the difference between eroticism and degrading porn, than I am wasting my valuable time even giving you an answer... Last time I heard, couples porn (to use your words...) or eroticism as I call it... doesn't involve violence, degradation or humiliation against women. Eroticism celebrates and enhances ones sexuality and is an "equals" shared event between people who love or at least care for each other on some level... Gonzo porn generally shows total disdain for young women... The girls that I've had extensive conversations with know that they are being used and thrown away like yesterdays trash by the porn business... Behind the fake porn star smiles you see lighting up adult conventions is usually a hurting little girl. Sadly the lore of money and fame almost never happens to these girls... Which I'll say it again, porn is primarily a group overgrown juvenile delinquents preying on young, naive girls lacking any life experience. Most porn girls have a troubled past and have abuse in their backgrounds. Most have drug usage problems. I learned this first hand... Ripe for the picking wouldn't you say? So honey, it is what is is... The gonzo porn companies blow sunshine and smoke up your asses so your money keeps on making their payments on their "Bentley's" and the "mansions"... Don't for one second believe all the propaganda and glamorous bullshit that surrounds the adult industry. Most of the people involved are broken toys... [Link] |

Just because you deal in non gonzo porn and operate a story that isn't a "jerk off pit" doesn't change the fact that you are selling porn. When you say "The gonzo porn companies blow sunshine and smoke up your asses so your money keeps on making their payments" you could easily subsitute "The gonzo porn companies" and "making their payments" with "I'm trying to" and "making my payments." As far as these girls being "broken toys" and "ripe for the picking" maybe in a few cases, but bottom line these girls enter into porn willingly and if they feel exploited or mistreated in a scene they have a choice of not signing the release. Pure and simple, you either sign the release or you don't. But for you to try and pass yourself off as anything more than a porn merchant no matter who's product you distribute is laughable.[Link] |

You and other porn guys on here seem so angry.. would you care to explain that? Does it make you angry, or do you feel threatened that maybe abusing and mistreating young girls for your misogynistic pleasure would be outlawed? Or that the government will step in and clean up the industry? Please enlighten us. Why do you so aggressively defend the adult business and some of its practices.. when you really don't know anything other than what you read on this sanitized forum board? What is your source of inside information? I'm really curious now... [Link] |

PS--for what it's worth, I was very close friends (as in, I went to her wedding, did occasional roadie work for her, etc.) with someone who quit the biz only a few years back. She did a lot of the gonzo-esque and anal films (over 200). While she bitched about a couple of things that had happened, she didn't paint a picture anywhere near what you're talking about...even after getting all religious-like.
