There seems to be 5 types or categories of female porn performers based on their attitude, performance and willingness to do tricks*
Going by that here are the 5 Main Types of Female Porn Performers:
TYPE 1 : TOO PRETTY FOR PORN
This type of chick really shouldn't be doing porn at all. Not because shes too good for it but because shes not good at it. She's doing it but she doesn't dig it...not really. This type of girl is usually supermodel pretty and should be on a runway but for some reason chose to do porn and is in it purely for the money and that's it. Maybe she lacks any professional marketable skill, or shes looking to make quick money or she doesn't think its all that bad and gets over because shes so fine looking. But at the end of the day she's just taking dick.
How you can tell is.. she'll do the kama sutra positions but her performance is mostly noise and fuck faces. She doesn't like facials (altho she MAY do it) she doesn't do anal or spitting or any of the other tricks most porn stars do. In her personal life she may not even LIKE sex that much. Just get her naked..fuck her..give her her money so she can get the hell out there. This type of chick is usually an addict of some sort. Mostly because she needs to numb out in order to deal with her choice of career.
Average time in porn: 3-6 months..sometimes a year or two..but this chick usually burns out fast.
TYPE 2: THE FREAK ON AUTOMATIC
This chick WILL do the tricks and stuff..she will do the spitting and choking and facials. But its more a matter of par for the course for her.
This type of chick may or may not be an addict but she may have abuse in her background or some psychological issue that makes her believe she should do whatever whenever with whomever and she's in porn because at least she can get paid for doing this shit. But if you watch her eyes when she's performing there's really nothing there..much like a stripper who zones out while shaking her ass on stage
On the whole she generally gives MUCH better performances than the TYPE 1 chick. And if matched up with a person and the chemistry is right she'll give a GREAT performance. But she's just taking dick too..she's just willing to do the tricks as well.
Average time in porn: 3-5 years..until she has a religious conversion or gets married or has children..she usually comes back to the industry for a few more years when things don't work out though. She usually works escort as well.

TYPE 3: THE TRUE FREAK
This chick LOVES to fuck and get fucked. Her lifestyle is about having sex and porn is just a natural avenue for her. She may be a swinger so she's fucking like a beast in private as well as in front of the camera. She knows how she likes it and isn't shy about telling her partner how to do it or doing it herself.
For this type of chick its about the GET OFF. She wants to cum as much as the dude and she's not shy about showing it. She RARELY has an off performance and brings it to every video. In fact she might get visibly frustrated if the guy can't keep up with her. She usually isn't on drugs or an alcoholic because sex is her drug of choice. She too may do escorting but she's much better at that as well.
Average time in porn: long term...10+ years..she'll be performing well into advanced age.
TYPE 4: THE MERCENARY
This chick is all about her business. She sees the sex industry the way Trump sees real estate or Bill Gates sees technology. Something that they are naturally good at so they corner the market and try to conquer the industry. She is NOT an addict but she is a freak...just in front of the camera. She's not into women personally but she will do gay for pay. If she does do the more extreme tricks best believe someone is paying her out the wazoo for it.
While she'll put in consistently good to great performances like the type 3 chick...unlike the type 3 chick she almost NEVER cums on camera. That she saves for personal activity if she does have an orgasm on camera she's as surprised as everyone else. While the type 1 chick doesn't have orgasms because shes too drunk or high and the type 2 chick doesn't because she's psychologically fucked and no one ever cared enough to help her have one. The type 4 chick CAN get off but chooses to save that for her personal relations. This is also the kind of woman who moves BEHIND the camera and produces or directs her own shit.
Average time in porn: in front of the camera..5-10 years depending on how well her fan base supports her. behind the camera..decades. She's the one who retires and stays retired from performing or escorting.
TYPE 5: THE WELL ADJUSTED FREAK
This is the kind of woman who is an amalgam of all the good aspects of types 3 and 4 only with none of the icky psycho shit or addictions going on or the overly aggressive sexuality. She was raised in a decent family and may have their blessing or at least backing on her career choice. Since she is in her right mind she may have only a few tricks listed on her resume but not all. She may dabble on the dark side (bondage, fetish play) as well but its mostly out of curiousity and personal interest more than money. She's a big time exhibitionist (of course) and LOVES being the center of attention. The chances of her being a pornSTAR as opposed to just porn PERFORMER is great.
The type 1 chick becomes a pornstar simply because shes that beautiful...lotta style but no substance.
The type 2 chick usually lucks up on pornstardom she's mostly the utility performer and likes that position. Every once in a while you'll see a type 2 pornstar but she doesn't wear it comfortably.

If the type 3 chick becomes a pornstar its by sheer force of personality and performance.
The type 4 chick lobbies her way to pornstardom. But thats just a path to create her own brand and production company and stable of performers herself.
The type 5 chick is the stuff porn stars should be made of. A good performer, freaky enough to love the attention and clear headed enough to do the business.
Average time in porn: around 10+ years. She's good natured enough to not get bitter about the industry and usually has socked enough money away not to have to go back to the business when she's finally done.
which porn performers fit into those types?
*(anything outside of normal sex is a trick, as in a circus act, to me..e.g inserting a bat into the anus, double and triple penetration are tricks, not sex)
