Pure Ho: Much as Kurt describes his "Ho." AKA, "The Natural." I think Isabel Ice, Jayna Oso, or Annette Schwarz would be the ideals of this.
The Pro Ho: Girls who may only be in it for the money, but do appear to enjoy sex and give hot performances, yet probably do cry themselves to sleep at night. Or, if not, have a more calculated approach to their dealings in porn. I think this counts for a high percentage of better-known performers. Most contract girls are this type.
What Lockwood calls a Pro.
The Tourist: Here today, gone tomorrow. May have some hot scenes but you never get a fix on them.
The Grifter: Probably close to what Kurt calls a "Throw." May work their way through the foodchain until no one wants to hire her again. LIkely to wind up on the Midnight Prowl.
I would think any list if you're starting one for a pure ho would have to include Ariana Jollee who was in the last five years one of the best to be in the moment as they say from start to finish.
Good points here. I would say that 99.9% of the IR Dodgers out there are in his "pro" category. Wannabe Jenna types who are only running their careers into the ground by following the Vivid formula.
The "throw" category is the most interesting. Porn attracts alot of self hating people. And that part truly is sad...

The sad truth is that I am forced to agree with Lockwood. Oh the horror!
He talks a lot of sense. I still dunno what to think about Kurt. On the one hand he comes across as a nice guy and someone who really believes in the industry, but then you hear all the crazy shit about him, so i dunno... But yea, theres definatly a few more levels. Midnight Prowlers maybe even have they're own level somewhere.
I don't know if 3 categories is enough.To take somebody that did retire somtimes ago to me,Asia Carrera,doesn't fit in any of those categories. P.S.What I found funny in that Kurt's blog page is the comment left from Sophia Rossi.I wonder in which category she think she is :-)
Maybe Crucifixio remembers ... or Van Styles ... drunk one night at the Circle Bar, when everybody was dishing on everybody, I think we concocted a total food chain of porn performance ... The main thing being, for me, that you had the top 5-10% of girls who are the naturally unabashed devourers of men, followed closely by another 10% who may approach it more as "performance" -- less "honest," perhaps, but totally "down" -- yet always have a great attitude. And after that, the downward spiral ...
please, please, please, please, PLEASE post here more often. you've got a ton of fans here, myself included, that would love to talk with you. your presence is much appreciated.
Oh yeah she Ariana Jollee is definately in that category, Venus too. I think here's a lot
I like how he breaks it down as the pure "hos", like to kiss on camera. I love watching girls kiss on camera it just makes the scene way more hotter to me.
Using Skronker's terminology, isn't it be possible for a girl to be a Pure Ho in scenes where she is actually attracted to her co-stars and is actually into all of the acts performed, and be a Pro Ho in scenes where her co-stars aren't her type or the scene is devoted to fetishes she does not actually have in her personal life?
I just found this thread...and yes, I DO remember! All I can say is, not only was I suprised at how frank everybody was but I was definitely shocked at a few of the answers we got as far as who was "real" and who the "actresses" in the biz are. DISH, indeed.
