I take 2Bigs suggestion from my porn language tread
seriously and open a new tread as he suggested. I just do wonder wheter I have to do that in the
-part of the forum or the <Nonsense>-part of the forum?
Well, as the most common form 19 y.o. Ukrainian girls are presented to most porn consumers is on dvd, I leave it here. And stand corrected, if I am wrong.

2 Big wrote:
<However, I tend to be a bit more concerned when I read on websites that "girls are for sale," "will do everything," "will do 5 scenes a day," "is only $150 for one scene," "loves 10 guys a day up her butt."

I wonder whether that is really what 19 year old girls from the Ukraine are all about. But that is a topic for a different thread.
2Big>

IMHO:
a) A 19 y.o. Ukrainian girl in a porn film first is a porn stalet as every other girl as well.

b) it is a girl (a teenage girl actually) enacting a phantasy with her own body. For this she gets payed. And if she got booked via an agent, he or she gets payed a commission.

c) Now what is crucial IMO: This is NOT what an average Ukrainian 19 y.o. girl is really about! A 19 y.o. Ukrainian girl is a teenager like any other girl, too. Maybe difficult material situation has made her grow up faster, but basically she - like most girls - dreams of a cosy home, good exam, nice cloths, nice boyfriend, good friends, funding her own family later etc...

d) ...BUT her material/psychological/whatever situation put her in a situation where she lends her body for a limited time to an agent/producer to earn very much money in a short time.

e) this agent has in her own and in his (her) interest to get her booked as often as possible.

f) the agent/producer therefore gets her tested, puts her on the pill, buys her cloths, takes pictures of her, advertizes her within the business, sells her image, books her etc.

g) creating a good business surrounding for her, he/she advertizes her beauty, her willingness to work, her special performances, her favorable price level compared to other starlets etc.

h) this is all made to get her as much money in as a short time possible (the same applys for the agent of course). So that she can after just a short time in this job return to her <averge Ukrainian 19 y.o.-life> - but with 1 big advantage: Her life and that of her family is payed for at least the next 10 years.

And just one last thing: "only 150$" in todays Ukraine is 2 1/2 months work worth of money!

Now let me say it as open as I can: As an agent I will aim at selling at least 20 scenes of a girl per month. I will do my best to sell her as expensive and as often as possible. I get 30% of her total fee, so the more I sell her the better for me. I will aim at selling her as often and as long as I can, but as the industry asks for more and more fresh faces (<fresh meat> in porn industry jargon), I will probabely be happy to keep her getting work for 3 months. Afterwards I will just replace her by a fresh face.

I will really care about a core of top notch long term talent. The rest I will sell and replace fast. But while they work I will do all my best to keep their body fit. For their body is my only capital.

I plan to get out 2000-5000$ in commission fee of each girl per month. About Half of this I have to reinvest in her health care, her cloths, pictures to be taken, body guards, phone calls etc. I plan to have up to 100 girls per month working for me by mid next year.

Yes, I will sell their meat cheap to an ever growing Western porn market, but their flesh is cheap only for Western investors. For my talent this <groundbreaking cheap fares> are really worth much.

I know a lot of porn fans dont want to hear about this side of the business. I'm in a lucky position that I dont have problems to enjoy any good porn scene knowing that the people involved do it mainly for the money. I dont look for love in porn. I look fast sexual relieve without obligations.

Shameless has always took a bit of stick and suffered from accusations that he exploits women, whether by using prostitutes or with his present business venture. Most of this stems from the fact that those of us in the West have little inkling of life in more deprived areas and yet feel free to dispense our 'good advice' and moralistic concerns.
I think he's just trying to point out the other side of the coin, or that the coin does at least have another side.

In my opinion, if Shameless is as he says he is, and how he has portrayed himself is a fair reflection of the truth, then people should back off a bit because the hypocrisy of much of the criticism he receives seems a bit wearing to me (I say this myself dressed in clothes that, for all I know, are produced by people on derisory wages in desperate poverty with little hope of escape, for rich western fashion companies).

My view anyway.

Yes shameless, you are an honest man. As long as girls are not forced to do it, it is ok to me!

They are not forced at all, Toylover. If you dont count material hardship as force. But also in Ukraine you can always find other <work>, and be it committing crimes.

Know what: Last week I recruited 18 new girls. It took me 3 days (not counting the advertizements running in local nowespaper) and I had Dotzens of them waiting in front of my door. I could really choose the youngest, healthiest and sexually most confident ones. More than 80% I had to turn down. Only 2 came with their pimps. I threw them out straight away. Pimps are just a pain in your ass. All the rest just came fresh of the mill, fresh of colledge, school, their parents. They say they go shopping to mum and go selling their body instead. Normal teens just needing money, some also an adventure.

I thought this over again last night: I did because last month some moderating board member accused me of forcing my girls to do anal. It was far from that, I protested than. But the accusation stuck in my mind, still does actually.

We do have a strong anal committement at my Agency. I call it <All Anal Agency> and I take this serious. Thus we dont contract girls not doing anal at all.
True, a pussy-only or lesbo only girl can not get listed for work with us. But than a positive tested girl cannot work with us either, a girl over 30 y.o. or a girl taller than 180 cm cannot work here too. Its just a set of rules in order to meet the customers requirements best.
It's also true that I did lowered the fee handed out to a girl still being booked for pussy-only by 100%, such as to have her earning more than twice as much if she does anal. This is one way to increase her readyness to perform anal, just one way to incite anal (the other being to give her a positive sexual anal adventure before she actually performs on set). Looking at other Agencies policies in the biz I strongly believe that anal is payed too badly ingeneral. I want to do away with this misproportion of anal being worth only 10 or 20% more than pussy-only.

I am coming to this business as a porn fan. As a porn fan, I want as much anal as possible. As an agent I want other similarly minded porn fans to give the same.
This has nothing to do with "forcing girls to do anal" however. Any girl basically prepared to perform anal, but letting herself be booked for pussy-only actually is more than welcome to work with me, as long as she gets booked enough. She will earn less than her collegues, but she will still earn more than an average Ukrainian monthly income per scene.

As an agent I really aim at selling as much DAPs as possible, because each DAP-scene earns me nearly 150$ in commission. I also want more DAPs shot because I wanna watch more DAPs in my own porn consume. And DAP usually really brings out the girls true inner self, it's a metaphysical thing eveolving on a plain porn set.
But that does not mean that each and every girl has to do DAP. If a girl builds up a good relation with a producer just doing pussy only so that he/she eventually books other girls doing anal and byond, fine.
I might run the first <All Anal Agency> out there in this biz, but I dont force my girls to do nothing! I just have my rules as everybody in this biz too.

I really honestly try to consider all conflicting moral issues. I am really open for discussion. It's my christian upbringing, I guess. I thought it over once more and really dont see anything wrong with my priceing policy. There are other forces far more strong, IMO. Such as restrictive society, abusive partners, abusive pimps, corrupetd policeman, sleazy doctors etc. But not a priclist paying half as much for pussy-only than for anal.

First of all, shameless, I am not accusing you of any specific behavior; my concern was more with what is happening in the former Soviet Union. As I said, this might turn into a long and elaborate discussion, but I just find it hard to believe that a 19 year old Ukrainian girl, many of whom, as you say, probably need an English-Ukrainian dictionary, is really ready for the hardcore porn industry. Now, she may be ready for some form of erotica, but anals, facials, dps, a2m? Has anybody explained to her what that means exactly? Are these girls educated enough to understand the implications of what it is they are doing.

I am really troubled (and I can see that you mean well and want to make money for the girls) when I see a website that advertises women the way one advertises meat or other merchandise.

You refer to "difficult material situations;" essentially what you mean is poverty. These girls are poor, their families are poor; some of them, perhaps, are young mothers with few if any educational credentials.

I feel queasy about what I see as the exploitation of the already exploited.

At any rate, that wasn't a comment on your business.

I am perfectly comfortable with women (and men) in pornography when they have a choice - an alternative way of addressing their livelihood. It is when they are driven to pornography out of desperation because of poverty or lured and trapped with drugs or coerced with threats of violence by someone attempting to profit by their action that I am much less comfortable; but I am unable to offer a viable alternative. Certainly a career in pornography is far superior to one in prostitution.

I just want to know when do we get to see some of these honeys in action!? Admittedly, I'm not terribly happy about the idea that girls are driven to porn by poverty. On the other hand, it's better than prostitution and the money they can make is so very much better than what they would get in a normal job. Plus, I've never been under the delusion that porn is any girl's ideal career choice.

2Big,
How should I not feel accused when - as a matter of fact - I basically advertize the girls I work with as merchandise on my homepage? Yes, of course I do it! And I do it because basically a Model Agency homepage is an advertizement outlet. I basically offer <fresh meat> to an ever demanding market. Persons with feelings this <cheap meat> become again when a customer really starts to work with them or when I as agent deal with them on a personal level. A homepage made for customers I think is the wrong place to adress all those conflicting issues like personal choice, poverty etc.
But I am well prepared to do it here at ADT:
2 things:
1) I do think like a lot of Westerners you are a bit too patronizing about former Soviet inhabitants, especially young female ones: These girls might not know english, but this does not make them low-intelligency people! As a matter of fact education level is still very high in most Ex-SU countries, certainly in Ukraine and Russia.
Also please dont pretend all Ukrainian 19 y.o. are virgins or girls with no sexual past at all! First in Kiev as well (as in Moscow) kind of sexual revolution is going on currently, secondly a lot of my girls have done some escorting before.

2) implications of a hardcore job in the USA and in Ex-SU might be not the same.
Here you really can do any job in a big town for a while without a lot of people noticing it. As porn consume is still very limited, a very expensive hobby and the country very big, chances somebody finds out about stand close to zero.

Now about the girls ability to understand what this kind of erotica means return to 1).
Also let me tell that we DO explain them what facial, DP, a2m, DAP means by actually performing it on them BEFORE they get booked for a porn set job. We do our best to <initiate> all of our girls, testing especially their anal capacity (I dont want my customers to book <fresh DAP-meat> and than to find out on the set only that the actual girl he is working with is too tight to perform!).

Now finally poverty and exploitation: I have explained inmany threads what the fact that the Ukrainian averge monthly income is currently around 55$ means in this context. I dont want to go into details here again.
But I do think it is healthy to look at the porn industry like any manufacturing business once in a while. Why should it be perfectly ok for the car industry to outsource their production in a low-wage country, but for porn not?
I basically offer the same service for half the price in Czech or Hungary and a quarter the price in LA. Still my girls canbuy much more with the money they earn than any US-porn girl.
Alternative choices are always, be it as limited as they are. (Small street trade, crime, prostitution, stay in poverty etc.)

Finally let me tell you about one strange feeling I have sometimes: When I sit in a cafe nearby my Kiev suite high above the Old Town I can watch all those beautiful young women stroll in the shoping streets. I really have warm feelings and a lot of sympathy for this (ukrainian) youngsters. Than suddenly every one of these beautiful girls I see and muse about turns into a piece of meat I sell to foreigners in my job!
I undress them in my mind, check up their warm pussy, open their ass, check out their 100% natural boobs, hand them in my wages-list and ask them to tick my model file boxes of acts they are ready to perform etc. Than all over a sudden I see happy end consumers beating it off to a nice high-charged piece of hardcore porn art!, I see actors fooling around with beautiful girls, I see lust-ridden faces near orgasm on set, I see smiling young girl's faces counting the cash they just earned, I see those smiling girls strolling around Kiev finally able to allow themselfs to buy some nice fashion-skirt.
At the end of the day I dont see myself as an exploiter - really not!

As Shamless has said before, most of the girls he's hiring were and are currently working as escorts and are moving into the movie business by choice (of a kind, but yes still driven by financial needs) now...
Surely it is safer and a cleaner enviroment for the girls to be working on a set with "clean" clients or male stars than with average Joes from the street that could have anything running around on and in them.
Surely on set is a safer (in terms of physical harm) place for them to be working than in some back ally or some clients house or motel room.

Now the way I see it...
Most of the women acting in porn movies are doing it for the money (ok so some are for the love of sex all hail to Selena, Ariana et al) but the truth remains that a large percentage of performers are "forced" in to the profession due to finanical needs.. just like the girls that Shamless is hiring. So I realy see no difference there between the performers that we see on screen all the time and the ladies that Shamless is working with.

From what Shamless has mentioned already, and I'm led to believe that what he's writing is the truth, I see no more "exploitation" and "forcing" by him than any other Porn talent agency in any contry... Ok so maybe he's "sampling the wares" before selling, but then he wants to know that he's providing a good and reliable product to the end consumer. And... if the girls didn't want to "give one away for free" I don't see him forcing himself on them.. from what I've read so far.

So how is what he's doing any different than what the Porn talent agencies in the US are doing?
How are these girls any different from the girl out there in the US or Europe at the lower end of the Porn food chain (or just starting out)?

Maybe I've missed something along the line and maybe I'm too open minded, if so please tell me and I'm more than happy to stand corrected. All I can see that Shamless is doing is telling us about the "dark side" or the Behind the scenes aspect of the Porn industry and maybe that's shocking and offending some people that still insist on spending huge amounts of money on the end result.

Having said that.. I wouldn't mind seeing some of these girls in action or performing.. and then I believe one could honestly see if they were beiong forced or taken advantage of... I can't imagine that these newby starletts would be good enough actresses already to hide deep scars.

Anyway... leaving you to it agian...

Wraith, <sampling the wares>, as strange as it might sound to some, is really the most natural thing in my work - as well for me as for the girls. They perfectly well do understand that I have to know them as good as possible to get them good porn jobs suitable for them. Thats like undressing in front of a doctor before examination.
Also let me inform you that actually I stared to pay them some fee for their time, if they are not already on our basic wage list (preventing them to carry on with escorting). I think an atmosphere of trust and transparency is very important in that agent-model relationship.
One difference I see is that Ukrainian girls really do earn more money if you are taking in account buying power than US-models performing the same acts. But appart from this I dont see any differnce at the moment, too.

Finally, I dont aim at showing here voyeuristicly a dark part of the porn industry. I think the business side of selling/buying pussy/ass/sexual service etc is just a natural and integral aspect of porn. There is nothing <wrong> about it, on the contrary it gives a lot of freedom of cjoice and possibilties. But most important I think is to enjoy those wonderful female bodies showed in porn dvds. I deeply believe that god created women to bring joy to the world. All I basically aim at with my work is to keep people deeply embedded in depravity happy - and to earn my living doing it. And have lots of fun myself, too.
Live is too short to not enjoy kinky <bad> sex!

Let me just add that many girls are really keen in me samling them even more than once because they do think they can influence my decision to export them to West by that. Since word spread amongst my talent that 4 girls can work in the USA beginning 2004, I do notice increased offers to meet <for just some fun>. While this puts me an a very confortable position, in the customers interest I have first to work on my growing not-yet-DAP-tested girls first. Also please let my stress that I try not to get bribed by this behaviour. Customers wishes and ability to perform shall always prevail.
