    Default Stripper Today, Pornstar Tomorrow

    Hi. I am a stripper at an upmarket Las Vegas Nightclub and live with my boyfriend, Mark. We lead a pretty open lifestyle and mark is very co operative in all that I wanna do and gives me absolute freedom.

    I am very very keen on being a pornstar and Mark says that he will support me in whatever manner I need his support. In fact, as my previous posts would have possibly indicated, he lets me be very very free with his friends too, as he feels, (and so do I) that that kind of a free and open mental attitude would be essential to becoming a pornstar.

    Am talking to a couple of companies. I am 20 years old and hope to sew up some contracts in a couple of months.

    Do you think I am on the right track? Any precautions you would suggest? Any other suggestions?

    That's great that both he and you are on the same page...#1 importance is support at home.

    Of course, there's always the MAJOR issue of safety - making sure someone (not you) checks out the company to see they're legit, legal, and following all health/safety rules. Making sure you get paid can also be tricky with "secondary" or lesser companies

    Of course, producing your own is always an option. For a while, I ran an editing service for couples doing their own "home stuff"

    If you want any more info, feel free to PM me...

    Don't get swindled if you go that way. You know, lump sum minus residuals..happens all the time in many industries.
    Are you sure you want to do that...? Porn is permanent. You might get bitten on the behind in the future by such a decision.
    I KNOW I'm raining on your parade, but you have to look at the bigger picture.

    The three-month window between required HIV tests is too large to prevent transmission of the virus. The industry is still shooting too many scenes without condoms, and condoms don't offer much protection against HPV and herpes transmission.

    I wouldn't recommend taking the health risk.

    read Jenna Jamesons book "How to Make Love like a Porn Star". it has a lit of good information in it about the industry, what happens to relationships, good films versus bad, etc. plus it's a good book. but good luck no matter what you decide!!

    OK....now for something COMPLETELY different.....

    First, a bit about me. I used to strip, but don't anymore. Back when I did, I had the chance to do porn, and was in ONE movie but didn't do any contact -- I was just "third set of naked boobs from the left", if you know what I mean. I have a LOT of friends in the biz now-a-days, and they're great people. Yeah, the whole HIV thing is an issue for them, but the "current HIV test" and the fact that they are RELENTLESS in the biz about not having casual sex outside the fraternity with people who are NOT tested is what keeps them alive. The HIV scare earlier this year is ALL traced to ONE GUY who had unprotected sex outside the fraternity. Amazingly, given the thousands of people in the San Fernando Valley who are active in the porn biz, only a few came up HIV positive, which is a testament to how quickly the safety net kicks in.

    I'm married now, and while I don't have a prob with stripping, I really DO have a "fidelity" issue with sex. Sooooo..... while I frankly wish I could go back in time and do the whole porn-star thingie, I frankly simply can't go there emotionally.

    I'm not alone in that. Believe it or not, there are a lot of girls in porn who are in committed relationships and simply can't do male-female scenes. They'll only do masturbation or girl/girl scenes.

    On the other hand, there are a lot of married couples in porn, where both of them are into it.

    I'd think the real problem will be if one of you is in the biz and the other isn't. Can he deal with that? If you really think he can handle it -- and if YOU think YOU can handle it -- then go for it. Let me know what I can do to help.
