Curse of a Porn Star

I read somewhere that our behavior is controlled in a huge way by our genes. They are simply eager to 'mate'- to impregnate and spread their mutation into the next generation. That's what comes to be known as the 'sex urge' or 'the drive'. The hormones run havoc and we become slaves of our senses.

Apparently, had we not evolved into this complex thinking machine, our sole goal would have been to make sure we produced as many babies as possible. (Bulk production)

That made me think about our Macho Porn star. Imagine going through the process of sex as a career - sounds very lucrative for a while, but in the long
run Naaah !

That's what it is. One thing that is supposed to be an act of pleasure becomes harangued with paychecks, performance, audience, deadlines and critics ? Not to say a boss and the video camera guy. And yes, the overall assumption that "Oh ! Porn star ? Must be hell of a life buddy !"
Hell, indeed it is.

Yes, and that's what they make. (male Porn stars). 200 $/scene - around 1 to 2 days of shooting, multiple ejaculations, painful extended erections and God knows how many mg's of Viagra - not to mention pounding headaches and flushed faces (courtesy, viagra). And yes, in case you mess up(as in timing !) the all-so-important Cumshot, you pop a pill and everyone on the set gets a 1 hour rest before your batteries are up again.
Hell, some people even die because of 'Over Inspiration' :-

Et tu, Viagra ? (An example of death due to Viagra)

All in all, i rest my point - Being a male pornstar is a 'high risk career option'. On the outset it may seem lucrative but like any other Good-looking book, it does not make a good read on the inside !
And just in case you think that it's an easy way of becoming a celebrity (minus the theatrical skills), all stardom and all eyes are reserved on the fairer sex !
So the next time you go about seeing a Porn, spare a thought for the poor performer.
Adios !
