The porn industry has as many opinions as it has assholes, both literally and figuratively. In the past expressing these opinions was overwhelmingly motivated by a common agenda, to make a buck. The reasons for wanting the money were varied, from lifestyle, to debt, to addiction. However motivation was never sexual, the sexual aspect was just the commodity, although having a high sex drive, or particular fetish did help keep the job from getting boring. Money is no longer the driving force behind the modern anything goes industry, if you can even call it an industry, with everything else redefined including virginity and gender.
Now in the middle of this social fiasco comes Covid; I’ve had to deal with germaphobes, masks, covid tests and now vaccine status. Through all of this insanity my objective hasn’t changed, I’m here for the money. And I expect those I work with to be of a similar ilk, and bring an old school sex worker’s mentality to the porno table. After all, if I was looking for complications in my life, I would have found a career that I could have put on a bank loan application. Needless to say, the only talent I book on my sets are those that show up without asking too many questions. No surprise, then, that my roster of available performers has been reduced.
What does come as a surprise is that I can pretty much guess who is going to be problematic based on their education level, social background, politics and to a lessor extent how much time they spend on Fartbook and/or TWIT’r. If they’re under 30, they’re white, have been to university, come from at least an upper middle class family and vote Democrat. If they’re over 30 they might not have been to university but everything else is the same. The only exception to this rule are the morons that seem to always be on social moron media and moron is an understatement.
Honestly, the only opinion I have about Covid is that it makes me angry when the obese, the smokers and other people that abuse their bodies expect me to protect their health. People that don’t care enough to to take care of themselves shouldn’t be my problem. Unfortunately, there’s a hell of a lot of web-designers, etc in the adult industry that need to go on a diet and get into a gym. I’m sick of hearing these entitled jackasses blame healthy people for lockdowns and loss of income. Looking to people I’ve know in the biz, Ron Jeremy comes to mind. He said that he made his own hell because he chose to live at the buffet table. Ronny chose food over health and never once did he ever tell me that I had to deal with his problems. He dealt with his own…. He owned it and that attitude is a rarity these days.
Currently, the only people on my sets (or in my escort agency) are genuine whores. When it’s for video they show up with their ID and when it’s for outcall, they leave their ID in the car. They know that they can’t suck a cock wearing a mask and that they won’t get paid unless they suck those cocks. Plus if you’re going to get sick, it’s best to paid in the process. After all, the doctor isn’t going to give you a freebie.
