Men: Would You Ever Consider Starring In Porn?

[MikeH]

Mmm, but the guys in white guy porn are still extremely jacked and big dicked, so maybe not THAT relatable for the average guy, although the face definitely gives them less god status.

Well, let's see, who is the most famous of all times?

I rest my case.

 

[Tabanico]

I would love to take part in a JAV shoot - specifically the gangbang stuff, and especially the Sperm Mania stuff (warning to would-be Googlers: 97% of visitors to this site will probably not be comfortable with their output!). If I weren't married I would have no issue with people finding out if porn was my main source of income, but most of the stuff that I like to watch tends to keep the men pretty anonymous.

 

[RightOn6975]

I look at it like this, what would my life look like after porn? Because of this, I would have to say no. Yeah the prospect of having multiple sexual partners is quite enticing, the fact of being who I have to know in order to get in, my face being plastered all over the internet for future employers to see, my family knowing what I would be doing, and the fact that many studios apparently frown upon safe sex has me saying a hard no.

 

[JackB]

No.


No.

I share the same thoughts.. except for Japanese actors. Only because I don’t watch JAV and can’t speak on that.

Maybe TMI, but when looking up porn, I try to find male actors with the highest amount of tattoos. They’re the type of guys I usually can’t have. It’s even nicer when they’re featured in BBW porn..

So you like tattoos or things you usually can't have?

Why not both?

Exactly

I understand why women would be interested in doing porn. Money, fame, higher rank in sexwork, curiosity, etc.. but when men do it, most seem to have gotten into the industry because they wanted to have sex with multiple women and get paid for it at the same time.

While there is less stigma for straight male sexworkers, I’ve been wondering if they ever think or care about their privacy. With men being the biggest consumers of porn, I can easily imagine the scenario where their porn content is discovered by their fathers, brothers, grandfathers, uncles, sons, male coworkers, male friends, etc..

So, my question is, would you ever consider becoming a male pornstar? And how willing would you be to show your face?

About 15 years ago, when I was in my early 20's that was my dream to have sex with tons of women and get paid for it.
Perhaps I didn't have the "connections", someone who can hook me up into the business.
Now that I am close to 40 and married that will be more difficult to do.
I am japanese so physical appearance and working visa will not be a problem for me in order to work as a japanese adult movie actor.
I guess I never got the opportunity when the "time was right"

My understanding, and I admit that this is hearsay and not from actual experience with professional male porn talent, is that most western male porn actors get paid very little compared to their female counter parts. Most of them have to do boy/boy scenes to make a living wage even though they may be exclusively hetero in their personal life.

There are a few, who basically film, direct, edit, act, the whole shebang who make money simply because they are small operations and only really have to pay the female talent plus the cost of a hotel room for the daily filming expenses. But managing to open that type of site and pay the bills is very difficult when most consumers of porn don't actually pay for it. I only know of a few sites who actually use that type of business model and continue to survive.

Below are the shooting rates for kink.com, a large producer of bdsm porn in San Francisco:
MODEL RATES - STUDIO SCENES
Model pay varies according to content, sexual contact and website, as well as industry experience, but the following rates should give you, a potential model, a general idea of what kind of pay is to be expected when shooting for Kink.com. Pay rate is determined at the time of booking.

• 
  Female Models
• Female Models make $500 - $600 in a solo scene.
• Female Models make $500 - $800 as a top or bottom as a participant in a girl/girl scene.
• Female Models make $600 - $1300 as a top or bottom in a boy/girl scene.
• Female Models make $700 - $1100 as a bottom in a TS female/girl scene.

• 
  Male Models
• Male models make $500 as a bottom in a boy/TS female scene.
• Male models make $500 as a bottom in a boy/girl scene.
• Male models make $800+ as a top or bottom in a boy/boy scene.
• Male models make $200 - $400 as a top in a boy/girl scene. Pay is highly dependent upon experience and performance in this category.

• 
  TS Female Models
• TS Female models make $800 - $1200 as a top in a TS Female/boy scene or a TS Female/girl scene.

As you can see, for males there is no option at all to shoot solo, max pay is $800 and that's only if you bottom. $400 is highest rate if your topping and could be as low as $200. Women meanwhile get at least $500 to be shot solo, have a significantly higher top end pay for being a bottom in any scenario, and the lowest they get for topping is $200 higher than the HIGHEST a man gets in the same role. The only way a male actor is going to compete with the women wage wise is in boy/boy. Therefore I think very few of them are in the industry because they are getting paid to have sex with multiple women. And remember this is a specialized segment of porn that often pays higher than normal due to the additional risks involved.

Add to that fact that porn acting truly is acting. Someone says cut and you got to stop, start a scene over wait for people to adjust lighting etc etc. All the while you have to stay hard and be ready to go when they shout "Action". Oh and you don't get to cum when your ready. You have to cum on demand, for the specific scene at the specific moment. Pretty demanding.

While there is less stigma for straight male sexworkers, I’ve been wondering if they ever think or care about their privacy. With men being the biggest consumers of porn, I can easily imagine the scenario where their porn content is discovered by their fathers, brothers, grandfathers, uncles, sons, male coworkers, male friends, etc..

Today, it's seen as sort of empowering for women to go into porn and own that fact and be proud of it. I don't think the same is true for most male actors. I mean, I can't really think of a time when I've thought to myself, I really wish I could be like <insert male porn actor here>. That is if we talk about being in their daily life, not the actual onscreen moment of being with an insanely hot women. I think there is still very much a stigma to being a male porn actor and since many of these heterosexual men must shoot homosexual porn for financial reasons I think they have real fears and concerns about privacy. Especially when there are still huge problems with violence against homosexual men I would think a lot of these western actors live in fear of the day someone recognizes them.

So, my question is, would you ever consider becoming a male pornstar? And how willing would you be to show your face?

Having said all the above I would still totally consider being in Porn but not willing to show my face. Why wouldn't I show my face?
I don't think many people are actually going to want to see me in porn or hire me for a scene. Knowing that the pay is so much lower for men I couldn't quit my day job and just like some escorts work hard to protect their civilian life I would do the same since it's still where most my money would be made.

One of my SB's has opened a manyvids account and is planning on selling amateur porn. We have discussed it and I'm quite sure I'll make an appearance from time to time but I plan on keeping my face hidden and voice disguised in case anybody I know were to buy/watch her porn. She is also debating about showing her own face. She would really rather wear a mask but doesn't think people would pay porn where you couldn't see the girls face.

 

[SatoKM]

That could be an option! Just showing part of my body (like a POV scene) or as you suggested Alice, appear in scenes with my face blurred.

Still have to make contact with an agency. Kind of hard, as I have been only AV recruiters for female talent but not looking for new male faces

 

[Simonka]

I don't know... white pornstars are often jacked but i usually find their faces extremely unattractive!
Japan has some kinda attractive actors, but they also have a whole genre of "gross men" porn.

Ugh and they're always shaved. No chest hair at all and covered in oil. Like big bald full body sized dicka saying yeeaarhh at random times. While the bolt ons jump up and down and you feel like they're looking at you and judging.

Nobody kisses. Nobody snuggles afterwards and stare at the ceiling while panting.

I prefer amateur porn

I agree that for JAV the fantasy is "that balding fat guy is banging a hot lady, that could be me!"
And I think for say the USA it's "that six-packed huge-dicked guy is banging a hot lady, that could be me!"

True, and that’s because adult movies are mostly made for men in both cases. But now I wonder how guys look like in AV targeting ladies (as clients). There must be a niche market for that and it would be interesting to compare.

About exactly what you'd expect them to look like - clean cut, gari-macho ikemen.

To be me, at least, most of the guys look to be more or less cut from the same cloth.

As for me - naw, even if they blurred my face I'd be fucked.
I've got enough big, distinctive tattoos that the only way I could pull it off is if I was wearing zenshin tights.

Waow he was pretty handsome in his youth. Cute face and beautiful smile

Yup, that's pretty much why there's a lot of old/fat dudes in American porn (or at least used to be before the days of the blue pill). They found actors that could reliably get it up, keep it up, and come on command under the pressure of filming, and those guys were in demand as long as they wanted to continue to act, regardless of their looks.

 

[e-smile]

I was interested in doing it and a friend who is porn actor was willing to link me with this word and explained to me that I don't have to show my face. But the pay he told me about was very low, from 10k to 20k so I was very disappointed considering I once got 300k for a commercial shooting that took 2 days near Mt Fuji.

Hey that’s about what some escorts charge! Congrats!
Did you have to use your dick too, for this “commercial shooting” ?

I actually used it but later in the night after the shooting

Sounds like he was even being generous because i've heard 8000 yen for a whole day of shooting is pretty normal.

Its appalling, i think, especially with the social stigma that comes with it (and face blurring does not 100% erase the chance of being discovered). I can understand if some guys do it more for a hobby and don't care about the pay, but the reality of filming is much less fun than it sounds in theory

That guy is wearing foundation..
His face doesn't match to his Neck and a little blurred out if you look carefully.

He's a good looking Asian guy, but I wouldn't know what to do with a guy who has well applied makeup on his face..

I agree. If I was a lady and the guy had make-up, I would prefer the whole shebang, like this one
