The point of sarcasm is to have an outwardly appearance of agreeing with someone's point while simultaneously disagreeing with their point by pointing out the absurdity of their statements by agreeing with them. When done properly, it often generates lols, giggles, high fives, and +1s. The younger generation may display their endorsement by posting something like "burn" or "pwn'd". When done improperly, it often results in someone misunderstanding and replying with a serious retort because they are not sophisticated enough to recognize sarcasm when they see it.

I actually can respect what they did, I was just amazed that it was kept so quiet more than anything else.

I enjoyed her portfolio then found a reference to her on an adult entertainment site (because I don't watch porn). I've seen a couple of her independent art films (because I don't watch porn) and I now find her to be absolutely fascinating. But I don't watch porn, so I don't know what you are talking about. Jan 06 10 04:41 pm Link Why am I hearing a J Geils Band song running through my head as I am reading this? I've experienced the same revelation regarding some of my model peers in the past, many of whom were well respected/at the top of their game (guess now I know why). Hmm, actually we may be talking about the same people, although I'd guess that the porn industry is larger than the modeling industry (no pun intended).

Jan 06 10 04:42 pm Link Why would anybody be surprised that a) people enjoy sex and b) enjoy being paid for it?  I wouldn't be surprised to find that any model also did porn and I certainly wouldn't be surprised to find that I've worked with a few that do although it's not something I would ask about or feel the need to be aware of. I might be a bit disappointed if somebody I considered a personal friend kept it from me, but again I wouldn't really be surprised as too many people are very judgemental about sexual expression and porn in general and unless you know somebody's view on the subject it's probably easier/safer just not to mention it.

Jan 06 10 04:43 pm Link Unless someone is doing something that directly affects you why would you care what anyone else does or doesn't do with their lives?? Live and let live is a VERY good policy in my mind.

Jan 06 10 04:52 pm Link Pterigiontuurani wrote: No. Many replies on this thread and many others on Model Mayhem is not of the serious nature. In fact, the creator of this site even coded in certain emoticons that are purely for entertainment. He went as far as writing code to change the word s c a r y to scary. Such is the risk and nature of starting a thread in a non industry forum on a site called Model Mayhem. Jan 06 10 04:53 pm Link In spite of the seemingly open-minded attitudes by many in this thread regarding chicks doing porn, for the chick who does porn, often enough, there are negative consequences. Consequences that can effect their current and future relationships, career opportunities, and more. The majority of people in this country don't view performing in porn as an acceptable or morally-right or simply okay occupation. The majority in this country are quite judgemental people. Too many young women decide to go into porn for the wrong reasons. (Altho when they do, they don't usually see it that way.) Just because a narrow demographic, like photographers and models here in this forum, mostly see porn as acceptable, leastwise for others, doesn't mean most other demographics do so as well. I'm just saying. Jan 06 10 04:54 pm Link Are you talking about modeling for paysites or full blown out penetration porn? There's tons of models on this website that model for paysites- and some don't even realize it when they shoot with the photographer.

Jan 06 10 04:58 pm Link Don't judge a book by it's cover!!!! Not everyone with in the adult industry is shit... It's just a path they chose to make...

I wasn't trying to judge anyone or say I was offended at all. Literally nothing offends me at all. It has nothing to do with attention. I've been here since 2005, more than happy to fly under the radar. I generally try to stay away from controversial threads. I didn't intend for this one to blow up like this. Jan 06 10 05:01 pm Link It's my impression that courtesans were well respected members of society in some countries, ages. Playmates are respected by many (models) who turn their noses up at nudes, No this isn't the same as the sex "industry" but then, there are many ways to view this matter. And it's mostly non of our concern wht a woman does with her property or her body. I don't see the point of this inquery, however curiosity is a trait we all possess, Jan 06 10 05:01 pm Link I think that the respect, popularity and money only double if a model does porn. Us models like money and popularity... I have not done porn before ever but I'm trying to make a point on why some models who already have a good name would go into porn. Porn is an easy way to get more noticed and make more money. What can I say, sex sells.. Some models may have gotten popular off their porn first and your just barely learning about it.. Jan 06 10 05:02 pm Link What a gossipy man. Dude you have lost your man card! None of your motherfucking business! Jan 06 10 05:02 pm Link So what's the problem?

Jan 06 10 05:05 pm Link yup! my favorite model from prior years (NOT on my portfolio) turns out had done some porn in his past, and has now returned to the industry, and is very successful at it. at first i was only surprised, having worked with him numerous times and simply never having known nor heard about it in the small town area we lived in at the time. i think it's great if he's succesful at it and is happy.

What exactly do you mean by "you worked this dude"? Jan 06 10 05:09 pm Link Things chance, look at all the actors that do nude roles. Money talks, some grow up!!!! Jan 06 10 05:10 pm Link I don't care if I'm shooting a film... or casting a stills series.. If someone has chosen to do adult work, AND if they're talented as a non-adult actress or model, then I simply find that the adult models who are already more exposed and (no way to avoid this pun) open in their physicality... can also be more emotionally available as an actor or model**, because Guess What?... It's a Job... and It's a skill and a talent to be able to effectively portray the desired end "character" on film/video, no matter the genre/media. In some French, Mexican cinema, etc. the actors actually have sex when "God forbid" in USA cinema, they are usually pretending to have sex. But we expect in USA cinema that we can show a little, but not a lot, or not a certain thing but that the actors are usually only pretending. What a partitioning of parts. The partitioning or pretense is much more deceptive than whatever someone has chosen to do as a profession. More power to clear thought and individual freedom to decide! [**footnote: they "can be" more available as an actor/actress, but that's assuming they have a raw/innate talent to begin with] Jan 06 10 05:11 pm Link Porn Stars are well respect in my book, so as escort girls. I would rather work with them than newbie models on MM full of cell phone pictures in their port.  Jan 06 10 05:12 pm Link |
