1. Everything happens in a homey way
Today, porn shoots often take place not on a special site, but in the apartment or house of the directors, producers, and other representatives of the industry. Colleagues, figuratively speaking, visit each other to work, and thus provide a variety of interiors in one film. This approach creates the illusion that you are watching amateur video, as if an ordinary couple is having sex at home.
2. A film takes a couple of days
Usually, a full-length film is shot over 2 to 4 days. If it's a quality film with porn stars, the process can stretch to 8 days. Sometimes there is a screenwriter present on set to help with the dialogues. But often actors just improvise.
3. The sexual act is often interrupted
Don't believe your eyes when the heroes of porn have sex for several minutes in a complicated acrobatic pose. Most likely, this scene is pieced together from several 30-second episodes, during which the actors manage to smoke a cigarette, stretch, and reapply lubricant.
4. A squirt actually looks different
Streamed female orgasm, or squirt, became popular thanks to porn. However, the fountains of liquid we see on screen have little to do with reality. To create a colorful picture, actresses pour water into their vaginas, hold it there, and at the right moment push it out. Yes, not every woman can do this: she needs to train her vaginal muscles and rehearse.
Some porn stars use a different trick. Before shooting, they drink a lot of water with electrolytes. As a result, the liquid is retained in the body, and urine becomes colorless. When it is time to portray a vigorous orgasm, the actress releases a powerful stream. But it is not at all what the viewers think.
5. Sperm is made from liquid soap
Even the most hypersexual macho cannot produce the amount of sperm shown in a porn film. In many cases, it is artificial. For example, hand soap handles the role of abundant ejaculation. For a spectacular climax, actors squeeze a tube of white liquid hidden under their penis at the right moment. This move requires certain skill, and much depends on the operator's expertise.
6. Before anal scenes, they use an enema
In addition to everything going smoothly, actors sometimes have to fast the day before or adhere to a strict rice diet.
7. Not everyone can star in porn
About 99% of men who want to earn money in porn do not pass the selection because they are physically unable to perform. More precisely, to maintain an erection in front of strangers and under the shouts of the director.
Shooting one scene takes 1.5 to 2 hours. During this time, the actor must demonstrate a confident erection. Between takes, the hardworking men do not rest, but masturbate or press against their partners to maintain themselves in working condition. After orgasm, the fighters are given about 20 minutes to rest, they have lunch, and then — back to the grind.
8. Viagra is not welcomed on set
From Viagra, the skin often becomes red, and as a result, the actor does not look good on camera. For this reason, directors do not encourage the use of stimulants (although sometimes it cannot be avoided).
9. Guys stay in the profession longer than girls
According to statistics A Study of 10,000 Porn Stars and Their Careers , the average age to start a career in porn is 22 for girls and 24 for guys. Moreover, the former burn out after about 3 years, while the latter burn out after 4. In comparison, in the 1970s, porn actors stayed in the profession three times longer: men for 12 years and women for 9.
10. Men in porn are in high demand
A few more interesting gender statistics. In the list of the 100 most frequently filmed porn stars, 96 are men. Of these, the top 10 have, on average, changed 1,013 partners on screen.
Among the first ten most prolific (in terms of creativity) porn actresses the results are much more modest: an average of 148 lovers over their career.
11. Women’s fees are higher than their sex partners'
Despite the fact that men have a harder time, porn is one of the few industries where women's earnings are higher Porn’s dirtiest secret: What everyone gets paid than those of penis holders. For example, for a heterosexual scene, an average American actress will receive 800 to 1,000 dollars, while her partner will get only 500 to 600. When it comes to star fees, for girls it reaches 2,500 dollars per scene, while for guys it is 1,500.
What explains this injustice? It's simple: the main consumers of porn are men, and they watch such films for the sake of seductive ladies.
12. The risk of contracting AIDS in porn is minimal
Every two weeks, actors get tested for sexually transmitted infections. The percentage of HIV-positive individuals among porn industry workers is lower than among the general population.
13. Office romances happen on porn sets
Porn actors find it hard to find a partner outside the industry. After all, not everyone can accept such a profession and not be jealous of their partner's colleagues. However, workers themselves know the specifics well and can abstract from it. Thanks to such mutual understanding among colleagues, romances often flare up.
