Study - porn stars "aren't damaged" by profession

Study: Porn Stars Aren’t “Damaged” by Their Profession
A report finds adult actresses are happier than the rest of us -- and that being naked might lead to self-esteem.
November 28, 2012 |




A common stereotype of a female porn star is an insecure, sexually abused, mentally ill and/or drug-addled woman. It’s one supported by anecdotes (most memorably by Linda Lovelace’s harrowing autobiography) and rhetoric (the feminist scholar Catharine MacKinnon went so far as to claim that all porn actresses were sexually abused as children). But as for actual research? Eh, not so much.

Now, a new study claims to have debunked this truism, which is known as the “damaged goods hypothesis.”

Some performers were amused by the news. “As a happy, healthy female porn performer, my reaction is: thanks, science, thanks so much for proving I am real,” says writer and porn performer Lorelei Lee in an email.

On a similar note, porn actress Dylan Ryan tells me, “It’s about time that research catches up to the realities for a great many women who perform in porn,” she says in an email. “It’s important to me as a performer that the conversation evolve and develop to make space for the (as in any community and population) diversity of experiences, personalities and lifestyles of porn performers.”

Adult actress and director Kimberly Kane took a different tack. “I’ve found that everyone is damaged no matter what line of work they’re in,” she says.

Researchers compared self-reports from a group of nearly 200 porn actresses to those of women outside the industry who were similar in age, ethnicity and marital status. Not only did the report show no higher incidence of child sexual abuse or psychological problems among female performers, but it actually found that pornsters had higher levels of self-esteem and sexual satisfaction....

Her idea of what went into a loving relationship was way outta whack, she figured that as long as she was giving you all you could handle, that was enough... beyond that she was a moneygrubbing liar and cheater.

Anyway, i guess my bottom line is that i'd never again try to put something together with someone who'd worked in the sex industry in any capacity whatsoever.
I don't blame you. As I mentioned earlier, strippers (and from what you're describing, escorts) have a different "self-worth" than porn stars, in my experience.

These women that are "Porn Stars", like Sunny Leone, Jill Kelly, Jenna Jamison, Kimberly Kane, so on and so forth truly see themselves as "International Stars". Their movies make millions, their work is seen worldwide and in nearly every way, they truly are "Stars".

That's a different stratosphere than the chick working at the local strip club to support her kids because her Baby Daddy ran off or because she was sexually abused as a child.

Yaeh, that previously mentioned porn doc made it very clear that many of those women are treated just like any regular movie star in many places, particularly overseas.

Its hard to imagine being in a relationship with an active one though, lol, "bye hun, i'm off to the triple penetration gangbang, dont wait up!"

I suppose. I mean, it's not for me, but either is swinging, an open marriage, so on and so forth. Yet, there are millions upon millions of people who enjoy those lifestyles, so live and let live.

In the defense of pornstars having an fulfilling life after stardom, many of them have kids to focus on. In fact, some of those kids were prenatal co-stars in the films that will pay for their tuition one day.

The problem is that 95% of all strippers elsewhere are the exact opposite.
St. Louis, Illinois? you mean East St. Louis? because it's St. Louis MISSOURI, brah

Anyway, those chicks were ****ing hoodrats.

Okay, cool. I've only been to St. Louis maybe twice in my life, so I wasn't doubting you.
