We are not porno enough

I've been in porn for almost 5 years. I started in 2011 with Rocco Siffredi (I sent him an email asking to shoot me). In these years I've had the chance to meet and work with almost everybody in the business (Europe/USA). I soon realized that porn people are not as pro-sex as I thought. Rocco Siffredi himself announced in a survival TV show that he was retiring as a porn actor because he considered it to be in conflict with his marriage (due to this I decided to cut off my friendship with him.)

Most hardcore performers have a decadent relationship with sex, in the sense that to be interesting it has to be extreme and grotesque and enjoy pushing their pain limits and using physical violence as a means of domination/submission (no, I'm not talking about BDSM scenes that keep the situation under control). I've noticed that many of these performers late in their careers show an anti-porn and traditionalist attitude towards sex.

Many porn performers have a conflictual relationship with love and tend to have exclusive relationships. I know a lot of performers who value their partner's jealousy and keep some sexual practices for their love partner alone: sometimes interrupting their careers during a love affair. When both partners are porn performers, they may be uncomfortable on the same set.

In the USA porn market, some girls early in their careers put limits to the kind of sex to perform, until it's the right time in "big-paid movies" for their first specific sexual performance, usually in this order:

1. girl-girl
2. boy-girl
3. interracial
4. boy-girl-anal
5. interracial anal

Stretching out sexual concessions in time is an "economic scarcity" technique: symbolically, it's like losing different kinds of virginity on video, each one of which has a specific economic counterpart for the performer.

This satisfies people's deep seated racist and sexist desires. It's not by chance that their first IR scene is always with a black guy.

A male gay performer, on the other hand, will have no advantage in stretching out his sexual concessions: nobody will pay him more when shooting with a woman for the first time.

How can we as porn people legitimize what we are doing if we keep sustaining social stereotypes on sex?
