Shawn I will have to disagree on some your points here….only because if the looks portion was to be in effect then Ron Jeremy would have not been allowed to work after his looks to a degree faded. Good looking men are only necessary in three genres of porn.
• Couples porn
• Gay porn
• Specialty niche porn (bangbros So. Florida types and/or vast majority of print work)
The reasons behind them are all because of demographics. Fat, Ugly and Old men control the destinies of most heterosexual porn companies, since they are the prime consumers of the product. Just how many freaks of nature are the true fan boys who spend a lot of money tiring to get close to their idols? I take it you have not been to ANY conventions right? If so you would be able to see what I’m talking about. Women in the past, present and in the future will control the sales of hardcore straight porn as far as the talent side is concerned.
