Colin,
I have given this quite some thought recently, especially considering situations with girls from "poor countries" working in the adult industry. It appears quite a few of them are not very happy doing the work and struggle with it. Their employers often seem uninterested, because there are plenty of fish in the sea.
In the end, though, they have the choice and they choose to take the money and put up with the conditions. And they make good money, especially by a poor country's standard.
As long as it is an honest deal, where they know what they (have to) do and what they will get in return, I do not think it is exploitation.
At least not more than any other employer would try to make the most out of the people he/she pays. I see that dictionary.com also mentioned this as a meaning of the word "exploited": "developed or used to greatest advantage". And that can be considered good business..
Greetings,
Art

I agree with this. It's actually pretty sad.
It depends on which angle you're working from. In Gregg's case he sees models all day and here in the states they all think their asses are plated with gold. This most likely stems from the days when content was purchased at a much higher rate. Now in order for anyone to make a living production cost must come down.
Then you look at hardcore girls who will be with any other model making $500.00 and their shit is everywhere. It would make more sense to me to get paid $350.00 for hour as an escort, elite clients who will most likely see you again.
Gregg you hear the stories all the time. So do I.
Maybe I’m wrong.
