How Do Some Aging Porn Stars . . .

[gonzo]

...continue to work? By turning to the church for their next game. Heres Shelly Lubben's "testamonial". Reads more like a book pitch to me.

Sex-packed porn films featuring freshly-dyed blondes whose evocative eyes say "I want you" is quite possibly one of the greatest deceptions of all time. Trust me, I know. I did it all the time and I did it for the lust of power and the love of money. I never liked sex. I never wanted sex, and in fact I was more apt to spend time with Jack Daniels than some of the studs I was paid to "fake it" with. That's right, none of us freshly-dyed blondes like doing porn. In fact, we hate it. We hate being touched by strangers who care nothing about us. We hate being degraded with their foul smells and sweaty bodies. Some women hate it so much they can be heard vomiting in the bathroom between scenes. Others can be found outside smoking an endless chain of Marlboro lights…

But the porn industry wants YOU to think we porn actresses love sex. They want you to think we enjoy being degraded by all kinds of repulsive acts. The truth, porn actresses have showed up on the set not knowing about certain requirements and were told by porn producers to do it or leave without being paid. Work or never work again. Yes, we made the choice. Some of us needed the money. But we were manipulated and coerced and even threatened. Some of us caught HIV as a result of that coercion. I personally caught Herpes, a non-curable sexually transmitted disease. Another porn actress went home after a long night of numbing her pain and put a pistol to her head and pulled the trigger. Now she's dead.
It's safe to say most women who turn to porn acting as a money-making enterprise, probably didn't grow up in healthy childhoods either. Indeed, many actresses admit they've experienced sexual abuse, physical abuse, verbal abuse and neglect by parents. Some were raped by relatives and molested by neighbors. When we were little girls we wanted to play with dollies and be mommies, not have big scary men get on top of us. So we were taught at a young age that sex made us valuable. The same horrible violations we experienced then, we relive as we perform our tricks in front of the camera. And we hate every minute of it. We're traumatized little girls living on anti-depressants, drugs and alcohol acting out our pain in front of you who continue to abuse us.
As we continue to traumatize ourselves by making more adult films, we use more and more drugs and alcohol. We live in constant fear of catching AIDS and sexually transmitted diseases. Every time there's an HIV scare we race to the nearest clinic for an emergency checkup. Pornographers insist on giving viewers the fantasy sex they demand all the while sacrificing the very ones who make it happen. In other words, no condoms allowed. Herpes, gonorrhea, syphilis, chlamydia, and other diseases are the normal anxieties we walk around with daily. We get tested monthly but we know testing isn't prevention. Besides worrying about catching diseases from porn sex, there are other harmful activities we engage in that are also very dangerous. Some of us have had physical tearing and damage to internal body parts.
When porn actresses call it a day and head home we attempt to have normal healthy relationships, but some of our boyfriends get jealous and physically abuse us. So instead we marry our porn directors, while others prefer lesbian relationships. It's a real memory making moment when our daughter accidentally walks out and sees mommy kissing another girl. My daughter will vouch for that one.
On our days off we walk around like zombies with a beer in one hand and a shot of whiskey in the other. We aren't up to cleaning so we live in filth most of the time, or we hire a sweet foreign lady to come in and clean up our mess. Porn actresses aren't the best cooks either. Ordering in is normal for us and most of the time we throw up after we eat because we're bulimic.
For porn actresses who have children, we are the world's worst mothers. We yell and scream and hit our kids for no reason. Most of the time we are intoxicated or high, and our four year olds are the ones picking us up off the floor. When clients come over for sex, we lock our children in their rooms and tell them to be quiet. I used to give my daughter a beeper and tell her to wait at the park until I was finished.
The truth is there is no fantasy in porn. It's all a lie. A closer look into the scenes of a porn star's life will show you a movie that the porn industry doesn't want you to see. The real truth is we porn actresses want to end the shame and trauma of our lives but we can't do it alone. We need you men to fight for our freedom and give us back our honor. We need you to hold us in your strong arms while we sob tears over our deep wounds and begin to heal. We want you throw out our movies and help piece together the shattered fragments of our lives. We need you to pray for us so God will hear and repair our ruined lives.
So don't believe the lie anymore. Porn is nothing more than fake sex and lies on videotape. Trust me, I know.

Boofuckinhoo on her.

She chose her own road and now she's blaming everybody else except herself?

That's called an inability to take responsibility.

Had she just stuck to the dangers of irresponsible sex and drugs and alcohol she would have had an argument, but instead it's 'them' 'they' shit.

It reminds me of society in general. Women have the right to choose. That was hard fought for. Anyone old enough to remember the women's lib movement? Well, women started choosing alright and started choosing all the WRONG guys to date and marry and look at our divorce rate now.

Me and the boys used to laugh at how so many girls in high school and college would go out of their way to be with the worst evil piece of shit scumbags on the campuses. As long as the guy looked like some guy on tv or in the movies or in those dime store romance novels the women went for him. Now they all look like the centerfolds to 'Hammered Shit' magazine.

She fucked up, she was fucked over, her bio says she was kicked out of her own family's house for rebellious attitudes so that was the start of her downfall. No one got rebellious on her behalf. No one gave her a rebellious pill.

I'm sure there's more to the backstory on this but for now, don't cry about the shit you stepped in, nature made it smell that way for a reason.

Damn attractive lady. But her experience in porn isn't everyone's experience in porn. She made bad choices and has to live with them. Doesn't mean the entire industry is bad.As in EVERY industry there are bad people but just beause she made choices she regrets and met people that might have been the bad side of the industry dosn't mean it's all that way.

From Wiki:

grew up in southern California and was kicked out of house by parents for teenage rebellion which led her to the streets where she became a prostitute for six years and then entered the porn industry in 1993 and 1994. She contracted genital herpes, an STD, and quietly left the porn industry.


Classic case of "mad at mom & Dad, Gonna show them."
At least she didn't get a gun and go postal.

And her point is????

Many of us have had majorly fucked up childhoods, but we all make choices. I've had many an adventure dealing with pornstars and many of them truly love fucking on film, don't drink, smoke or do drugs, and can carry on a semi normal life, treating porn as a job. I've also had the extreme flip side where I've had pornstars steal from me, ruin stuff and trash my house, and acting like true uneducated whores. Everyone has choices. I'm glad she's found God, but until she takes responsibility for her own actions, religion won't be able to fix her life.
