I want out of PORN!
I think its not healthy doing it for to long & need to change my life drastically. Been doing this 10 years and im 39 now. I have a diploma in Hotel Bar management and worked in several hotels before doing this Adult stuff. I've made good income but now its time for a change... im not happy with my life... I like to get a respectable job where I dont need to hide to my family & friends what I really do for a living. PORN is not something to be proud of.
you guys have any Idea what route should I take? pls be nice hehehe;) Im sure allot of people are in the same shoes like me. thx for reading. |

says who? society? you yourself?
society is made up of 95% hypocrites when it comes to sex and porn. i'm not terribly proud of it but i'm not unproud of it either. when i do a good job of something I feel good, whether it's cleaning a toilet or making a webpage.

A nice chunk of hotel revenue comes from in-room porn movie rentals.
Escorts turn tricks in hotels, and porn is filmed in hotel rooms sometimes too. Maybe work for an industry that will give you more respect... like Big Oil, Tobacco, Liquor, Gun Sales, or Big Pharma. Just kidding dude - good luck with whatever path you choose! |

Yeah probably better to take care of Hotels... Only have to deal with smelly hookers being brought in, drunks at the bar, drugs in the room, late parties, cleaning ladies stealing, people that stay stealing, late night complaints about pubes in the bed. Totally respectable job though, I would go for it!

You are ashamed of what you do, which is to promote sites which cater to the perfectly natural desires of almost everyone. You remind me the Rabbi in the next town over who bangs his head on the Torah for like five hours a day for a week after he gets laid by his own wife. There is NOTHING wrong with Adult marketing, Fuck; just tell'em that you do IT and explanations would bore them to death if you have to tell them anything and why do YOU owe THEM an explantion anyway? You got a GUILT issue? Sex dirty to you? Man, I'm sorry for your because you have an obvious guilt issue connected with what you have been doing, most lilkely from the Judeo/Christian/Muslim "Guilt Complex" and unless you get rid of it and free your mind, you are indeed stuck. My advice to you is that unless you can get over it, you need to get out but I think that would be a shame. Sally. |

I would never do a job I didn't like. Economy is lousy for bars and restaurants right now. Good luck. Try taking your job and doing it in the mainstream world. If ur a webmaster there are plenty of non-adult websites. If your a photographer I make great money on the side working at the wineries and vineyards in my area (I hate weddings). Put on your thinking cap instead of giving up. Get on it Bubba!

Here is my advice and it may not be worth much, but it is how I believe. Decide what you are passionate about and pursue that. Do that while you are still in porn and see if there is a way for you make a living doing what you are passionate about. Since you will still have income you won't be pressured for money and you can take your time and find the right situation.
If you find you can make a living doing whatever this is you will be ten times happier than you are now because you will be making money and doing something you love. If you just get another job chances are eventually you will burn out on it and feel the same way you do now about porn. Someone once told me, "Do what you love and the money will follow." |

I have been in the industry since 97 and am about your age. I agree with you its not really something I want to be doing much longer. I got out for a while then got back in. The industry isn't what it used to be either. Alot more out there willing to stab each other in the back. Firget about what you think about porn and its morality. It's more the backstabbing/shaving etc etc that goes on. It is getting tougher to make a buck in the adult industry and that is making us all meaner! People I used to deal with in the past I dont even want to talk to anymore on this forum. Not because of what they have done/said to me personally but because of stuff they say to others here. After so many years in this industry I dont think you can help but become jaded.

I think porn is going to stay no matter what happens. Lock yourself into a replacement job first before doing anything drastic. That's my 2 cents worth. Take care.

Do what you think right for yourself and makes feel good.
If you are not proud of your porn business, get a job, at a once.

PORN was good enough to feed you and your family for years. it depends on what you´ve done in porn . if you have worked with good programs and have promoted legal porn then it is O.K. . but if you have pushed animal porn or somthing like that...yeah,then you are right, you can´t be proud! anyway,i don´t have a bad taste to speak about what i am doing. my family knows it,my friends knows it,they respect what i am doing and some of them want to be involved. everybody is watching porn,the whole world does and somebody has to produce and market it. i do understand your wish for change,that´s ok. good luck Pornjudge. |

You shouldent have to hide the fact that u work in porn from your family I told my family when I first started and they are fine with it.
I would go for what u already know and have experience in specially in the current job climate |

My life has improved drastically since I got into the porn biz. Lots of ups and just as many downs but overall the quality of life has been a lot better. I am proud of what I do. Not only do I find it respectable I think it is necessary. If I am very lucky I will be doing this for many many years to come.
If you feel shame in what your doing or feel it is beneath you then yeah, move on. But try and take away positive feelings from what you have done |

Everyone "hides" what they do to a certain extent. It's not like my neighbors are walking around going, "Hi, I'm an insurance salesman!" "Hi, I work in a boring office cubicle!" "Hi, I mop floors at Safeway!" "Hi, I'm unemployed!"
Does anyone? Where are all these people walking around with "respectable" jobs? Most people hate what they do. I know for me, it doesn't matter what I do, I'm not telling the fucking neighbors anyway. None of their damn business. As for family members? It's really none of their business either. I don't ask what they do. ![]()

Wow thank god I ain't ashamed! My family knows my neighbors knows my grandmother even knows! The one thing I didn't like was shooting porn myself but that is because of my kids it was hard to get someone to watch them etc.. Now my health is shit *cancer* I don't do my own sites anymore I work for Escortbiz which was the best thing that has happened to me in years! I love the sites he has, and love the work! Good luck but if you're ashamed of what you're doing there's always a church around the corner!

I kinda feel what you are saying. Everybody in my family knows what i do for a living execpt my young kids. My wife totally hates porn and it makes it almost impossible to talk about my workday with her. (how was your day, Not bad i couldnt get monster cocks and gapping assholes to convert the right way)
I have a lot of adult experience but it doesnt seem to mean anything when applying for a mainstream job. They dont want to see what sites youve worked for, or even know what nats are carma is. Most of the major companies dont even use php (at least the ones ive tried). I like porn personally but seeing it everyday makes it boring to me. Knowing I will more than likely never see anything new that excites me like before i entered this biz.

Depends how you phrase it. For example, I work in "online entertainment". I leave it up to the other party to draw conclusions. If they have dirty minds, they probably assume it's porn. Sick perverts!

here's what i would do if i were you-
1. get a VERY well-done resume written, a professional one, you can disguise your adult work by using generic terms highlighting your skill set and experience. shop your resume around online and also network with family and friends to see what's out there. 2. try and apply the skills and experience you gathered working in adult and apply it to a new business/product/service that combines your skills of hotel bar work and adult. good luck! |
