  • Are black females turning away from Black porn? 5/31/2015 5:36:58 PM
    realtip wrote: What I've noticed is that there is almost no black-on-black porn being produced anymore, period. Yeah, Lex has a series that's focused only on black girls, and I think there a couple of other black directors who have similar lines. But usually, if you see a black performer- male or female- in a scene, then it will most likely be an IR scene. Black male performers are mostly cast to be in scenes with white women because that's what the industry has determined is popular. Likewise, on the occasions when black women are cast to be in scenes, they are usually paired up with white guys. Apparently, the porn industry has decided that no one wants to see black people fucking other black people. So everything is IR now. And Yes, you...

Yes, you've stated your case. And I've refuted it. So yeah... no need for you to state it again. You havent actually "refuted" anything, just proclaimed it so, hilariously, I might add. Affirmative Action is of course a "concept", but its a policy instituted by the government. Can't even see how that's debatable, so I won't waste any more time on that either. You brought up the government bullshit, not me. I was referencing the concept so if you can't differentiate between the two, that's not my problem, its yours.

    ^I have already stated my case on how the male performer is not just a commodity. I dont feel the need to state it again, so I won't. Affirmative Action is of course a "concept", but its a policy instituted by the government. Can't even see how that's debatable, so I won't waste any more time on that either. This concept means nothing if its not enforced by an institution of authority. No such thing exists over the Adult Film Industry. You questioned me with a condescending "Can I read...." Well of course, once you inserted AA into the discussion, I predicted you would drag the conversation down to lower depths with a hint of arrogance. No surprise there, I saw it coming a mile away. Black male performers exploring the p...

    ^^Most consumers aren't willing to pay more PERIOD if they don't have to, that includes paying the white female performers more for their "First IR". So that is an irrelevant point. However when faced with a choice of a product not being available AT ALL or paying more, most will choose to pay more. That's common sense. 2nd Affirmative Action was/is a government program intent on correcting unfair hiring practices based on race that were in place for decades in the U.S. How does that apply here, I have no idea. You keep trying to assert that the male performers are little more than essentially flesh and blood moving dildos, which really isnt the case at all. The quality of the product is based on capabilities and talent of the guy...

    ^affirmative action? lol that came out of nowhere, and a really peculiar thing to say I already explained why black male performers can negotiate receiving more pay and be justified in doing so. If a first time IR scene is going to depicted as a special event then there is a demand for it. Therefore the female performers are going to want to work with the most well known and reliable male performers, to create the BEST product. And that's WHERE their leverage comes in. There's nothing more fair than trying to maximize their earning potential based on what they bring to the table. Black males in the adult industry are in a unique position. More often than not they're at a disadvantage (most certainly not fair), however in this situation the...

    murdock wrote: ^ Faceless cock doesn't mean that anyone could do it. I qualified my statement already by saying that most people generally don't care they're distractingly bad, which does eliminate a significant portion of the populace. That said, you can read the threads here and see countless people champing at the bit for a particular starlet to shoot an interracial scene. Only a small fraction actually cares who the male talent is, and most of those seem less concerned with who it is and more concerned about isn't in the scene. (See: they're distractingly bad) Point being, most people don't care who the male talent is. (outside of their own "this guy sucks" list) If a particular performer can command a higher rate I'm all for...

    ^Yes I would. And I disagree that the male talent is just a faceless cock or else there would be hundreds of black male talent in the industry alone. The fact is, there are only about 10-15 black guys that get the majority of the work. About 5 of them maybe get their own titles. There's obviously a reason for that. If I decide to buy an "IR First", I am conceding I'm willing to pay a premium price for the product, whether I know if the female performer was paid more or not. I don't want to pay more just because I think its "swell". I'm willing to pay more if the male talent decides in an industry where his potential to earn is less simply because he isnt the right race, decides to take advantage of one of the few levera...

The problem for them is the big studios have money and distribution for now anyway that gives them leverage. If someone came up with a new way to finance movies it would change everything. Basically thinking outside the box is what's needed. Exactly, if IR porn is such a hot commodity, and "Waiting to Shoot IR for Bigger Pay Day" is so financially successfully why can't black male talent make a few extra bucks for these scenes? If the top 10-15 guys say,"Hey pay me more as well or get someone else". Its a sound strategy. Not boycotting, or trying to get performers who don't want to do IR to for whatever reason acquies...

    fredgee wrote: ^^ I would assume he pays them by the acts they perform, a actress doing her first ir she would make more money. If this true, the performer she works with would be of considerable importance. Which goes back to my original question, why don't the black performers as a collective demand more pay as well?
  • Waiting to Shoot IR for a Bigger Pay Day 5/25/2015 8:33:02 PM
    ^^ OK I understand that. And I assume Lex doesn't pay the performers of Breast Fest more than he pays the ones in Black Panthers. Or does he?

Or at least charge more for the shoots of the white female performers holding out to increase their rate for IR. It seems like they are missing out of a great business opportunity for themselves. How do you know they don't? Perhaps not all black guys for every IR scene but I find it hard to believe that when someone like JULES JORDAN creates a line of movies built around Lex or Mandingo they don't get more money for it. I'm not proclaiming to KNOW anything. But the title of the thread suggest something that is a common practice. Do you know that Lex gets paid more for the Breast Fest series since so far it has only featured wh...

Unfortunately, I doubt they are in a position to turn down work if the industry is in bad a shape as everyone claims. If one black guy says no, I want more money, they can just get another black guy. I understand its something they would probably have to do has a collective. Like if the top 10-15 guys say no, pay us more also. Then the performer holding out would have to work with lesser talent. Of course the top guys would have ...
