by Alex Foxe and Jacklyn Lick, courtesy of
STORM.
This page is a work in progress. Please continue to check
back for more additions. STORM is committed to providing
pragmatic harm reduction resources and options to our
clients and website viewers. Our goal is to reduce the
risks faced by sex workers by providing information from sex
workers and know practical steps to stay safe.
-
If you have never heard of the company call someone
you know in the business and ask about them.
-
If it doesn't feel right don't do it. The money is
never worth it in the long run.
-
If you are in pain stop the scene! Take the director
off the set and tell him/her what is wrong.
-
If a body part on the person you are working with
doesn't look or smell right! Stop the scene. You're
health and well being is the most important factor.
-
Talk with whom you are working with before you work
with them. Tell them what you like and don't like.
If during the scene they don't respect your wish's
stop the scene and remind the actor of your like and
dislikes.
If someone is going to become a porn actress what should
they expect? Things to watch out for?
-
There are sharks out there! Protect yourself,
because no one else will. Although they may reassure
you that they are looking out for your well being,
Remember that in reality they are only looking out
for themselves.
-
Prepare yourselves for hidden costs. The up-keep is
expensive.
-
It's very hard to be in a healthy relationship.
Although it's possible, it is improbable.
-
Your family is likely to find out! Even if they
live in small town America. With the Internet here
to stay, porn is universal. It is everywhere.
-
Fear that your past will come back to haunt you.
This is not to sound dramatic. It is very real. The
tapes you have made are forever.
-
Your social life is affected. You live with the fear
of being judged for your past in your present life.
-
First off, don't do anything in porn that you
wouldn't do in your own bedroom.
-
Always use your instincts when accepting scenes.
If you don't feel right about it, don't do it.
-
Also, I always recommend using condoms. Though some
companies don't support that, try working with the
companies that do.
-
Don't do anything you will hope and pray no one ever
sees.
