    What relevancy does that have to me doing porn? I haven't even started and I seem to have a following already.

    Are you going to have a pornstar name? 1ZRed isn't catchy enough.

    May I suggest: Tiny McStuffin-Ladds? (double barrel....classy)

    Judging by his stats "Pencil Dick" seems appropriate.

    No it's not and I'm under a heap of pressure from all directions and I want to secure my future for myself.
    And I would sooner do porn full time than become a rentboy. Even though I could because I wake up with 3 or four messages from guys wanting to have sex pretty much daily. so it's not a case of slow business because the demand is there and they're on the hook if I want to bite. But that's disgusting.
    This will prob just be a temporary thing for a year or less depending on how I fair. I might not even make it passed a solo. But if it gets me through college when those grants and links have failed me then yes, it's something to consider.

    I'm not even going to fight with you about the barebacking thing because I'm too tired for it.

    I didn't like how people were treating you in these threads, but I've given you good advice on things you could do instead & you completely ignored it. Pedant is trying to give you good advice too but you clearly don't want good advice. You seem to want people to just feel sorry for you.

    If you wanted help with college, you could get it. If you wanted help with your self destructive behaviours you could get that too. You're looking at doing something that will probably ruin the rest of your life, your future relationships and career prospects.

    He's just looking for attention

    Have seen a few of your posts OP and you're a naive and sensitive soul

    You saw nothing wrong with leaping behind a bar counter and stealing. Could not understand why posters were pointing out what you did.
    You're lucky you didn't get a hammering from bouncers or the staff!


    But then got mighty upset as local lads gave you abuse that night, what were you expecting?



    You want to put yourself in front of a camera yet get upset in your local pub

    Look OP, I know EXACTLY what you're going through. I'm an unemployed student too and looking for work during the summer but I can't find any. I'm not contemplating going into porn though and I would never. I'm also gay and not out yet, so I now what it's like too. But OP, you have to stop thinking the way your thinking, things will pull through eventually. I just honestly think, from reading a lot of your other posts, that you've a lot on your plate at the minute, both emotionally and with college, and it looks like you have to deal with it all by yourself. We're only human, 1ZRed, and sometimes we need help. I think you need some counselling to help you through. Maybe if you want to talk, PM me if you want.

    Keep away from both porn and being a rentboy. They're both disgusting. Doing porn is only advertisement for escorts, lots of pornstars nowadays are doing to escorting because tube sites have taken off on the internet in recent years making porn freely available. Even if you only do one video it could effect your longterm employment prospects in the future if someone happens to fall upon the video.

    Escorting is, as you rightly say, disgusting and will lead you down all sorts of dangerous roads so stay clear of it.

    OP, it doesn't matter if it's only one video you do, if it goes viral you're fucked because it could effect your career prospect if a potential employer finds out you were doing porn they wouldn't hire you.

    I not going to fight with you about it either but you have to understand that it's very hazardous. Don't mind what guys tell you about it on those dating sites, they're just looking for a good time and they'll probably end up fucked because of what they're doing. All I can tell you is stop it before it's too late. You can't trust anyone.

    I think it's very easy to brush it off as him just looking for attention. From reading a lot of his posted I think what he's going through is something little a deeper than that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,036 ✭✭✭cocoshovel


    Well OP, if you go through with it be sure not to lie about it if you ever decide to give blood.

    Oh god thats disgusting. This is from the same guy who posted the thread "should I get the Hep C vaccination", and said things like "I would date a guy with HIV".

    So dramtic these teenagers...

    Getting a Hep A/B vaccine is very common actually. You have to get it when you go on holidays to some countries where there's a poor water supply and lots of people get it done when they do an STI test, not because they had it but for added protection in the future. There's nothing wrong with that and it's very much common practice.

    As for his idea of dating someone with HIV, firstly he didn't suggest that he has and secondly if he doesn't have unprotected sex his chances of getting HIV are decrease. Personally I'm personally very much again dating someone with HIV (as I displayed on a recent thread on the LGBT forum), but I honestly think he meant any harm when he said that. Obviously, no-one who's had sex (either protected or unprotected) with someone with HIV should donate blood to be absolutely safe.

    As for lying to donate blood, he was referring to the gay blood ban. If you're a man who's had sex with another man (even if you use protection and it was only oral) you are not allowed to donate blood. This rule does not apply to men who only have sex with the opposite sex, even if they've had unprotected sex in the past. So the rule is illogical, very much discriminatory and reduces the supply of healthy blood. The gay blood ban is a remnant of the days when people didn't understand HIV/AIDS (some even thought it only effected gay men) and doesn't make since in this day and age when HIV/AIDS effects both straight and gay people almost in equal proportion. The gay blood ban has already been removed in some countries including the UK. If the OP donated blood, the blood is still tested for any infection before it does into generally circulation then it's okay.

    I said I haven't barebacked and I never would with hook ups. I'm not stupid. That said I eventually will end up doing it with a boyfriend when we're in a healthy monogamous relationship at some point. There's nothing wrong with that and loads of guys do it and I understand why because it's a close thing emotionally and physically to do in a relationship. Until then, I'm gonna keep wrapping it up.
    Like I said I don't want to fight for once. Thanks for the advice though.

    If you read my post properly I said I would be cautious and ill at ease with the whole situation. But if I got to know him, like and could trust him, and if all necessary precautions were taken, yes I would consider dating someone who was HIV possive. They're not disgusting. They're people themselves and they are not all drug addicts, bed hoppers and bug chasers. They might have contracted the virus in ways beyond drugs and sex so I think that's a really harsh and elitist attitude to have on someone with a fairly serious disease.
    Would you say the same about somebody with cancer?


    Anyway, I appreciate the advice and help some of you have given me but I think
    I'm just done with this site for a while.

    I had empathy for you in your last thread Op but this idea of doing porn at 18 is pretty retarded. There must be an easier way to make money than being plowed out of it by some Alaskan hunters knob.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,300 ✭✭✭HazDanz


    I feel so stupid.
    I couldnt afford college either. But instead of bringing my double d's and long blonde locks onto the porn scene I took out a loan.

    And to think I could have herpes right now. I really missed out.

    You did. "The egg" or lack of it is really on your face.

    Yeah you're probably right I'm just annoyed for a few reasons but I can understand where some people are coming from.

    Anyway the guy just text me so I'll get back talking to him again and see how things go. Don't worry I get your concerns though.

    Dude in all seriousness, just do what ye wanna do, if it makes you happy, or it's an experience you wanna have then go for it ..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,166 ✭✭✭Cheeky_gal


    I feel so sorry for you OP :(

    Don't mind the people in After Hours, majority of them think posting a comment which rips the p*ss out of the OP will get them thanks... And sadly it does. Just goes to show what sad cases they are though abusing someone on an Internet forum.

    You should go to the Personal Issues thread, people are lovely there. :)

    Listen, best of luck with whatever you do but i dont know if its the best idea. You will always have to live with this, every time you go for a job, every new relationship, thinking what if it comes back to bite me.

    Although Im sure you've thought it through, just dont be too hasty. Pendant seems to be giving really good advice, dont mind the jokes, you have to understand its a funny thread in one way! But I hope you do what ever suits you best.

    Such a compassionate person aren't you? Maybe he's very down, how do you know he's taking the p*ss? It doesn't seem like he is..

    Are you for real? It's an obvious wind up.
    If he was really down I doubt he'd be posting measurements of his cock on a forum that is renowned for taking the piss.

    From what the OP has posted, not all in the most revealing of cases, I am lead to believe that a lot of what the OP is saying in not merely taking the piss. I don't think I can say any further than that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 174 ✭✭croker1


    Go for it. Pack that fudge my friend.

    Btw, best of luck in your first year exams when you make enough money to go to college, I think you'll need it

    I'd be confident he's not taking the piss. The measurements of his cock is very relevant to the thread and his potential as a porn actor.

    Look at the thread ffs :D

    I bet you still believe in Santa!

    Porn stars get paid fcuk all these days.

    Theres was a programme about the industry on Channel 4 last month with Louis Theriox,about the decline of the porn industry due to the internet and that porn stars now get paid "fcuk all" (excuse the pun).

    Most porn stars now do escorting and are hookers,are theres more money it for them these days.

    Another thing is that "AIDS" is supposed to be fairly rampant in the industry too.

    What's so unbelievable about someone pursuing porn? I don't think you believe that you've come across somebody that would try it. Possibly. I had my reasons, I stated them and all I wanted was advice on the consequences of doing so. I got them, for the most part.

    I don't know if some of you are taking a hit at the fact that I'm capable of doing it and someone said I tick all the boxes in order to do it. Not every guy can.
    Is that what's getting you down?

    So have you applied to do some gay porn in the uk ? or the states ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,293 ✭✭✭1ZRed

    Only in the UK. America I totally out of the picture but you can still do very well in England because there are massive studios there too.

    Most are based in London but there are a few outside the capital but then, those are more amateur.
