An anecdotal interview with a single transsexual is your proof? How would that evidence hold up under any other subject you debate?
"But but /pol/ said so!!"
Its sex industry work.
Its a taboo industry in general. That tends to be the case
It's not "you all". It's basically Cad, and now Abefroman. That's it. You're not being persecuted.
No one said anything about being persecuted and its actually Soy, Cad, Abe, and now you.
Near as I can tell, Cad hasn't taken any sort of position one way or another.
So fucking what?
No one has lost their mind, its just a stupid conversation I thought this shit was common knowledge, when I made the post I didn't expect Cad to leap in here and start demanding fucking citations for what is generally, from what I understand, common knowledge in the industry.
I wasn't looking for an argument when I made my initial post in the first fucking place.
trannies are dudes,dudes get paid less in porn, so why would putting on a dress make any difference?
The way the industry works is not the way we work out here in the real world.
If you present as a female in the porn industry, and do female roles, you get paid comparable female wages.
I'm honestly just curious and for something that is common knowledge, I cant find one fucking link that compares the two.
That's the thing. The only thing anyone has to go on is what the porn stars themselves report. There haven't been any major studies done on the subject that I'm aware of.
Tranny porn stars say they make wages comparable to females in the industry.
The only thing we can look at is the pay rates for females. They tend to get like 1000 bucks a shoot with a dude, they charge like an extra 100 bucks per guy, anal nets another 300 or some odd, etc. Less if they're new or amateurs, more if they're popular, well known, etc.
Shemales in the industry are treated like females, so that's probably why its hard to find anything specific about shemales. They're lumped in with the female rates.
