Hi ishy, Certainly we can agree to disagree on the minor points; I think there will always be a market for very inexpensive call girls, and a market for very inexpensive girls. I just believe that with the advertising available to sex workers today, it's easier than ever for clients to pick and choose a girl who suits his budget and taste. With legalization, comes legitimization of the advertising systems, and more cutting out of the middle man (bookers, agents, etc.) From my experience, even if a girl shows up on set for a shoot with her makeup and wardrobe already done, there's still a good amount of time spent dealing with paperwork, setting scene, making decisions about how the shoot will go. Whenever bondage is tossed into the mix, nearly a third of the shoot is spent just doing rigging; the actual time having sex on video (for an amateur production like he's describing) you're likely to only have 30-50 minutes of actual intercourse, resulting in 20-30 minutes of footage. Obviously, the circumstances vary widely, from producer to producer. In my experience, it's actually quite difficult to get into porn for an average girl. Getting one or two gigs for very low pay is easy; getting reliable gigs with established producers, especially in our current economic market, is nothing short of daunting. Charlotte and I had incredible luck in the few people we met early on. Unless one is willing to move to Los Angeles or Miami and contract an established agent, it really is not easy for a typical girl to get started. For good or ill, the current porn market is a producer's market; many girls have taken 30-40% pay cuts on their normal rates, just to keep working. Just some food for thought. Not saying that Alex Tully is legit or not; he looks like your typical 'guy with camera.' Sometimes they're decent, sometimes they're creepy, sometimes they're boring. It's up to the model to decide if the potential risk is offset by the potential pay off. Oh, and thank you for the compliments :) Stephan
