Why would he need to pay them ? An audition is never a paid performance. At least he didn’t CHARGE them for putting together a “portfolio” the way some photographers do for models. Had he just sent their audition tapes and info to a variety of genuine porn producers, even if he never got them work, the police wouldn’t be able to prosecute him for anything.

Whores get paid. Having sex for free isn’t what they do. In fact, their union has been trying to outlaw “amateurs” from having sex for free with boyfriends and husbands.

I always heard prostitutes didn't get paid for sex, they got paid for leaving afterword.

She didn’t know she was being raped until she realized there were no cameras.

"They're hidden, sweetheart, so they won't be a distraction or show up in any scenes. See that mirror I hung over the bed? Guess what's behind there?"

You know, with unemployment the way it is, I salute this fellow's entreprenuership. And he's probably got ObamaCare too. This is the sort of people Nancy Pelosi was talking about who are free to pursue their dreams rather than being tied down to an 8-5 job just to get health insurance.

All the models either agree or disagree. If they disagree they are usually free to leave under the auspice there will be no job. [...] Howver, this could lead to the same auspices of sexual harassment one would find if they were to work for a company like Amazon.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. - Princess Bride

auspices noun [ plural ] uk ​ /ˈɔː.spɪ.sɪz/ us ​ /ˈɑː.spɪ.sɪz/ formal under the auspices of sb/sth ​ with the protection or support of someone or something, especially an organization: Financial aid is being provided to the country under the auspices of the International Monetary Fund.

Thanks for sharing this. It looks very promising , like a great business plan. My first pretty young models arrive at 8:30 and I’ve got the “casting couch” ready for them. Thanks for explaining How To Do It.

Nope, its the sex, no matter what they say or write in the “afterword”. The smart ones got paid first, so what happens after is unimportant.

This does seem to take advantage of people.

On the other hand, if you are a girl, and you have decided to consider doing x-rated movies, you can’t be surprised that the guy there wants to film sexual activity.

So even an audition situation, the girls, if they have an ounce of brains, can’t be surprised to be asked to strip. And more.

The sad thing, if you think about it, is that these girls are filmed doing all this, and will end up in the internet pornography world, but not being paid for having done what they did.

Not sure where you got your definition but from Meriam Webster: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/auspice Definition of auspice plural auspices play \-pə-səz, -ˌsēz\ 1 : observation by an augur especially of the flight and feeding of birds to discover omens 2 plural : kindly patronage and guidance 3 : a prophetic sign; especially : a favorable sign In each case of the word, you could substitute guidance and still be correct in the usage.

Your original posting was:

So let's substitute "guidance," as you proposed:

All the models either agree or disagree. If they disagree they are usually free to leave under the guidance there will be no job. [...] Howver, this could lead to the same guidances of sexual harassment one would find if they were to work for a company like Amazon.

Nope, still doesn't make much sense.

Auspice is used correctly in either case. If you have a problem with it, don’t read it. Apparently, you have no idea what you are going on and on about.

Okay lets do this: Your definition not mine: auspices noun [ plural ] uk ​ /ˈɔː.spɪ.sɪz/ us ​ /ˈɑː.spɪ.sɪz/ formal under the auspices of sb/sth ​ with the protection or support of someone or something, especially an organization: Financial aid is being provided to the country under the auspices of the International Monetary Fund. Your definition clearly states: with the protection or support of someone or something, especially an organization: I wrote for my first usage of the word: "If they disagree they are usually free to leave under the auspice there will be no job." The word usage in this sentence is correctly used per your definition because the individual would leave the interview without the "support" of the interviewing organization. This case is clearly defined in the definition you provided: auspices noun [ plural ] uk ​ /ˈɔː.spɪ.sɪz/ us ​ /ˈɑː.spɪ.sɪz/ formal under the auspices of sb/sth ​ with the protection or support of someone or something, especially an organization: Financial aid is being provided to the country under the auspices of the International Monetary Fund. The second usage of the word auspices is again used correctly. However in this case the definition is regarding "protection". Your definition as provided: auspices noun [ plural ] uk ​ /ˈɔː.spɪ.sɪz/ us ​ /ˈɑː.spɪ.sɪz/ formal under the auspices of sb/sth ​ with the protection or support of someone or something, especially an organization: Financial aid is being provided to the country under the auspices of the International Monetary Fund. again, shows this to be the correct use. Here the protection is that of sexual harassment laws. So please, read what youo post trying to correct other people. I am well aware of the usage of the word auspice and I am well aware of how I used it. You should go after people who use quite as quiet rather than something you don't know what you are talking about.
