Sing, Muse, of your meteoric ascent from a seething pit of pure, all-American white trash.
Sing, also, of five-figure fees for one evening's striptease, and of six-figure film contracts for the company you built.
Sing of rape and addiction and suicide, of thieves and junkies and lies, of vodka, Vicodin, and crystal meth.
But most of all, sing of Sex.
The muse invoked here is, of course, porn goddess Jenna Jameson (formerly Massoli), the star of countless adult films, magazines, and strip clubs -- and CEO of ClubJenna Inc., her film production and online licensing company.
"How To Make Love Like A Porn Star" is her latest product, an autobiography in the form of a rant interspersed with detritus from her life's ricochets, including a sample adult film contract, entries from her diary, comics, and the sprawling transcript from a recent family reunion (which reads like a police blotter).
(snip)
Jameson now sits atop a multimedia company which sells hundreds of thousands of copies of films it produces and innumerable downloads of video clips. She manages over a dozen porn stars. Her club appearances earn her up to $25,000 per show.
And yes, she is married (to producer Jay Grdina) and looks forward to retirement and motherhood, now both comfortably within reach.
So sing, Muse, of a messed-up kid from a ditch on the wrong side of the tracks who climbed to the top of a $3 billion industry, using only the power of her ambition and body.
Sing, Muse, of the glory of America.

I like your style, bub!
I found the name of this funny: "How To Make Love Like A Porn Star" They don't make love they just f***
Not a trick question. My point is that "bad" activities, such as watching porn, drinking too much, gambling etc. can only effect kids if the kids are actually exposed to it. If mommy and daddy watch porn while the kids are asleep, occasionally get wasted at the country club and go to Vegas for gambling and lap dancing, they're not bad role models unless the kids know that they engage in these activities.

I guess it depends on where your treasure lies then...
But their activities are making them worse human being which the kids will most definitely notice. You can't be a good parent without being a good person.
Consumption of porn stimulates the selfish, infantile, sadistic side of your personality. Nothing good comes of that.
only one pic? - lame
I just don't think everything parents do needs to be G-rated.
We're sorry, your call did not go through...please hang up and try again....beep-beep-beep-beep-beep...
Gays don't watch the same porn as straight guys. The men in hetero porn are disgusting to look at and it's no wonder the women are paid so much, lol.
I don't know if it is the ego, or the ideas that what was once kinky is now average bedroom play. So a guy may feel that if he doesn't have ropes, whips and a bag of chickens, he is sexual bore. And a girl may feel like she is a prude if she honestly prefers her chickens from KFC with mashed potatoes.
Porn (and Jenna) twists something that is best at its simplest into an organic version of rat-on-acid origami.
I was always painfully aware of everything my parents did and tried to hide from me. I think kids know.
People who gamble, drink alcohol and watch porn cannot be good people? What else do you want to add to the list? Hunting? voting Democrat?
Consumption of porn stimulates the selfish, infantile, sadistic side of your personality. Nothing good comes of that.
Maybe for you, but most people can control their urges.
very surprising...200+ posts..only 2 pics...most of the guys must be at work..
Actually, nothing you could say would be relevant. These folks are adults. They enjoy a certain activity together. I do not understand the mindset that says people enjoying something and nobody's getting hurt while they do it is somehow wrong. You only live once, you might as well enjoy yourself.
The truth is the truth whether you like it or not.
What you put into your mind influences your character. Putting porn into your mind breeds selfishess and sadism. Watching gang rape as entertainment stimulates something that should not be stimulated. So a husband who is consuming porn regularly will become less and less a good husband as his character deteriorates.
Didn't I date you in college?
"My dream guy is someone who doesn't think 'foreplay' is latin for 'one minute'.
Can we factor in the dinner and drive over?"
LOL! You're too much. :)
The reason the men in hetero porn are so nasty is because they are trying to approximate the looks of the average viewer. This way, your average Joe Schmo can more easily picture themselves in that very situstion.
LOL.
He does sound familiar, doesn't he?
This comment hits home. Humbly speaking, I look like a younger identical twin to the male porn star "Peter North" with and without clothes. When I see him on screen it's borderline creepy. I've been asked for autographs, I've had guys take pictures of their girlfriends with me. It's quite funny, and of course I play it up and never actually let on that I'm not him.
My own girlfriends constantly ask me why I don't "do porn." I would never do the job for a living. It's a little too sleazy to have an ordinary life. My regular life has been quite enjoyable.
