Reading about a second-hand account of a sex-showgirl's experience in
alt.sex was interesting, but howabout my slightly different, first-hand 
account as a San Francisco jack-off boy and porn-film star.  Manually
cross-posted to alt.sex.motss.

In early 1991, Bush was riding high, out to prove his manhood in Iraq,
obviously a tactic to divert attention away from the floundering economy.
He couldn't divert my attentions away from it because I had just been laid
off my C/UNIX contract when the company I was contracted out to 'downsized'
by 25%.  

At first, it was fun--going from a modest (for a contractor) income to
the maximum possible unemployment benefit in California ($840/mo for doing
NOTHING!) with all of this time on my hands an what seemed like a riot-a-day 
during the anti-war demonstrations.  But towards the end of the summer, a 
cold, cloudy summer not fit for beach activities, my unemployment insurance 
began to trickle down to the last few weeks, and no software prospects on the
horizon, I decided that I had to do something for money.

That something was not going to be flipping burgers or temping in an office
8 hours a day--I needed some flexibility to be able to go on interviews
to do the work that I enjoyed most--software development.  

I had eyed an ad in the SF Weekly free paper asking for "Hot Guys" age
18-30 to star in porn films.  So, before an ACTUP meeting, I skated up
to this guy's house, a little nervous because I was 28 (pushing it) and
am balding, and I had shaved my head completely to compensate.

I got there, and he had me fill out an intake form, measuring me for
potential wardrobe and stuff.  There were boxes to fill out for what
you were into, different races of people, top/bottom, rimming, sucking,
getting sucked, etc.  He had me get a hard-on and took a polaroid of
me and attached it to the intake sheet and said he'd call me that weekend.

The call came, and I went to this house near the projects and Japan town.
There was this o.k. looking guy there, and he was to be my costar.  The
story line for this one was Drafted, and we had to make up some phony
dialog (2-3 lines) that would lead seamlessly to a kiss and on to 
the fucking.  It was kinda wierd doing it in front of cameras and lights, 
but there were only two other people there besides the two stars (and they
weren't trolls), so it wasn't like there was a room full of people staring
and getting off on us.

The way it would work is we would divide it into two stages, pre-fuck and
fuck.  During the pre-fuck, we would do various foreplay and sucking activities
for about 5 minutes per position, very mechanical.  I had a hard time keeping
it up at first, especially nervous and standing up.  My cock is about 8"
and when fully erect it comes up to my belly and when I stand (I have
suspensory ligiments of the gods) it slaps up to my belly and points straight
up to the sky, so when I get a half-hardon, it (to me at least) is very
noticable since it points in front of me (90 degrees) or even dangles and I 
get into a anxiety cycle which can be difficult to pull out of.  

As I came to realize, the physical characteristics as well as the technique 
of my costar were important in the ability to keep it up.  The whole affair
would usually take about 2-3 hours, depending.  I would eat minimally that
day so I wasn't carrying around any extra weight and my washboard abdominals
wouldn't have any baggage, and get a bag of fresh apricots so I had some
sugar and liquid to burn in the hot lights.

You do it in some of the most unthinkable yet photogenic positions possible
just so the penetration is clearly visible.  Unfortunately, this can put
pressure on your prostate in new, uncontrollable ways.  The first scene
ended with me sitting on a comfy chair, slouched down, and my costar,
back to me, impaled on my cock, both of us facing the camera.  The 
site of penetration was quite visible (including the condom--we are homosexual,
not homocidal) and the extra weight pushed heavy on my prostate.  So 
heavy, that in my first scene, I broke one of the ten commandments of
porno--On one particularly muscular thrust, I lost it and came inside him.

One of the things you do is build a load over the previous day or two or three
so when you shoot on video the arcing fountains hit the ceiling.  In sub-
sequent scenes, I got really good at doing just that--pulling out right at
the moment of ejaculation, whipping off the rubber, and spooging a momentous
load 6' or so right into the camera.  Usually they had MAXX condoms, my 
favorite latex brand, because they are big enough so they don't pinch, but
on one occasion the costar was so homely, my hard-on so tenuous and the condom 
so tight that I just threw a hissy fit, and refused to fuck him until they
got me the proper tools for my tool.  They didn't so we just jacked off.
It was the most horrible video I ever shot.  But for $200 for a coupla hours
work--thats 4 times more than I made at my highest paid contract.

I ended up making about 8 scenes over 2-3 months from July to September of
1991.  I'd say that 3 of them were really fun--good sex with people I would
get it on with anyway if I had half the chance (just thinking about this one
guy gets me hard even now).  1-2 were o.k. and 3 were just horrible.  I thought 
it might have been some kind of dating service where these guys paid to do 
porno with a real porn star.  Some of these guys were chubby and had 4-5" 
skinny cocks.  Who wants to see porno with gross people much less do it?  
Normal people, o.k. but yecchfest?

One other benefit was that they flew me down to LA to shoot a cover for one
of the videos, actually the one that just got me hard.  They paid for the
airfare and paid me $200.  My boyfriend (who just barely tolerated this whole
escapade, but didn't have to support me $$$) went down to LA with me, we 
went to West Hollywood to a photgrapher's loft did the shot and spent the
day in LA.  My only trip ever to LA was to fly down to do a photo shoot.
How fucking classic.

All good things must come to an end, and they guy who was coordinating the
SF filming was having tax problems or something, so he quit doing videos.
I thought I was up shit financial creek.  Then I read an ad in the Bay
Area Reporter, a gay paper in SF, calling for hot guys (again!) to 'dance'
for 30 minutes a day for at least $30 a day.  I called up, and it was the
Campus Theater, a seedy J/O theater in the Tenderloin, the scuzzyiest
ghetto in central SF.

I had to go to the amateur night, and compete with whoever else showed up
for audience applause kudos and a cash prize.  I went second-to-last.  I
went up on a stage with spotlights and a runway partially dressed, did a 
very quick strip tease, and began to jack off to this horrible disco music.
I do not know if it was the disco, the cold or the novelty of it, but Mr.
8" just wasn't into it--not even half hard.  Anyway, I managed to finish,
didn't win a prize, and when I was changing upstairs, the manager suprised
me and asked if I wanted a job.

I answered O.K., and came back the next day to start.  I didn't have to
pay to work.  There were three kinds of shows I could work.  The arena
show, which was downstairs in this pit-like theater, very 'intimate' with
chushioned benches on three sides.  I came down with my partner dressed in
something skimpy and revealing like biking shorts, quickly got it hard through 
my pants, and any limited foreplay with my partner shucked them, jacked off in 
the lights till it was good and hard, and then proceeded to make the rounds of 
the shadowy figures in the arena.  

The mental games I had to play to keep my sanity were intense.  Some of
these geezers would knock my john thomas to pinky size in a new york minute,
but they had the cash I was after.  I would thrust my cock close to their
faces (they couldn't touch your genitals, gluteals or anus--not just a good
idea, SF law) let them stroke my abs and muscles.  If they put cash in my
socks, I would stay a little longer.  If they just groped, I'd move on.
Rarely there would be some hot guy in the crowd, and we would have a little
fun, but usually I would be very strict on letting people touch my cock.

These shows paid $30 in a paycheck at the end of the week plus tips, which
went from $5 to $30/40.  I had to bring a jambox with music.  I usually
played Iggy Pop--Sixteen, Some Wierd Sin and Lust for Life.  The first
time I tried to do it, I was working with the manager, whom I would suck
off in a minute.  I was having a hard time getting it up; so hard that
I gave myself a blood blister on the topside of my cock--the wierdest thing.
After a few weeks, I had arranged it mentally so I could produce a raging
hardon at will in front of strangers--a neat trick.  

There were shows like the arena show that took place up in the main theater
that also paid $30, but it was much different since I had to dance on this
stage, and the tip-bearing customers were dispersed throughout the theater.
I was kind of like a honey bee, flitting from flower to flower in search of
pollen, which I collected in my socks.  Only these flowers were dead, wrinkled
and ugly old men and the pollen was $1 (or sometimes $5 and a few times $20).

The arena show and the stage show both ended with a mountainous load of jism 
shot theatrically for the crowd.  The schedules were for one week, so in the 
arena show, where there were two of us, we would sometimes split the jism
so only one of us would come each day.  Many of my partners were, er, 
independent contractors who had other clients and needed to keep the load
for a higher-paying customer.  I can shoot 3 loads a day without any effort,
so I usually relieved myself every day.

The last kind of show was the scuzzyiest--the shower show.  There was no
payment for this kind of show.  I did an abbreviated arena show--longer
if the tips were big, shorter if they weren't--making sure not to come.
I then envited my clients into the shower area, which was a scuzzy shower
with a few theater seats.  The deal was that they had to pay $20 to come
into the shower with you, but here they could touch me wherever they wanted,
although I always kept veto power over who did what to me.  The $20 was to
cover 5-7 minutes, so it was easy to say "time's up!" when some old troll
(sorry for the ageism) was getting carried away.

There were a few weeks of feast, where I _just_ made the $210 that a week of
paid arena shows paid, but some days, I would walk out of there with more
than $100.  I can remember rich old men peeling off the $20's to keep
chugging away at my cock.  Sometimes some good-looking european tourists
would stumble in and it would almost be fun.  On a few ocassions, my partners 
were hot enough that we would get it on again upstairs after the show before 
the next pair would come in.

All things must come to an end, and in January, 1991, I finally got a contract
to do software engineering.  I did my last show on Sunday, and started at
my new job on Monday.  During this period, I made almost $10,000 with my
cock--more than I ever spent on gym memberships or bicycles, the things
which which I built my body.  I prefer earning a living with my largest
sex organ instead of my dick, but if I am confronted with the same economic
circumstances and still have as hot a body as I have now, I would do it
all over again.
