Arm Candy Syndrome

It’s funny, I think, that more often than not porn is perceived in the public eye as a male dominated business where the girls are objectified and exploited by all these powerful and demanding men.
The reality is that most of these supposedly masochistic men behind porn are nothing more than sad, lonely usually old men that have no confidence with women. They get themselves involved in an industry where pretty girls who (they feel) need rescuing are in abundance, taking advantage of a girl’s supposed vulnerability. After all you don’t need any qualifications to make porn and if you’re not staring in it what else would be your motivation? You might think money but you’d be barking up the wrong tree if you did, but more about that later.
Actually it’s usually the case that the girl wrongly or rightly sees these little arrangements as a shrewd business move thinking that this will give her access to unlimited work opportunities. It’s easy to see why these pairings happen but the women are usually on top in these instances. The girls use the guys and the guys let them in return for them playing the prestigious sugar daddy with a sexy, sexually confident female hanging on their arm and on every word they say.

I call this arm candy syndrome. Right at this particular moment in time I can’t think of one major UK porn producer who isn’t dating a porn starlet.

Strangely these men are very monogamous creatures not playing the field in a typically promiscuous business. But I suppose it’s such a close community that if they did that, they risk losing said arm candy who they genuinely do love dearly but also need as an important status accessory to play in the whose got the biggest balls game.
In some circumstances these porn moguls can be very jealous. Well I suppose I’ve already explained that they are lacking in self confidence so that shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise. They only like there arm candy to do lesbian porn once any sort of relationship is entered into or some prefer to pick the guys she is allowed to work with. Very few arm candy girls continue to maintain the same level of work they previously enjoyed prior to dating a producer.

Porn is all about fantasy which I have said before but the fantasy doesn’t always stop when the cameras do. It’s a bizarre world.
