Do you think it's possible that some porn performers actually love each other? Or is it just lust and bullshit, carefully concocted fantasy play acting?
Peter North had fond memories of Ginger Lynn and Nina Hartley back in the day, at the beginning of his career, when porn performers actually had names, and Bud and Hyapatia Lee married.
Seems to me it'd be a strange life, to be in that business and try to form any kind of solid relationship, but maybe it's possible...these people have to dig each other somewhat...can't be all about lust and the love of the almighty buck...can it?
Opines?

There was another interview (can't remember her name) but she was married to either the producer or director and they've been married a long time.
I can see porn stars having solid relationships whether their partner/spouse is a porn star, in the industry in another way or has nothing to do with it and I can see porn stars just doing it for the money, lust and the fun of it without having any feelings for whoever they're in the movie with.
Like with everything else, everyone is wired differenty so how something affects one person, the same thing will have a different effect on someone else.
There are people who can't see how swingers or people who engage in 3somes or people with open marriages can have a solid, good, healthy, loving relationship with their partner/spouse but it can and does happen.
If we were all wired the same way, that would be so boring.
I work in the SF Valley - not in the industry or anything like that - but it's sometimes pretty obvious when you run into people in "the industry". Once I was on a flight back from Vegas to Burbank and Jenna Jamison and a bunch of her friends were on the flight too. Evidently they had won some awards at the porn entertainment show in Vegas because they had them with them on the plane. From what I saw they were kind of like a family of sorts together. I'd guess that when you're in an industry that really publicly sets you apart from most of society that you would probably be drawn to each other - if for nothing else - the common experiences, and maybe ways of thinking? At least in the Valley it seems to be a relatively small and somewhat close knit industry culture.
Just thinking out loud here... Interesting topic.
