Women Spend Money On Porn (Men can comment)

Women Spend Money On Porn (Men can comment)

I'm not sure of actual numbers. But I'm sure most money is obviously spent by men on porn. I'm mainly doing this blog to hopefully get comments from women here on xhamster. But hey I'm not a man-hater if you spend money on porn chime in with why or why not.

So why do some people that love porn never spend a dime? I mean the internet is full of free porn. Why should you spend a dime? It can come across as embarrassing to one’s partner or friends if they get to know that they are paying for pornography. Let's use me for example. I currently live alone. I have a purple plastic tote under my bed that has some Porn DVDs and Blu-rays in it. That I have purchased. Which brings me to a point I will get to later. Digital version physical copies. But first back to the question at hand. Also, there’s is this misconception that males or females must be a total pervert if they are paying for porn. People that pay for porn I think, do it for many different reasons. Let's look at Xhamster for a moment my favorite porn site. I have bought tokens in the past to give gifts to my friends here. (Speaking of I wish Xhamster would bring back gifts one day). I not only did this cause of my friends and I thought it would be fun. I did it because it supported Xhamster. I also think people pay for porn because they want a personal experience with a cam girl. Also, there are some of us that have a favorite pornstar and maybe we want to support their career. Which I have done before. I have bought some digital downloads as mentioned about Blu-rays and DVDs. So back to the original question. Why should you spend money on porn? I personally think if you like a website or a pornstar etc. you should show them a little love with some purchases. I mean this is their job after all. But let me add if you have a spouse or your boyfriend or girlfriend etc is going to have issues and that is going to cause you problems. I mean sure as hell don't do it. But I do believe there are other ways you can help them out if you can't spend money. Say your a huge Dani Daniels fan or some other porn star. Point your friends that you know that does spend money in the direction where they can show a star a little love. Also, let's not forgot, the main argument for paying for porn, the porn industry deserves our support.

Digital Vs Physical Media:

I'm only 30. But give me a physical copy over digital stuff any day. We're are living in a time when digital is crazy popular with all the streaming services. I get though, digital is so much easier and cheaper for not just movie companies. But Pornstars making their own content. I'm just curious though if some of these pornstars that were doing their own content started offering DVD's on-demand. Like you order a physical copy and you pay a few dollars more. They produce it when you order it. So it takes a couple of weeks for you to get. I wonder how these would sale for them? There would be a demand I'm sure. Let's look at Sinn Sage. She posted about having a certain clip for sale. The clip looked really good. I wrote her back on twitter and said "I wish these were also released on DVD for us old school people that love physical media still. :)" She took the time to respond to me and said this. "Sinn Sage -Ya! Unfortunately i don’t own the means to produce DVDs!" So let's look at this. In a time when Vinyl Records are thriving. I think to produce on-demand DVDs would work. Say you want a physical copy you just check the box with a physical copy. You obviously pay more for the physical copy. They record it when you order it. So within 2 weeks well say your DVD comes in the mail. I personally think this is a great idea and for me, I would probably purchase even more. Yes, I have purchased digital downloads. But I forever will love physical copies of media. Wonder if I can get someone from Xhamster to comment here. Has Xhamster ever produced a physical copy of something to use as advertising material or for the press? I'm just curious.

Pornstars

Sadly I don't think most pornstars don't understand that Women spend money on porn as well. I heard the saying for years. "Lesbian porn is made for men" Yes some Lesbian porn is garbage and is for men. But there are talented stars out there making amazing content. Sinn Sage, Dani Daniels, and Blair Williams to name a few. I could go on and on. Speaking of Sinn Sage and Blair Williams a shout out to both of them. I know they all probably get tons and tons of comments and there no way they can reply to everyone. Big thumbs up to Blair Williams and Sinn Sage, they have both taken the time to reply to me on twitter. So I do believe they appreciate their female fans, just as much as they do there male fans. But a lot don't. I can see some stars all over every male comment they get. But ignoring the female's comments. Those stars are forgetting the purpose of this blog. Women Spend Money On Porn as well.

Men Vs Women.

I really hope I get some feedback and comments on this blog. I want to know if you made porn purchases before. If you want to share please share. I love to hear from Men and Women. I have done physical copies as well as digital copies. Digital-only when I had no other option. I know this long and my grammar is not that good. But I will love to heard some comments. So feedback and opinion. :D


Post away and I will leave you with this thought.

How can this industry continue to exist if no one is paying for its product?

I started paying for porn as soon as i turned 18. I have been paying for 20 years and i love it. Ive had up to 25 DVDs. Some classics that i wish i still had. I dumped those 5 years ago and moved in with my GF. I have since started my DVD collection again (up to 20 by now) and am now a paying member to XHamster Premium and annual member to Adult Time, which is how i found the value in paid digital access. I am happy I have my paid membership because they really do great service for their members and i get to explore and discover the highest quality content that keeps getting better. Thanks for the stimulating and frank dsicusion topic Nova.

The Porn industry as it is will not survive,I was a camgirl and became friends with a few in the adult industry as Porn stars are now doing their own cam shows as they make more money that way ,some sell dvds and their own merchandise too,and unless porn has advertisers on their movies in the future it's a dying industry and the only porn you'll see in the future is homemade stuff

I wonder if the amount of money girls spend on toys balances out?  Seems like most women are likely to own a dildo/vibrator, but most guys don't own a masturbatory toy.

one more thought: If I got hit by a bus....

well there are 2 scenarios. when i´m dead I´m dead and don´t care about anything. When in hospital then probably someone brings me my toothbrush and pyjamas without looking for this purple box under my bed. And even if: so what? It´s perfectly legal, so nothing to be embarrassed about anything. I mean it´s just porn, I did not trade slaves, no exploiting anyone ,nor founded a bank...
and if someone finds out that I masturbate, well first: I don´t do to every single clip/pic. second I´m a human am I? So ofc I do, nothing to blush.

to Dark_Witch : I guess in those days my experience was limited to what I came across, and I didn't encounter anything particularly tasteful or erotic. 'female friendly' porn has come a long way in recent years.

to weichmacher : I never thought about that before. Blind buys without seeing trailers etc. Wow that had to suck. If you bought something the cover looked great and then you get home to watch it and it's garbage. I have purchased a few digital downloads. But it still bugs me that I can't get it on a DVD. I got the means. I think from now on when I purchase a download I'm going to make a DVD for my personal use. Or maybe even a blu-ray if it's 1080 download.

to weichmacher : That is a very good point in the advertising space around the product. These free porn sites won't as many members as they can get so they can tell the said people paying to advertise we got so and so members.

to Dark_Witch : I think you had not the way to read my comments : actresses have our support, "we"(porn community) buy their products then (more important) "we" share the products all around the world, "we" use crowdfunding, "we" use forums to talk about new actors (male and female), about me : I work hours for my friends, looking for products "taste by taste" and I know several of my friends will buy videos or they will pay for "videos on demand" or "live streaming porn" (the future, because is interactive in real time).Surely the stars (male and female) have to talk with their co-workers to acquire the "know how" about the new development of the show business and this is not a matter of porn, stremaing, "on demand" and "crowd funding" are the "new" ways to make money all around the world since the 2013, here as on the other social networks and xHamster is very important or the most important adult social network because it has "blogs" and xH allows us to be here and discuss about our opinions and share them more than share videos, I never seen a so powerful "online device" elsewhere (in the adult sites). Meanwhile "we" are here sharing our experiences "we" are working for the industry and the stars too.You made a post about your favorite stars and I look for them to discover their activities, their works, their "categories", because I'll share them, here and out of here (in private). "We" are the engine of the business, more or less "we" are all "influencers" and "we" trust each others.

Yes I´ve paid for porn. In my early days I just got betrayed, paid horrendous prices for goofy to dumb bullshit. Nowadays i can watch previews, trailers or free summaries and then pay for something i really want. Or pay by being an advert target.
Paying real money makes me wanting real goods. If its online I want to download it and keep it under my personal control. Otherwise I could just send an audio with some jingling coins. Or maybe you prefer a vid of me waving some bills?

the industry has changed completely. In former times the product was sold, nowadays the advertising space around the product is sold. "Amateurs" came out of the niches and more or less eliminated the "studios".
The market(s) changed. In former times someone made a product and a customer bought it. Nowadays esp. in porn the "user" thinks about himself of being a customer but all he is, is the merchandise of companies selling advert space.
just my 2 cents

I honestly haven't bought anything besides maybe a magazine but it was years.
It had a DVD in it with one of my favorite women at that time, it had Nikki Rhodes in a girl-on-girl scene so I needed this in my life. But yeah back in the day I didn't watch as much porn as I do right now, I wasn't single that's also a reason why.

Would I buy anything now? I'm always interested in getting a subscription account to like a very good pornsite but I never do. And just as you said, you can get what you want for free anyway!

I didn't get into watching porn until it was all digital, internet, vod etc..... I am old enough to remember Vhs etc, but in those years it never really piqued my interest. I have no problem with spending a little money on porn, actually I prefer it if it makes matters easier. I did buy a subscription to a VOD site for a year so I could easily watch whatever scene I wanted. Come to think of it, it is way more practical for me. The money is not that much, I don't have to keep anything on my hard drive or worse a bunch of dvds I have to hide all the time etc.....porn have become way more mainstream than it used to, I wish major streaming services would give the users an option to include it in their package so we can watch whatever we fancy whenever and wherever, just like movies and shows. Nobody goes out looking for box-sets anymore..... That way porn studios will be paid for their work too, just like regular studios

I use to have several porn movies, and don't laugh but they were all on VHS. So with time, of course, it's hard to come by a vhs player that worked well. So that's when I started looking on the web. But I get DVD copies of movies from a company I buy my adult toys from as a free gift. Sometimes it's nice to watch an entire movie, sit back and relax, do what feels good without having to keep clicking different videos to play. And there are still good movies being made.

to Scuzz_Twittly : I get what you're saying and agree on most of it. But let's look at pornstars they run their own site. That's how they make their money. If they are not working for a big company. They are selling stuff off the site then they need support.

to Blasig : Thank you for the reply and I totally get it. You can never be too careful. My biggest fear is getting hit by a bus and my parents finding my stash. LOL!. But I told my sister if anything ever happens to me. Get the purple box under my bed and don't look in it. Just burn it. I have tons of porn on my computer but it is locked with a password no one knows.

I am an older female who does appreciate porn. I have purchased "hard copies" in the past, yet I appreciate the versatility of digital. I currently do not pay for porn as I could seriously damage my career if I was ever found out. Yes, I could do it in a way that would keep me anonymous, however, I have chosen to have a protective hedge around myself by playing it safe by not having any possible link between myself and my love for porn. Should things in my life change in the future, then I am sure that my spending habits would also change.

Depends.  I agree with you wholeheartedly about professional performers getting a fair cut.  However, buying premium memberships at porno sites does not guarantee that performers get one extra dime.  On occasion I'll spend money on a cam show if the girl is into femdom (my fetishes), but I prefer to take my hard earned dollars to a strip club or pay a real time dominatrix for her services.  You know exactly where your money is going that way.

Hard to comment, there was a time when I along with my gf had a collection of VHS(I'm showing my age) and DVDs. There was a store that sold just porn videos, not like an Adult book store with sex toys and video booths, this place sold just the videos and we would see lots of couples and single men and women buying them. I also worked in the computer field and part of my job was to wipe the data off of computers for the next person to use. I found that there were a lot of women that had downloaded pictures and some video clips as well as men. As far as being in the digital age and the industry surviving, I guess what might be keeping it alive is the PPV market on cable and satellite tv. If you scroll through those channels it seems like there is almost every genre out there. Although I do not have my physical collection any more, I threw it all away during a bout of sorrow and remorse(long story there). There were some films that I have yet to find that I enjoyed.

So you have to understand these Goddesses are not stupid, they work together, they talk together, they help each others and they make the way to make money with the famous "porn not porn" or "porn without sex", fetishes and BDSM are not assumig "sex" as the core of the matter but, cause the big producers, the customers will pay a lot to satisfy their desires, cause this reason actresses as Kendra James, Randy Moore, Emily Marilyn, Mary Jane Green, Anastasia Pierce are showing to the other actresses the path of Dita von Teese, because the are friends and lovers and they talk together about their lives and how to solve some problems, of course they had male friends but no one of them was a "major", they were "indipendent" but........they were on Tumblr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!             The "blog", the "1byDay" for.......free! (Jim Weathers and his lesbian friends) and they were on xHmaster too and they're still there.....for free!                 https://xhamster.com/videos/princess-ballgagged-5644378                      do you think someone bought this "stupid" video? Yes, despite it was here (very old, Emily Addison now is working as MILF fo Br@zzers, more than 3 years)          check their work on Tumblr here              https://xhamster.com/posts/9702246        several of them are still working as "indies" , other were or are pornstars, others are just....."girlfriends"(2003 to 2018).....several of them are "managers" of their own sites. Industry is not in peril because we are sharing porn on xHmaster but because Industry was sure the women are stupid, what a mistake! Selen was an italian pornstar, she won millions in font of the judges because Industry what thimking to use her despite her will, xHmaster won against Fr@serside and it's easy to understand why, xHamster is just a drop in the ocean.

Women buy porn and women manage porn, helping other women, especially with "indie" productions, actresses know very well how to manage their carreers, the Pent-House Pet of Septmber, Naomi Swann made hundreds of fetish indie videos, often "on demand", anyway she works for the big producers too, 2000 was the "new millennium" more for the porn than for the others, I think you know Hustl3r, but I thnik you don't know it was a french property during the early 2000 years (D0rcel), several european producers were working with internet before of the "social networkors", so you have to think there are no oceans on this planet for the porn business, D0rcel sold Hustl3r but he made connections with U.S.A. and the eastern europe, so you can find India Summer as 21 actress (21 is hungrian), Gyrlfryends Fylms has/owns 3 societies in the eastern europe for the develop of its "films" with european pornstars and it is the most "lesbians oriented" producer cause the "films" have plots(lore), an english man bought the old S.Francisco Navy Arsenal to found Kynk, with the help of Sandra Romain (romanian actress) he worked with Sasha Grey, Phoenix Marie, Kendra Lust, because Br@zzers don't works on the BDSM products but the english man is very rich, he has no problem to call agents and offer money at the actors (male and female), he discovered Mona Wales, then, after some "indie" videos, Mona was working for the Evyl Ang3l of Rocco Siffredi co-owner of the production house with a japanese man, you like Sinn Sage? Ok, she was working with Zafira (hungrian?)  for VyV Th0mas (english director).Around the 2010 all this persons were online, everywhere so I help you with a name of a "serial" made by Denis De Francesco(italian), in Hungary, "1byDay", assume Denis has 100 good customers and they pay 10 dollars for each video, day by day, it means 1000 dollars day by day and Denis don't work all the days but he owns 13 sites, to satisfy several categories of customers, Denis works a lot with the digital delivery as Rocco, anyway they make DVDs too, 13000 $ for a day since the 2010 but...Denis has more than 100 good customers, as the "indies" have more than 100 good customers on the pages of "clyp f0r s@le" and if Denis stop to work, the sites remain online 24/7 as the videos of the "indies" are online 24/7, of course if you are Naomi Swann you have more chances to gain customers, especially if you are bisexual as Naomi is and if you're friend of the "lesbian sisterhood of porn" and lesbians are clever enough to understand what the men and "women" hates : cocks and bad products meanwhile they love : beautiful women, good actresses, wonderful lingerie, love stories, kisses, GLANCES, emotions so, indies works "on demand" and the customer have the joy to avoid unuseful obstacle as muscular male asses in front of the camera, because the meaning of "porno" is "whore, harlot" (πόρνη) but the ancient πόρνη were Goddesses, powerful women(next)

My original reply to your first attempt at this post took a nostalgic trip down the history of porn since I have seen it from the very early days in the 70's thru modern times. But now that I have seen your full post, I have a very different reply.

Trust me, someone is always paying for their product, otherwise the industry would not exist. So don't worry, the adult industry makes tons of money every means possible. First of all the artist are paid a daily scale or specific rates depending on skill set and performances. So Everything after that has nothing to do with them getting paid or not. The Producers and Financial Backers of these films, make money several ways. First they have direct sales of Digitally Produced hard copies, i.e. DVD Discs and promotional materials. Secondly they make money off of internet sales and rentals. Lastly, they then provide the content freely to many tube sites and adult sharing sites, but then make a percentage of advertising sales from that site, and can work out private deals with selling their userbase information to those sites and their advertising partners. So trust me, the Producers do what they have always done in the Porn Industry, they make the Lion's Share of all Profits while doing absolutely nothing in the production of the film other than cutting a check to all parties involved. After that, almost all revenues made from the film go to them and them alone. So stop worrying about the artists making any money and not feeling support.

Now to answer your question, YES, of course I have bought Porn many times in the 80's and 90's, but then in the late 90's and early 2000's when I started making many of the Adult Websites users came to know and love, I saw how there was no reason to buy the physical copies anymore since everything a user could desire was readily available to them at the push of a button on their computers or home entertainment systems. So feeling guilty about watching it for free is not in my D.N.A. anymore, since I have seen first hand how the artists and film makers are still exploited being paid only scale and rarely a percentage of gross whereas the producers are the ones profiting from any additional sales or online rentals once the material goes into distribution. That is why back in the 80's and 90's Top Shelf Porn Actresses still had to work nudie bars and strip clubs to make money on the side, because they have always been exploited by producers, and they still are today. The only exceptions being those Porn Stars that have become big enough to produce their own materials and profit through their work in all aspects of sales and rentals. So owning physical copies only means you can watch it when you want even without an internet connection, but it usually does not translate into any additional money for your favorites porn stars.
