Yeah, I have heard that too. I think it is because its beginnings were based in an entirely different world then the one we live in. and they are carrying on the tradition.... but I'd be willing to bet it is changing to be nicer to the talent.

Back in the day it was basically strung out whores and backslapping pimps who used it as another way of exploiting a resource (pussy)

with the advent of the internet, you can actually have regular every day type of folks who like sex involved. 8mm wasn't that bad of a film but it definitely focued on the seedier side of this industry

There are bad apples in every bunch! I'm sure James still jerks off to the stuff, even if he does find the industry distasteful.

I think the video side of this business is no different to the stills side. I assume that is what you are talking about. In fact most do both anyway. So the slime factor is prolly the same.

Regional dynamics seem to be in play as well.

There's lots of starry eyed young hotties in the LA area looking for a big break but meanwhile needing money. With that supply, dirt bags can exist and get away with treating models as meat at best. Another fresh 18 year old gets off the bus every few hours.

Most of the real horror stories about bad treatment I've heard from models has been in LA. Of course, that also is where there's the most work.
