Stoya, Dylan Ryan and Satine Phoenix on Porn and Consequences

The Huffington Post has a great investigative piece on its site (link below) in which it asks three porn stars why they choose to go into porn and how the world treats them because of it. We have the same question for the Huffington Post.

First up is 28-year-old porn star Stoya. Why did she decide to fuck for money? "It sounded like fun." She likes her job because "I get to show different sorts of sexuality and sexual tastes and acts in what I feel is a pretty freaking ethical and enjoyable way."

Stoya was called a whore at her sister's wedding, but that was probably by a pimp. But she has only good things to say about her work. "I think the porn industry, ironically, can be much more respectful and consent-focused than the 'real world' is."

Dylan Ryan is a 28-year-old porn star and social worker. "Before I went into porn, I worked with a person named Shine Louise Houston. We were both retailers, but during our lunch breaks she would talk about wanting to start her own pornography company. And one day she said, 'If I ever get this off the ground and make my first movie, would you want to be in it?'" Her company focuses on females and queer sexuality.

Last but not least is Satine Phoenix, a former porn star, and current artist at 38 years of age. She says, "My dad molested me for ten years, nine years, on and off." But porn helped her regain her sexuality. "That specific style of sexual empowerment, being able to wield sexuality as power -- I needed to do that in order to be able to turn into the woman I am now."
