This is especially true if the scene is very long. After all, they are banging some of the world’s most beautiful women – sometimes several at a time, and most normal guys bust from their hand alone, even if they AREN’T going as hard or as long as the performers on the screen.

It turns out, there’s a lot of industry tricks that help male performers last so long. While these may not help you in bed with your significant other – let’s be honest, I could make an entire course on how to last longer in bed, I did want to share some behind-the-scenes of how porn shoots work – so you can have a better understanding on how performers can keep their erection without cumming!

1. Editing, With Breaks

One thing we should clear up right from the beginning, is that the videos are shot straight through.

This couldn’t be further from the truth!

Every time there’s a camera cut in the video, chances are there was some sort of break being done. This can be as little as a few seconds to adjust position, to hours or even days later. It’s not uncommon for the production crew and the performers to stop and eat lunch in the middle of a scene, before continuing it afterwards.

Even something as short as a 20 minute video can take 4+ hours to produce.

Performers are constantly having to stop not only to switch positions, but to adjust things like lighting as well. Performers may need to stop and pee. There could be a million reasons why filming needs to pause.

Just like regular movies are filmed over the course of months, porn shoots have a lot of breaks – it’s the editor’s job to make them not seem so obvious.

So, this on its own gives the male performer’s penis a chance to rest – and it’s not like he’s edging that whole time!

2. Performers Are Pumped Full Of Drugs

Just like you probably don’t want to take lengthy breaks while having sex with your partner, another way porn is unnatural is because drugs are used to help the male performer last longer!

See, it’s not that male pornstars are just magically blessed in bed – this is just another way porn reinforces these completely false ideas. Remember, this is a production, and just like the porn storylines are entirely made up, a lot of the actual sex is highly planned and directed as well.

Anyhow, what sorts of drugs are we talking about?

To start with, something like Viagra or Cialis is used to keep the male performer hard for long periods of time, even if the sex isn’t even all that pleasurable.

Numbing agents like benzocaine can also be used to decrease the sensitivity of the penis, making it so they really don’t feel as much while having sex.

Again, shooting a porn scene is a job. They are making a movie for you, the viewers. It is not meant to be fun for the performers if it comes at the expense of the scene.

So yeah, maybe they can go for hours… but what’s the point if they’re tired and don’t feel anything, right?

3. They Are Professionals… So They’re Desensitized

As if shooting a porn scene could become any sadder for the men out there, a lot of them have sex so frequently, they’ve become completely desensitized to it.

People who suffer serious porn addiction often experience the same thing. If you consume too much of something too frequently – even if it’s something you love or that used to make you excited, it starts to lose its appeal.

Sex is fun. It drives a lot of our behavior. Most of us don’t get enough of it.

But for male pornstars, they may be doing it so frequently that it just doesn’t hold the same excitement it would for someone else – even if you’re railing an extremely attractive woman.

4. Mental Distraction

This is one technique you can try at home!

Despite all of the other tactics mentioned in this article, male pornstars still may end up cumming early by accident, if they’re not careful.

Thankfully, one tool we all have at our disposal is mental distraction.

Sex is best when you’re fully embracing everything that’s happening to you. But when you’re trying not to cum, removing yourself from the situation mentally can help delay your orgasm. Whether it be doing math problems in your head or picturing your grandma naked, porn stars have become experts in using mental distractions to prevent themselves from cumming, if they feel that they’re going to cum too early.

And heck, even if they do cum early, editors can always film the cumshot, and then start filming other parts of the scene later, after the performer is ready to go again. Just because it looks like the cumshot happened at the end, doesn’t actually mean that’s what happened during filming!

Even when I record my audios, I will occasionally realize during editing that I messed up a line – and sometimes end up recording it weeks after the rest of the audio was recorded. Nobody’s able to tell!

5. Shooting Porn Is Uncomfortable!

Finally, many people don’t realize how uncomfortable shooting porn can be!

First things first, you have cameras shoved in your face or near your naughty bits, you’re surrounded by men watching you while you’re completely naked, there are bright lights shining on you, and you may even have someone holding a microphone above you as well.

Imagine how well you’d perform with some middle-aged dude with his face near your ass, filming underneath your balls to capture your penis going in and out of the woman!

Even for those of us who aren’t shy, it isn’t exactly helping the mood.

Of course, there’s physical discomfort as well. A lot of the sex positions are completely unnatural. You have to position your body in weird ways to avoid shadows from the light appearing in the video. You may be asked to perform sex positions that are physically demanding, and are more akin to a workout than an act of pleasure.

Even using an arm to hold yourself up for an extended period of time very quickly becomes tiring. It’s hard to orgasm when your muscles are on fire!

Closing Thoughts

Like with any professionally-shot movie, what you are seeing on your screen is not real. It is heavily edited, staged, and directed, making it about as far from natural sex as possible.

Other than the fact that male pornstars have become densensitized to sex, there is nothing magical about their penises. This is why producers must resort to things like heavy editing and drugs to ensure the performers are able to last long enough until the scene is done.

So, don’t feel bad if you cum much quicker than your favorite pornstar – this is completely normal, and nothing to feel bad about.

I’m curious – having read all this, do you think you’d last on a porn shoot? Do you think you could keep up with the physical demands of it? Let me know in the comments below!

And I suppose that makes sense. After all, biologically speaking, our sole purpose is to have a good time and procreate as much as possible.

But for pornstars, you have to wonder – since it’s their job, are they actually able to enjoy sex – both while filming, or when they go home? How does their work affect their sex life? Are they just faking it, or is any part of it genuine?

These are excellent questions. I am friends with a few notable performers myself, and of course, make my own audio porn – so I’m happy to share their thoughts along with my own!

Do Porn Actors Enjoy Sex While Shooting The Scene?

For the most part, the answer is yes!

Performers have their own tricks for getting legitimately turned on. And while porn shoots can last for a lengthy period of time (several hours), the act of having sex feels good. Feeling a hard cock slide in and out of your vagina is always going to be pleasurable as long as you’re actually turned on and in the right headspace for getting fucked.

I’d imagine the same holds true for men, as well. Some of my favorite phone sex clients are gooners, and we literally have calls that last for 3, 4, 5, even 6 hours or longer, gooning out to porn together. You can hear the lust in their voice, you can tell how good their cocks feel.

That being said, it is a little different for pornstars.

Remember, It’s Still A Job For Them

If you’ve ever had sex with someone because you felt obligated to and not because you really were in the mood to, maybe you can relate.

Porn is an artificial environment for the performers. They show up to work just like you would show up at an office, with a job to do, and an eagerness to get it done.

They may barely know the person that they’re going to be having sex with, and they’re under pressure to make sure the scene is shot the right way, as quickly as efficiently as possible.

This is not like fucking to completion. It may involve putting your body in uncomfortable positions, stopping and adjusting to get a better camera angle, or recording equipment shoved near your face.

There are other people watching and telling you how to fuck, what sex acts to do, and so on. Basically, it’s all choreographed.

This is the exact opposite of how natural sex is – where everything happens in the moment, based on what the two (or more) of you are actually feeling and desiring.

Combine this with the fact that these shoots can last far beyond what’s enjoyable… and it’s natural for the performer’s minds to wander to more exciting things, like what they’ll be doing after work, or what they’re going to eat when they get home.

This doesn’t mean the sex isn’t pleasurable, or that their orgasms aren’t real, and so on.

But by the end of a long shoot, it’s hard to keep up the same attitude you do at the beginning, particularly if things don’t go as smoothly as planned.

As someone that makes audio porn from the comfort of my own home, I realize how good I have it. I only have to work with myself and my own body. I am my own director. I don’t have to make myself look great, travel to the set, and stay there until the scene is done.

For performers on video – especially those with professional studios, it’s a lot more ‘work’ than it looks.

Does It Affect Their Sex Life At Home?

Here’s another different, but similar question. If they spend the day having sex with someone else, can they still enjoy their sex lives at home?

According to the girls I’ve talked to, they can!

For us women, a lot of sex has to do with the mental side of things. We crave not only the physical sensation, but the connection and intimacy with our partners.

Many pornstars admit they get far more horny when having sex with their partners than with the most attractive men or women on the planet, for this very reason.

Having sex with someone else earlier in the day typically doesn’t affect their ability to have great sex with their partner once they get home. Though, if a shoot lasted longer than expected, it’s understandable that they may not want to.

I sure wish I had someone to ravage me as soon as I’m done with my recordings!

Closing Thoughts

Creating porn is work, and there’s a lot that goes into it. From preparing yourself looks-wise to traveling to the set, to being heavily directed with multiple cameras and microphones in your face… it is certainly less pleasurable than having natural, raw sex with someone you’re into.

Of course, this doesn’t mean it’s not enjoyable, and a lot of adult stars do legitimately enjoy the work – finding it fulfilling and pleasurable at the same time.

Do you think you’d enjoy a career in porn? Do you have any further questions you’d like to ask?

Can you hire one for a day, and how would you go about doing it?

Let’s be honest, a lot of people have probably thought about what it would be like to fuck their favorite pornstar at least once. So, let’s look at whether or not this can actually be done, and what hiring a porn star entails.

Can You Hire A Pornstar?

By their very nature, pornstars are just contractors. They are hired out for work, no different than hiring an electrician or a plumber.

The only difference is, pornstars do a lot better at taking care of your pipes. (Okay, that was a bad joke.)

But seriously, the pornstars you see on your screen were filmed because someone booked them, hired them, and paid them for the shot.

There, they must be available to hire, if they’re still in the business.

The question is, are YOU able to hire them?

Small Studios

The truth is, if you are a small studio and you can afford to book a specific performer, you shouldn’t have a problem getting them to work on your project.

They will want to see that you are a legitimate studio, running a legitimate business. Having all of your legal setup in order – as well as a history of scenes shot with other performers, makes it far more likely to be taken seriously.

Many pornstars are managed by talent agencies, and the bookings will take place through them.

Typically, agencies will list the models they work with on their website, and will provide instructions on how to proceed with booking them. Of course, just because they represent a specific model, does not mean that the model will be available for your project.

Remember that this is a business relationship, and you should not expect free reign to have fun with the talent that you book.

Treating pornstars in an unprofessional manner not only tarnishes your reputation, but can even lead to sexual harassment charges or even prison time if you break the law. They are people, they have the same rights as anyone else, and you would be booking them for work.

Private ‘Fun’

What if you don’t run a studio, and just want to spend a day with your favorite pornstar?

This is where things get more tricky.

While it’s not unheard of for pornstars to do other sex work on the side – including meeting up with individuals, this is handled on a case-by-case basis.

As you might imagine, meeting up with people is an inconvenience at best, and a huge safety risk at worst.

Considering that real studios:

• Pay on time / reliably
• STD test all of their performers
• Are safe to show up at
• Move through the work in an organized and quick fashion

…It’s no wonder that performers would rather work through them, even if they would make promising money doing something else.

What Would It Cost To Hire A Pornstar?

So, let’s say that you did want to hire a pornstar for your project. What could you expect to pay for their work?

The exact rates will vary depending on who you’re trying to book, their prominence, the amount of work they currently have, the specific acts you want to perform, and more.

And of course, you’ll need to pay all travel expenses as well, if your desired performer does not live in your area. (This is one reason so many porn studios operate out of Los Angeles or Miami.)

Generally speaking, you can expect to pay a few hundred dollars for someone completely new to the industry, to several thousand dollars for a top-of-the-line performer.

Typically speaking, $800-1,500 per scene is typical for many pornstars, excluding travel fees. This also does not include any other staff that would typically be present for a porn shoot.

Additionally, additional rates may be charged for extreme sex acts or fetishes that are not traditionally done.

Remember: Pornstars Are Not Escorts!

I must say again that pornstars are not escorts, nor are they prostitutes.

While some may do escorting work on the side, you will not get anywhere thinking of them this way.

Just because someone is willing to get fucked on a camera, does not mean that they have any interest meeting up with others, are being recorded in a non-business setting.

Do not get upset if a pornstar you’re looking for isn’t available, or doesn’t have any interest in doing anything with you.

Getting anything more than traditional work is rare, so a ‘no’ shouldn’t come as a surprise – if you even get a response at all.

Closing Thoughts

Although it is possible to hire a pornstar for a day, most pornstars will typically only work with established studios.

To inquire about booking one of your favorite pornstars, contact the agency that represents them for more information.

And of course, if you have any other questions, ask them below!
