      I am not the parent commenter.

      Apparently, the process of filming pornography is really messy, arduous, starts to smell bad quickly, and many of the positions are uncomfortable. Not to mention the fact that many scenes need re-takes. That’s just the reality of filmmaking.

      It’s also quite awkward to have a director and camera crew staring at you the whole time and giving you instructions.

      I read this on an AskReddit thread.

      There are some minidocumentaries and interviews on the subject. On top of surgery and drug use being basically required, it’s not a career you can work in for more than a few years for most and comes with various health complications. Plus, once it’s out there on the internet it’s harder to pursue any other career with a public image.
