On pricing

So basically in the porn industry there are different levels of what people will do. Nude modeling and Playboy-style you don't actually show penetration, pretty much it is nude and pretty and then you do solo stuff...then you move up to girl-girl and then their is girl ­girl hardcore which is actual sex and there is girl-girl soft-core, which is simulated and then there is boy-girl and then you get into girls who will do interracial which is considered more, like, taboo. You work yourself up the levels and the more you do the more work you get and the more money you make.

Films are picked up for distribution faster if the actors are not wearing condoms, and the talent earns more money for not wearing condoms.
