As a slight hijack, there are very few porn actresses with bodies that i would call appealing. I detest the fake boob, overly made-up, malnutritioned look in females. Give me a natural body with all it entails any day. Perky small breasts are wayyyyy more interesting to me.

Um…I don’t have the giant schlong, but I’m pretty good looking. Kinda short though. 5’6", 135lbs. If you scaled me up to 6’2", probably.

Porn star body?  
Dear Og, no! Could you imagine the upkeep on one of those things?

Mainstream gay porn? Maybe in 20 years, when I could take part in some sort of daddy/son or some such movie. As for now, I’d be a perfect cub in a bear porn movie, as long as I took adequate time off work to grow my beard back.

I have to question the wisdom of a thread like this that lacks pictures.

And no. Not since the kids were born.

Oh, and I’m male.

And childless.

Sigh.

I’d be happy just to look average. Thar would be a step up for me.

What with [Rule 34](http://xkcd.com/305/) I think everyone has a body for porn. You, your mother, your grandmother, your dog…

Um…no. Ewwwwwwwwww. DeathLlama and I agree: my boobs are WAY prettier than the gawdawful overinflated (and lumpy, ewwwww!) bags we see in porn. Seriously. Made me feel so much better about myself! Heck, even after breastfeeding RuffLlama for 8 months, my boobs are waaaay prettier. I have a nice rack, what can I say. 🙂

But the rest of me…well, RuffLlama has left me with an annoying deflated tire ring around my waist, but other than that I’m in good condition. But…definitely not porn star material–I’d have to lose 20lbs to be that thin.

FTR, almost all “mainstream” porn these days uses what would probably be considered fairly attractive guys, and they ALL have decent bodies (I’m not including certain types of BDSM or gay porn, which are more likely to have bears, pigs, daddies, etc…) And they all have larger than average (but not necessarily giant) cocks. The days of Ron Jeremy and so forth are gone. Back then, it was mostly guys who had decent sized members and, the key part, could perform on demand. Now it’s not too hard to get guys some viagra or what have you to get them “up an at them”, so to speak. So now the studios go ahead and cast the better looking guys, cause even if they don’t admit it, even straight guys appreciate the better looking men. I mean, I know I’d rather see an in-shape guy naked than Ron Jeremy.

Sorry to ruin everyone’s hopes and dreams. 😃

That being said, if I got into shape and shaved my chest, stomach, crotch, legs, ass, and so forth, I could probably have a decent career in porn. Hell, one of my exes tells me I need to do porn. I’m certainly not Ron Jeremy or John Holmes sized, but I guess I do ok for myself. 😛

YPSMV\* but according to my friend in the business, most of the guys who do porn aren’t actually as well-endowed as they appear to be. Camera angles and shaving help quite a bit. They’re generally pretty well off, but the grand majority aren’t anything truly awe-inspiring in reality. There are the notable exceptions, but your generic, run of the mill porno guy isn’t too much larger than average.

As for my own body, no, I don’t think so. I’ve got a nice body IMHO and I’m fairly thin now, but oh my, it’s not just schlongs that look bigger in extreme closeup. :eek: I’d have to be much, much skinnier to get away with it–far skinnier than I’d want to be.

I get the sense that you people are not really up to date with the 2000s style of gonzo porn.

The guys’ bodies are quite good, most of them. For girls, fake breasts are out. They pretty much only need to be slim.

I don’t, but I do have the body of a Greek god.

That would be Bacchus, the short, fat god of wine.
