70s mainly, but I adored her. Cute, non-petite and eager. ---

Barbara Dare, anyone? With Christy Canyon and Ginger Lynne following, um, behind. ---

Late 80’s (into the early 90’s, maybe) Tiffany Mynx (before she retired and came back as a fake blonde with big fake tits). ---

Like most others, my favorite was my first - Nikki Charm ---

My porn fantasy girl was always Karen Summer. Unlike most porn stars, she actually looked like a real woman–no fake boobs, no big hair, not overly made up. Plus a little line of wispy hair from the navel down, which I found extremely arousing. ---

“A little line?” That was a freeway! 😃 But I, too thought Karen was hot. ---

If you think Jenna and Janine qualify as “current” I think you’ve been out of the loop a little bit. They are still performing I suppose, but I I think they are both in the Sammy Sosa portion of their careers. My girl back in the day is [Racquel Darrian](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racquel_Darrian). That ass was, and is, legendary. ---

Thanks to **xizor** , I’d like to slide Nikki Charm in front of Christy Canyon. After reviewing some online pictures, Barbara Dare doesn’t quite ring my bell like she did when I was a teenager. But back in the day she was #1, although Nikki Charm really was a close second. And Traci Lords was the obvious answer, but for all the wrong reasons. Right? No? I don’t know. ---

[QUOTE=Snooooopy] It seems only natural that you would start this thread, Dildo. [/QUOTE] That’s _H_ildo. Hyapatia Lee was absolutely stunning until see got her pert little rack augmented into horrific monster balloons. That really ruined it for me. Ooo, I forgot Rachel Ryan. She went through a lot of facial plastic surgery. It was interesting because when she started out, she LOOKED like a porn star. By the end of her surgeries, she didn’t. I love porn stars that don’t look like they’re porn stars. ---

I worked in a porn shop for about eight months in 1980 while I was in college, so I saw a lot of the stuff we were showing in the arcade. I always thought Seka had a sophisticated European charm that was very erotic. I once saw a film in which she bathed and dressed for a date (naturally, she later undressed and … well, “dated” the guy) but I found the bathing and dressing a much of a turn-on as the rest. And that red scarf she always wore – I think her trademark was that she never took off the scarf. ---

[QUOTE=DaddyTimesTwo] And Traci Lords was the obvious answer, but for all the wrong reasons. Right? No? I don’t know. [/QUOTE] Right. But if an under-age girl makes porn movies, then grows up and wants to release her old movies, is it still child porn? I mean, yeah, there needs to be a line drawn, and it doesn’t matter at what age, just so somebody designates where the line is – but she still made at least one porn movie after she turned 18. What was the difference, really? One day she’s being exploited, then she has a birthday and suddenly she’s not being exploited any more? Hmmmm … better quit there before my head explodes. Or something. ---

One more I’d like to add is Siobhan Hunter. Probably the most primal performer I’ve ever seen. She was in the first DP-scene I ever watched, from 1986’s _Night Shift Nurses_. Did I mention she played a nun? Me: FAP FAP FAP…Oh, this is SO wrong…(pause)…FAP FAP FAP ---
