Why do porn stars always wear socks and shoes?

Hey! I want “As for guys, well nothing says “I’m dead sexy” like athletic socks on a hedgehog.” for a sig! LOL for the imagery and ridiculousness of the imagery…but then, if it has something to do with porn, maybe I don’t want it. Hmmm…

As for the hedgehog part, have you ever seen Ron Jeremy? shudders

Awww c’mon. It’s obvious.

You know how hard it is to get semen out from under your toenails? They wear sensible footwear so their feet won’t get sticky.

Please. :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

moggy, it’s all yours. Don’t worry about the porn angle, the only ones that would think that are the folks that watch porn, so they’d be in no, uh, position to say anything.

I think we have the real answer right up there in Cartoons post. The upside is that you can really get a mirror shine on those tennies!

I always thought Ron Jeremy looked like Super Mario.

… which is kinda spooky, considering he did play such a part in Super Hornio Bros..

mmmmmmmmmmmm… Mary Janes
enough said.

IANAL and this may be UL, but what I had always heard about str8 porn was that in olden days when “nudity” legally equalled “obscenity,” having the men wear black socks was a defense. “He’s not nude, he’s wearing socks.” No idea if, or why, women would be in socks and/or shoes, although perhaps the reason is the same? Or some old perv just decided shoes on a nekkid woman look hot and it became a trend and then an institution. Reaching back into the memory banks to my (thankfully) limited experiences with str8 porn I don’t remember that the women always wore shoes.

FWIW, in gay porn the choices are either bare feet, dirty white socks or socks and work boots. Since the guys are usually originally wearing jeans, they apparently take off the boots, remove the jeans and then put the boots back on again. Personally I hate it when they keep their socks on. It looks so artificial.

At least for gay porn, I don’t think the dirtiness of the set is a factor. A lot of them are shot in people’s homes who presumably keep their floors free of nails, broken lightbulbs and other misc. debris.

Why shoes and socks?

Two words: porn feet-os.

So then it’s agreed? It’s allWhammo’s fault!

Damn, damn damn his corn chip feet. Just when I think I’ve forgotten about them…
