Not knowing the answer to this question...
Ok, so this is a thinly disguised way of publicly airing my thoughts, but there you go - this is a Blog, it's what normal Bloggers do, so give me a break.
Anyway - the question that has been bothering me for the last week or so is:
What is the difference between a prostitute and a porn star?
Because, on the face of it, it's pretty simple, right? They both fuck for cash. It's as simple as that, isn't it? Or am I missing something? What is it that defines them?
Maybe it's that prostitutes are making themselves available to the public? You could argue the same is true of some porn stars - what about that Chinese woman who tried to shag as many blokes in a day as possible? She had hundreds of them lined up by public invitation. Or the American porn star who walks the streets looking for people to take home and do things to. Not that I watch these things, you understand. Someone once told me about them.
Consider this - phone rings, girl picks up phone. Man asks if she will come to a hotel room and have sex with two men. She agrees, goes to hotel room and has sex with the two men. She is paid cash.
What circumstance has to be in place that makes that girl one or the other?
Maybe porn stars pay tax?

been struggling to think of an answer too..because there is a difference...here goes..
I want someone to make me laugh.
I can either pay to got to a stand up club and watch funny people do what they're good at.
Or
I can pay someone to tickle me.
Who do I respect? The comic or the tickler?

It's a bit like the difference between tea plants and marijuana plants - both naturally occurring, both have stimulating effects when ingested, but one is illegal and one isn't.
It's the perceived 'effects' on society that makes them(prostitution/marijuana)illegal. Or does the fact that they're illegal create the 'problems' surrounding them?

"The oldest rentboy in knotty ash"
He actually recorded that single in 1985. Got to number 47, but the video was banned.

maybe the audience needs to be looked at for the definition:
prostitutes are for people who have to pay to have sex with someone.
pornstars are for people who pay to have sex by themselves.
Still not sure what the answer is?
