I think this is a nice sign of how high and deep hypocrisy is these days.<p>I'll find it very hard to believe that any single person with access to a computer has not visited pornhub at least once in his/her life. That alone makes pornhub a high traffic web-site. Without any insider knowledge I'd presume it's also technical savvy if only for it to support the high traffic. So, that would place it amongst a place that as a tech person I'd love to work in. At least according to the stereotype techies are after technical challenges.<p>Only that it does not exist. At least not in the regular "serious" jobs sites. E.g. Linkedin. And I guess that this "stigma" is perpetuated and rains over the professionals in all of this industry with mostly bad consequences for them and their families. And TBH I don't understand how and why I rarely if ever hear of a startup in that business domain. Is it the "stigma" again? Because I find it hard to believe that there is not money to be made there and stale waters to be disrupted there.<p>Dunno. Does anyone else feel the same?
I don't think it's complicated. There's some stigma because you can't comfortably talk about it around the dinner table with grandma and the kids. Not because how popular it may or may not be.
Porn tends to involve, at the business end, people who are comfortable exploiting others. They tend to be assholes who don't pay their bills and chisel at everything around them. Not <i>all</i>, certainly, but enough that the whole category of business should be asked to pay up front.
I'd label Indeed.com a serious job site. <a href="https://www.indeed.com/q-Adult-Film-Industry-jobs.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.indeed.com/q-Adult-Film-Industry-jobs.html</a> Pornhub has 8 job postings on their website.
if you're interested you don't need to see a job posting in linkedin, they probably have a careers page in their website.<p>As of why there is a stigma, it's because many people consider porn unethical, even if they participate in it, just like people who believe smoking is bad but still do it. It's not hypocrisy, it's more likely an addiction.
Because some porn is very objectionable. This is a case of the whole basket being judged for its rotten apples, and I'm not sure that's a bad thing.
Probably depends on the company: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/kink-com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.linkedin.com/company/kink-com/</a>
I'm not sure if this is 100% accurate, but in some TV shows/movies I've watched, the Japanese are portrayed to be pretty tolerant/non-judgemental of people who work in the adult entertainment world.<p>People often passionately discuss trivia about (adult entertainment) actors like they would about sports personalities in the west.
Its the highest paying job in the arena, if you're in it. It's a base instinct. Nothing to be proud of, nothing to exploit.<p>The same people that own the highest porn sites, own the highest real estate estate sites etc. Its just business.<p>Don't feed em. Just flog it off to imagination if need be, or a partner.
