Watching Porn

And Other Confessions of an Adult Entertainment Journalist

De: Lynsey G.

Narrado por: Lynsey G.

Lynsey G. never imagined that she would ever work in porn, but at 24 years old, with a degree in English literature and an empty bank account, she found herself reviewing the film East Coast ASSault for an adult magazine in New York City. One interview later and it was official: she was a porn journalist. The job was supposed to be temporary - just a paycheck until she could spark her legitimate writing career - but she loved it and spent nearly a decade describing the nuances of money shots and the effectiveness of sex toys. As both a porn consumer and a porn critic, she was not quite an insider, not quite an outsider, but came to know the industry intimately. She found it so fascinating that she co-founded WHACK! Magazine. Finally, she had a platform to voice her thoughts and observations of the adult film world, as well as educate the rest of us about what really goes on behind the scenes.

Eventually, Lynsey was thrust back into the “real” world, but not before realizing that one of the most diverse and nebulous - and profitable - industries on the planet isn’t quite as different from the rest of the world as she thought. Tantalizing, eye-opening, and witty, Watching Porn is a provocative book about an average girl’s foray into the porn industry and the people who make it what it is, both in front of and behind the camera.

Pleasantly Surprised

I didn't expect much from this book other than the sex stories of my favorite porn stars. But the behind the scenes stuff, the goings on in the industry. The convention, who's a pain in the butt to be around. Great job, I enjoy this very much.

Fluff

overall this book seem like a compilation of Articles you could read on Google about the p*** industry or for the last 20 years. sprinkle in a magazine that never went anywhere on personal information as far as relationships scattered throughout

Enlightening and engaging

Well narrated look at an industry that explains much about pornography, the struggles of writing, and ourselves in the internet era.

Boring

I had a hard time getting through this book, just seemed like it dragged on. Just blah,blah about her.

Boring

I never thought the porn industry could be boring, this book proved me wrong. I couldn’t wait for it to be finished - Every-time I thought things might get interesting - I was wrong.

Yawn

boring spent 5 hours listening and gave up. made it to chapter 17 before I gave up. I was hoping to hear something funny/ interesting about a star or the business. never happened..
