All language subtitles for Generation Porn S01E02 720p WEB-DL H264 BONE

The one person I really wouldn't
want to find me watching porn

would be my wife because I really
don't want to hurt her.

You know, I never, ever wanted
to watch porn and hurt my wife

or have her feel betrayed which is
what pornography does to a spouse.

So in its worst, on a bad day,

it could be two or three
hours of bingeing,

you know, just Twitter and feasting
on this buffet of two-minute videos.

Just constantly diving into it which
is why I class it as an addiction.

The programme contains strong
language, nudity, adult content
and graphic discussion about the
pornography industry and sex

Porn.

It's only ever a mouse click away.

Whoever you are, wherever you are.

No-one needs to know you are
looking at it

and it's absolutely free.

In Britain, we've become so worried,
there are now plans to block

under-18s from watching online porn.

Yes.

Yes, I know you're cumming,
you're cumming, you're cumming.

Since this programme started,
one minute ago,

more than 50,000 people

have gone onto the world's biggest
internet porn site, Pornhub.

How often would you use porn now?

Sometimes two times a day,

up to maybe easily probably
minimum five times a week.

It's hard to, like, get into bed
with your phone in your hand

and not then look at porn.

Yeah.

Pornhub alone receives
92 million visitors a day,

that's like the combined population
of Spain and Uganda logging on.

"Big tit anal..".

It's an industry
that's worth billions.

If I didn't think that I could make
$50,000 to $60,000 a month,

if I didn't think I could do that,
I wouldn't be doing this.

The genie is out of the bottle.

The internet was made for porn.

We brought porn to the masses.

There is more porn flooding the
Earth than ever before

in the history of mankind.

We'll explore how we got here,
how porn became free,

and how it exploded across
the world.

I just can't get my head round

that 11-, 12-, 13-year-olds
are watching porn.

I feel like I was fucked up because
I was watching porn at 12 years old.

We'll also try to understand

if porn is beginning to change you.

Because, whether
you want to admit it or not,

you are the people watching it.

Have fun, rolling and action.

There is a revolution going on
in the world of porn,

19-year-old Gia is six months
into her porn career.

It's a job she's aspired to
since she was just 12.

I do anal, I do girl-girl, I do
boy-girl, I'm doing boy-boy-girl,

I'm pretty open.

I don't really have a line
right now.

I'm reaching for the stars.

The days of soft-focus,
erotic fantasy are long gone.

The kind of porn Gia makes
was once labelled extreme.

Today, it's everywhere.

You can watch it on your smartphone.

So in a world where it's easier
than ever before to watch

extreme content, it's time to ask...

..is porn beginning to change us?

This is Cam Girl:
The New Movie,

Latin Teens, Anal Newbies 8,

Rocko's Hard Academy
Part 4 Goes Live,

Anal Darling 2, DP Bandits, Hooked
Up Hot Shots, Double Anal Addiction,

Sloppy Anal Babe,
Young Butt Sex Nymphos.

Anal, everything is anal,

Anal Depraved.

I don't got to watch it,
you know, but, yeah,

I sometimes do see a little
sometimes things I have to question.

This is the head office of porn
production company Evil Angel.

When the company started out
30 years ago, it broke new ground...

..making explicit content with
a focus on anal sex.

But as porn has exploded across the
internet, the boundaries have

been pushed further and further.

Today, you'll find this
kind of porn everywhere.

It's industry standard.

My name is Adam Grayson.

I'm the Chief Financial Officer
of Evil Angel.

I don't take what we do for
a living all that seriously.

I mean, we are in the
pants-around-ankles
masturbation business.

So this is our content team.

The wandering souls who have to
watch porn all day, every day.

MUSIC: GOD SAVE THE QUEEN

That's God Save The Queen.

Well, I did that for you.

This was given to us by... Given to
me by an Evil Angel super fan

as an example of his thanks for all
the fine service that we provide.

I have to review probably close
to 80%

of everything that comes
through our doors.

It's a lot, a rough guess would be

anywhere from, like, two to six
hours of content a day.

I've been here 11 years now.

There are now 103 Evil Angel movies
being viewed right now

or being downloaded as we speak.

So, October 1st we have
Anal Investigation.

That is an interesting title.

Evil Angels owner
is John Stagliano.

Anal Gaping Nurses.

I haven't heard of that
title before.

He created a type of porn that came
to define the company.

In 1994, or maybe
it was January of '95,

AVN came up with a name

for this first-person, POV kind of
thing that I was doing in Buttman.

And they called it Gonzo...

Yes, more, more.
Bend over just a little bit more.

..which they took from what was used

to describe Hunter Thompson's
writing,

where he would interview
a person or go to Las Vegas

with that person or something
and he would talk about

his personal reactions to the person
and he would be part of the story.

Can you, can you take that off?

Is that possible?

This amateur point-of-view style
is what dominates porn today.

Can I touch?

What's this?

This is where all the real magic
happens, all the ones and zeros,

this is all the video library just
storing a lot of video.

This is the heart of the monster,
if you will.

It's about a half a petabyte,
maybe a little more.

600 terabyte, something like that.
Petabyte is 1024 terabytes,

so more than half a petabyte,
I believe, at this point.

That's a lot of porn.

It's a lot of porn.

It would take you about five
solid months to watch

all of Evil Angel's content,

but it's minuscule if you compare it
to the world's biggest free site,

Pornhub.

The content uploaded to Pornhub
in five months,

would take you 48 years to watch.

Tracy, you watch... Would you watch
porn on your own quite a lot?

Yeah, if we go on either
of our phones,

if you go onto, like, Safari,

it says the most viewed things
that you look at.

And mine's Pornhub and
yours is that... Yeah.

Every time you touch your phone,
that's... You are kind of associated

with like a dog and a bone, like,
they hear the food,

and you start salivating, like,
every time you touch your phone,

you're like, "This is what brings
me pleasure," and it's hard to

then get into bed with your phone in
your hand and not then look at porn.

So when you first looked
at online porn,

do you remember what kind
of sex you were seeing?

Yeah, so I remember the video,
I can tell you...

I couldn't tell you the name of
the actor... You know the video?!

..but I remember the video
straight up

and this is the most interesting
thing was the fact

that when I was watching it,
it was actually an anal video.

I didn't know that it was anal,
to me that was normal so it's...

What do you mean you didn't
know it? What do you mean by that?

You were confused
by what you were seeing?

I wasn't...
I wouldn't say I was confused,

I just thought that was sex,
so like to me like I didn't realise

he had it in her arse pretty much
like I thought that was...

Normal.

Yeah, I didn't think it
was like, you know,

but, yeah,
I thought that was sex.

Fallon is our photo editor,

she's in charge of selecting
imagery for everything.

So, she gets to look at photos
all day, until her eyes bleed.

I'm choosing hardcore photographs,

a set of five, to represent scenes
and I'm picking whatever

is closest to the camera, whatever
looks the most obscene,

and I have to think like a guy, as
to like what would they want to see

immediately to judge, "This is a
scene worth buying and downloading."

Trying to predict our tastes or
even influence them

is at the heart of the internet
porn industry.

What you might not realise is that
when you visit big free porn sites,

they keep a very close eye
on what you search for,

what you click on and even
the point you skipped to in a video.

Then they use artificial
intelligence and clever algorithms

to offer you new videos based
on what they think you might like.

It's a bit like online shopping.

Retailers typically feed
your purchase history

into a recommendations algorithm.

So if you have just bought a bottle
of suntan lotion,

they might try and sell
you a new bikini.

Porn is no different.

The masses of customer data
collected by the free site

is also fed back to producers

so they can make more
of what's popular

and that can be surprising.

So with millions of eyeballs
on internet porn every day,

it makes you wonder

who's really making the choice
about what porn we watch?

Us or them?

Six months into her porn career,
Gia is heading to a shoot with

one of Evil Angel's
most-prolific directors.

I am going to Jonni Darkko's
apartment to do anal.

We'll take pictures,
we'll maybe do a tease probably,

and then we'll just
get into the sex.

This is only I think my
third anal scene this month,

that's what Evil Angels are about.

That's great, twist the butt to me
a little more.

Right there, right there,
right there. Good.

Good, beautiful,
they look beautiful.

Now just nice and...

There we go.
Beautiful. Good.

Jonni Darkko shoots and performs
in his videos,

which he himself describes
as extreme.

Nice and easy, there you go.

Now bring both knees up
a little bit more,

there you go.

Gia is 19,

Jonni is 53.

Now lean back and grab your bootie.

What is this for, Jonni?

It's a movie called I Love Anal.

We will see how crazy it gets.

That's a nice little move
there, girl.

Following your hands, I love it.

Good. Come up to your face,
turn around and find me, boom.

Nice.

Good, perfect.

Go warm up and take this upstairs.

If you guys want to shoot
a little bit upstairs,

you're cool, you can do that, too,
but we're going to start soon,

probably in the next half an hour.
Grab that.

Cool, everything good? Yeah.

Grab your shoes.

Come upstairs and we can kind of...

It's kind of a little better
up here.

Plus the damn cat ain't up here.

So, Jonni, can you tell me
what is actually going to
happen in the scene?

We are going to
shoot a boy-girl anal scene.

Nothing... I mean, we'll just kind
of keep it simple,

but some of it's POV,
so it's point of view, you know?

So people can get an idea of what
it's like to look down at that

and that and the whole thing.

If you guys want to shoot
a little bit of that, you can.

We will catch you later on.

One of the big trends in
the porn industry

is to show women looking shocked
and maybe sometimes scared...

..but I personally like to add
in photos,

like this one of her smiling,

cos me personally I would like
to see at least one image

out of five where the female is
actually enjoying herself

and not scared.

I have been here since
March 4th.

It's been a very eye-opening
experience...

..in many, many ways.

Because a lot of this is really
hardcore, really obscene sex.

It was clear Fallon had more to say,

but the open-plan office was making
things a little difficult for her.

Most of us spend no more than ten
minutes on a single visit

to the world's biggest porn site.

But for some, minutes can soon
turn into hours.

How often would you use porn now?

I'd probably say recently,

a lot, like...

..five times a week maybe.

I'd probably sometimes two
times a day,

up to maybe easily probably
a minimum five times a week.

It's probably got to the point where
you are literally spending

an hour or an hour and a half
to find that perfect video,

because you've seen so many, you've
seen them all and it's now boring.

This programme contains strong
language, nudity, adult content
and graphic discussion about the
pornography industry and sex

It's hard to go without it.

Just like, for example, sometimes
you go on holiday.

You can't get porn on the phone,

because some countries I have been
in, you just can't find it anywhere.

When you're in Korea, it's really
difficult. Because it's blocked.

But it is, if you're in Thailand,
you can't access porn on your phone.

Yeah, if you're not connected.

So where do you think it becomes
something that you're in control of,

or...or porn on the internet is
sort of in control of you?

I think it is in control of us.

Hey, guys.

Hi.

All right, love?

Yeah.

Hey.

You all right, baby?

Yeah. Had a good day?

Yeah.

Hey, darling, hey.

What have you got,
what have you got?

You guys have been through quite
a lot.

Yeah. Would you say you're
happier now?

BABY CRIES
Hey, sh, sh, sh...

Yeah.

Our marriage definitely,

yeah, best it's ever been,

especially the last the last year or
so. I think the good thing is

that everything that we went
through,

because we've come out of it and
there's freedom now, I think it's

actually drawn us in closer,
hasn't it?

Yeah, yeah.

So, I would probably
say that we're closer now

than we've ever been before,
even before all this happened.

I think we're definitely tighter
than we've ever been.

I mean, Lydia, is it fair to say
Rob's a recovering porn addict?

Recovered - I would say, yeah,
so he's not...

He was in a period of recovering,
I guess,

but I would say recovered now.

You know, I haven't watched
pornography now for as long as

I can remember, so I'd say that
we are,

I am recovered, not recovering.

What did it look like on a daily
basis when you were in the throes

of porn addiction?

So, in its worst, on a bad day,
it could be two or three hours

of bingeing, feasting on this
buffet of two-minute videos,

just constantly diving into it. But
I was trying to stop at all times,

because I really don't want to
hurt her,

whether it's the man or the woman,

the other one does feel
betrayed, mostly.

Did you feel betrayed, Lydia?

Yeah, cos it's not me.

He's finding comfort in
someone else, um, yeah.

What's the matter?
BABY CRIES

Did it make you feel less?

Yeah, it makes you feel like you're
not enough.

I mean, it's hard
because obviously...

Her dummy's over there, by
the way.

..I've had three kids in quite a
small space of time,

and obviously that does affect you.
It changes your body,

it changes your emotions, your
hormones, everything.

So, I felt like it's partly my fault

because I wasn't giving him what he
needed.

Rob, when you were at your most
extreme with watching porn,

would you ever try and make excuses
to find a time to go and watch it?

Um, I remember times where, say, I'd
be driving around

quoting jobs for my business.

You're a painter and decorator?

Yeah, I run a decorating company,
and I would find myself coming home

from that quote and then kind of
feeling that urge

and knowing Lydia will be home in
about an hour from the school run,

so if I get home quickly now...
I mean, this is like a year and

a half ago, but I would put my foot
down to get home quickly, so I could

have that time and that freedom,
if you like, to be able to just

view porn at my leisure and feast on
the opportunity of that pornography.

Do you think that some of the things
that you want to do

are influenced by what you've seen
in porn?

Yeah, because you learn new things
on porn, so, like, there have

been some stuff that obviously
I wouldn't have a clue about

and then I've seen, like, a porn
video, and I was like,

"Oh, that looks good." Obviously
that influences you

to try different things.

There's the thought of
being forceful,

so, like, for example, you might
just see a guy might throw

himself on a girl, and she might
like it, or he does stuff like

controls her sort of in a really
aggressive way. I mean, I like when

I'm watching porn, like slapping and
choking, it's quite a norm.

I think it is quite a norm, like,
cos it happens in porn all the time.

Yeah. And I think girls pick up on
it as well,

and I think maybe when girls watch
porn, you always see the girl

enjoying it and liking it, so it's
definitely something that's big.

Now we're out of the office, what
do you really think of the photos

that you're editing?

They're fucking disgusting.

They are abhorrent.

And a lot of these photographs,
you can tell just by looking

at a female performer's eyes,

who's enjoying it and who's not.

You can tell the ones that are
empowered by it,

they're like, "Fuck yeah, this
is my life, this is... I own this.

"This is my body, and I can do
whatever I want with it."

And then there's other girls that
unfortunately just,

even some guys that look like,
"What the fuck am I doing here?"

Or, "I really need to pay rent."

I've always been a huge fan of
pornography all the way back

to college, which was part of the
reason why I was so intrigued

to work for Evil Angel and the
porn industry

because I felt like it would be
celebrating life.

I took these photographs
a couple of years ago.

They were a friend of a friend.

I just wanted to capture the
authenticity of their lovemaking.

It was very nice. Probably sounds
strange to most people, but

it was very freeing and I thought,
you know, "I can definitely see

"myself doing this for a living."

I never watched degrading porn.
I never sought that out.

I didn't really know it existed.

I knew it existed, I just didn't
know how bad it was.

That particular genre of porn tells
today's youth

that sex is only to be enjoyed by
the man.

He's supposed to cum in my face,
he's supposed to slap me

and manhandle me and this is how we
should expect to be treated.

I don't think that this type
of pornography should be produced.

Oh, yeah,
you've got to do this one, too.

Give me that, give me that.

Hold on, let me kill this light
that's blasting my fucking retina.

Thank you. Burning my fucking
eyeball out.

How did it go?

Awesome.

SHE LAUGHS
Here we go. Bye, sweetpea.

Bye, thank you. Awesome work.

Thank you.

Gia grew up in a churchgoing
family.

She left her hometown in Ohio to
come to LA.

She's been signed to one of the
industry's top agents

and is already earning between
$4,000-$6,000 a week.

She's shot almost 100 scenes.

Now, you've done so many.

Yeah. Does it feel like just kind of
a pretty normal day's work.

Yeah, it was a normal day's work.

It was pretty good. I put, um, these
little, like, white balls

in my butt today, and I actually
haven't done that before.

So, that was fun.

They were like ball pit balls, like,
when you jump into like a ball pit.

They're quite big.

I think they're a little smaller.

I don't know. It was like...

I mean, a lot of people would think
that that's quite sort of crazy.

Like, so...

..no, I don't think it's crazy.

It might be a little, like, taboo,
like, not everyone's doing it.

But...

Does that then, like, feed into your
personal life?

Yeah, like, I feel...

Like, does porn sex and non-porn
sex sort of...?

..intertwine, yeah. I feel like my
sexuality is just, like, so,

so much broader.

Like, it's just porn has opened...
Actually doing porn has opened up so

many, like, sexual doors for me that
I didn't even know that...

Or lines that I didn't even know
that I wanted to cross.

Like, yeah, definitely.

When I first got in the business, it
was, like, people who came to

LA to be an actor or this or that

and kind of got waylaid

and kind of fell into the business.

But now, with the advent of
the internet,

it's more you can see girls...

..desire to be in porn.

That's their goal, they research it,
they watch it.

They're not falling into it.
That is, you know,

what they aspire to do.

For me, I like to sit down
and talk to them

and I want to know besides that
they're business-minded,

I want to know that they're
perverts.

Because I want them to be
doing this because

it's what they really like to do,
because they will last much longer.

But when I talk to her, you know,
"I'll do double vag,

"I'll do ass-to-mouth,
I'll do DP ATM,

"I'll do, you know, cum swapping,"
all this and all that.

And if a girl, and I'm like, "Have
you done porn before?"

She's like, "No, I just turned 18."

In school, as soon as I hit puberty,
I was immediately, like, labelled

a whore, and cos I had this big butt
and like guys would literally

just walk up to me in the hallway
and just like smack it or grab it.

And, like, I had just so much
anxiety, I didn't know how to handle

that, so I just accepted that I was
a whore, like, in eighth grade

because that's what everyone said.

So, watching porn during that time
made me feel like

I wasn't alone and it made me feel
like it wasn't necessarily wrong

to have sexual desires and it wasn't
necessarily wrong to have sex.

I really hated myself for the
longest time

because, like, I wanted sex all
the time.

And that was wrong.

Being in porn, I just fit in,
and everyone else, like,

has the same like sexual
desires and urges that I have,

so it's kind of nice to be
around that.

It's almost as if porn has given Gia
a way to own her sexuality,

to reclaim it from the school kids
who used to taunt her.

For now, at least, she's in a world
where she feels accepted.

This programme contains strong
language, nudity, adult content

and graphic discussion about
the pornography industry and sex.

I'm trying to think... I remember
the first time... Do you? Aw.

..we watched porn
but I remember because...

I remember because the ones
that you...

Because it was you that chose it.
That French couple? Yeah.

And it's a couple that basically...

Really hot. I just remember
propping the phone up,

watching porn
and then you were like...

Yeah, I think it literally was...

It was, like, on the pillow. Yeah.

You were on all fours and then I was
kind of, like, over the top,

behind, and then you, kind of,
got the view of the porn

for both of us, yeah. Yeah. It was
nice. On a tiny little phone.

For Freddy and Tracy,

watching porn together
has been a big part

of their relationship
since they met a year ago.

It's something they enjoy.

But porn can often be very secretive

and grow into something compulsive.

So, I had this on all my devices.

It's called Accountable2You

and it just looks like this icon
here on my phone.

So, I've got all my normal...

I've got Facebook on there,
got my Chelsea app

and then that Accountable2You,

it's on my phone but it's...

Lydia's my accountability partner.

So, for example, because...

If I was to type on
any of my devices

"porn" or even words
like "sext" or...

Even "addiction", anything.

"Addiction", it would flag up
a warning.

So, does that ping on your phone,
then, Lydia? Yeah.

And then do you look at it?

Yeah. So, it will say, like,
"questionable activity"

and that's on his phone. So, even,
like, voice searches,

if it can be questionable at all

it will flag something up
and send me an e-mail.

So you obviously felt
you needed that?

Yeah. Yeah.

What was that giving you,
by having that app?

This programme, for me, helped me
so that I remember

days in the recovering process,

where I would want to watch porn
and,

if I had access to porn
without my wife finding out,

I probably would have turned to it,
I would have given in.

Not being able to get away with it
in that moment

was, kind of,
the final ability to say, "No."

Rob would regularly spend
two or three hours

looking for the perfect video while
Lydia lay asleep up in bed.

But that perfect video didn't exist

because there was always
one more to watch.

There's disagreement as to
whether porn should be

classified as addictive.

What's not in doubt is that
there are many like Rob

whose porn use
has become compulsive.

For me, personally, pornography had
started when I was a teenager.

Erm, I went through... I then got
into a relationship where

I continued to use pornography and
it caused a lot of tension.

She'd find images on my phone,
erm, you know, videos.

It broke her inside
because she loved me

and she wanted to be the only woman
that...that I saw,

you know what I mean? In THAT way.

I remember porn that, you know,
you would see a certain porn

and it would be so arousing,
you know, like, they were all

arousing but then there's
that one video,

or something like that, you're like,

"Whoa, that just ticked every single
possible box. That woman looked

"the way... That act...
Like, everything."

And it's, kind of, like,
years later that still...

I mean, if I let myself now I could
go to those memories, I could.

I don't because I have
this thing in my head.

I feel like the thought's
like a dog on a lead

and I keep that... If that thought
tries to get out

I'm like, "Yank that."

I don't let it go anywhere now. No.

So, do you think, when you see
a guy, like, from that perspective

and there's a girl, do you think
that guy is you, then?

Well, yeah, I'd say that's how
you imagine it. OK.

So, if you're watching point of view
porn, you're imagining you're

the person who's in that situation.
That's how I would do it.

Yeah. So, you're thinking about
having sex with other women

when you're watching it?
No, of course not!

You are not thinking about it,

but you're almost trying to,
you know, you're thinking...

You're in that position?

Yeah, like, that's your scenario.

I just think I'm watching
other people having sex.

That's how I see porn. Yeah.
As opposed to, "I'm in the porn."

I don't think that's
my vagina. Yeah.

But you think that's your cock
when you're watching it?

I guess you do. Mm-hm. You're not
watching something

because you're wanting to sit
outside of a situation

and just look in and watch it. Yeah.

I would have thought everybody,
kind of, puts themselves

into that scenario as opposed to
sit back out of it and, kind of,

watches it from the fence.

Why is porn wrong?
Why is it harmful?

I mean, one of the things I feel,
the biggest issue is it

completely separates sex and love
and, ultimately,

if you build something just on that,

it becomes very empty,

it becomes very shallow
and unsatisfying

and basically what porn's doing is
selling people a lie and a fantasy.

For me, it got to a point
where I'm looking at women

and all I'm seeing is, you know,
boobs and bum,

that's all I'm seeing.

I'm not seeing the person
and that's what people

are looking at, you know? Yeah.

Women are just objects now.
Yeah. Now, today.

I have had partners before,
you know, previous life,

and we've watched porn together
because that partner

has said, "I want to."

Or has agreed and said it's fine and
then I even remember once seeing

the person months later. Major,
major row because, you know, like,

insecurities really kicked into her.

"Oh, you were thinking about
that porn

"when we were just having sex then."

So, although they're saying
it's fine, couples,

it is definitely putting in
somebody insecurity.

"I'm not enough."

I'd always had, like...

I'd been around people
that would say,

"I don't want you to look at porn
magazines, that's cheating."

Like, they would say
to their partners.

And I would think,
"How is it cheating when

"you're looking at other people?

"Like, you're not texting somebody
or seeing somebody or sleeping with

"somebody, that you are viewing
other couples."

Like, so, to me, I really struggled

to see how women wouldn't allow
their husbands to look at porn

and I thought,
"That's really weird."

But now we've had, like, this
revelation where he's like,

"I'm thinking about fucking all
these women." And I'm putting

myself in... I'm not thinking about
it, it's a subconscious feeling.

Yeah, but I didn't know you
viewed it like that.

I thought you were just being
a Peeping Tom also,

watching a couple having sex,
not you thinking,

"That woman's riding me."

Yeah, I never saw it as
a cheating thing,

but, actually, if you are then
fantasising about having sex

with multiple women, that probably
is something you shouldn't do.

But it wouldn't be cheating unless
something actually happened.

Only you know what
you're really thinking

when you look at porn.

But whether it's divisive or not,

while there's money to be made,

pornographers are going to
keep on making it.

"You are the owner of
Evil Angel Studio pornography.

"Your job before was male stripper
and porn actor,

"which was immoral and disgusting.

"Your company now, Evil Angel,
is an evil, bad production company.

"You, Mr John, are a sinner,
adulterer

"and sexually immoral person.

"Your product, porn sex, is full of
lust that makes Americans

"become pervert, nasty,
adulterer fornicators."

See, this is the guilt I have to
live with. It's horrible.

Let's see, right here. "Again,
sin always hurts in pornography,

"hurts marriage,
families and children."

Oh, God.

It is a controversial area,
you know?

Pornography.

Maybe he's right.

Where is your responsibility
as a producer and distributor?

So, there's a hubris involved

with thinking that you know what's

best for other people and, erm,

I try and be careful not to have

too much of that in my life.

Porn democratises pleasure.

Pornography is stuff for the masses
of people, for poor people,

for the average person to get
pleasure out of sex which

used to be only restricted to, like,
you know, King Henry VIII

and things like that,
people who could just

indulge in their sexual fantasies.

Now, the common man can

get off sexually and I think that's

a great thing about pornography.

The programme contains strong
language, nudity, adult content

and graphic discussion about the
pornography industry and sex.

You put saline solution, like,
in your eyes?

Yeah.

Is that a thing?

Yeah.

It's sterile so it, like, cleans.

And does it hurt?

No.

Gianna is 21.

She started her porn career
a few months after Gia.

They share the same agent.

So, what's...?
Tell me about your eye.

Oh, I have an eye infection
because a guy came in my eyes.

Today is the first day

that it hasn't been, like,
excruciating pain,

but, yeah, for, like, the past
four or five days

it's been, like...I couldn't open
my eyes in the morning.

Yeah, and when I look into bright
like it feels like I'm blind.

So, yeah, zero out of ten recommend
getting cum in your eye.

It's not a fun time.

Does that happen often?

To me it does, yeah,

because a lot of the cum shots are,
like, on your face,

so it's kind of hard to not get it
in your eye.

Does it happen to you as well?

Yeah, all the time, all the time.

It's just, like, it just has...

Hazardous. Yeah.

Have no aim.

I hate it.

You do? Mostly because
it gets in my eyes,

I don't really care if it's on the
rest of my face but... Oh, my God.

Can you request for that
not to be how it ends?

Yeah, but the probably
wouldn't like it.

They will probably just be like,
"Oh, well."

Cos they are paying us
for the scene,

like, they have a certain
way they want the scene to go, so.

This is a lovely
breakfast conversation.

Right.

Back in the '70s,
you would only really see

what has become known as the
money shot in a hardcore porn film -

but now almost every porn scene
finishes this way.

It's standard practice.

Can you just have
a look at this clip?

This is from, like,
an anti-porn campaigner,

and just tell us what you think?
It's about 40 seconds.

So what do
we see in mainstream porn?

Gagging, rough anal sex, ejaculation
on face, ATM, hair pulling

and spitting in her face.

So the standard porn scene.

One woman, three men.
She's being gagged.

She's being penetrated
orally, anally,

and then they all ejaculate on
her face.

What do you think
about what she's saying?

It's two different people's
opinions on it,

so the way she's, obviously,
she's saying that,

it sounds absolutely disgusting,

it sounds like the three men
are forcing a woman to do

whatever they want to do -
obviously dirty stuff as well,

but at the same time what she is not
saying,

the women could be the
one wanting that to happen,

so it's different ways
of viewing it.

Because you know... You know
it's porn, that's the thing,

it's not like, like -
I have never watched porn

and thought that I want to force -
like, do that,

like, unless someone
liked it or not,

because I know it's porn, I know
it's fake, I know it's acting,

like, it's just there - some
people like that, some people don't.

Gianna has continued working despite
the eye infection -

but Gia has been forced
to take some time out.

OK, I need to empty this.

I'm disgusting!

So the gynaecologist that I went to

told me that I can't have any
penetration for at least a month.

Basically, I tore my cervix,

and also my bladder was really
beat up, like, beaten up.

It was just, like, my insides
were just, like, beaten up, really.

From too much sex?

From, yeah, from too much porno sex.

Pretty much.

I went from having sex, like,
maybe once a week,

to having sex, like, a lot,

and just, like, really hard,
like, pounding, yeah,

probably also a lot of the dicks
were a lot bigger

than I've ever
had, like, in my life, so...

It sounds really painful.

It was very painful Yeah,
it's painful, it's really painful.

Are you going to do it long term?

I don't think so. I don't think so.

Did that sort of cross
your mind, like...?

Yeah, I guess - I mean, even
with like STDs and stuff, and STIs -

well, STIs, like chlamydia and
gonorrhoea can affect your body

in negative long term ways,
I guess, with fertility and stuff.

Is that quite scary?

Yeah, yeah, it is - but I mean,
I don't really want kids,

but then it is still, like,
pretty fucked up,

cos, like, it's inevitable,
it goes around.

CHATTER

Most people work in, like,
office buildings.

They have sad, sad lives.

I didn't want to be stuck in an
office for my whole life, you know?

This is just what I want to do.

Like, I can't see myself
doing anything else.

I have wanted to do porn since
I was in, like, seventh grade.

So it's just like something that
I've been so passionate about.

It's not really like fame.
Like, I'd rather have, like,

the money than the recognition,
probably, just because, like...

To survive and to live comfortably.

SHE LAUGHS

These girls can make
more money than a doctor,

without having to
go through the degree.

If they're smart, listen,
pay attention,

then they can make a good living
for quite a long time.

Within the internet age,

the shelf life of a porn actor
like Gia is uncertain.

It could be a matter of months,
or a few years if she's lucky...

..and millions of online viewers
are constantly searching

for the next new thing,
the next new Gia.

Fallon has already
walked away from porn.

The impact of looking at hardcore
content has proved too much.

She's now quit her job
with Evil Angel.

I...

I just felt like I met my limit.

In fact, I think I went
over my limit.

Rob is continuing to fight
the urge to watch porn.

Throughout his life,
he's struggled with addictions.

This battle has been intense,
and it went on for years.

And I would say, by far, the
hardest drug I ever had to get off

was pornography - by far.

I don't think porn just stops
the minute you stop looking at it.

It's deeply embedded
in the brain pattern.

There's another woman in the room,
you know?

So, you know, I call porn
"The other woman".

I'm going to give you your pep talk
here, in all sincerity.

We're just going to say
it's, like, your first scene,

and this is your, erm,
introductory shoot, OK?

So there's no pressure on it.

Yeah. It's a hot girl,
and you're going to fuck her.

Like, I'm serious.
Like, no pressure, OK?

All right. OK.

If I didn't think that I could
make $50,000-$60,000 a month,

if I didn't think I could do that,
I wouldn't be doing this.

Do not abdicate your responsibility
to educate on what sex is,

and therefore what porn is.

It's his first time.
How are you feeling?

I don't really know!
I'll let you know in an hour.
