Hi gents and ladies, A user over on the NoFap reddit posted this slideshow from imgur of a few porn stars without makeup, and for me this really put things in perspective. I've linked to the comments section rather than the imgur page directly: http://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap/comments/23l2qd/trigger_warning_how_fake_porn_really_is_93/ I only know a few of these porn stars, truthfully, but some of you may recognize more. Don't worry, they're not naked. But it was incredible--and somewhat depressing--to see how the natural versions of these girls look almost completely different from how you would have seen them if you were watching them do their jobs. Truthfully speaking, some look just as beautiful without makeup and some just look hideous. They all look pretty "tired" to me, too, for reasons I can only speculate on. Ultimately though. for me the contrasts of their normal selves and their roles on screen are yet another reminder of the divide between the fantasies most of us have imprisoned ourselves in and the reality that we need to experience every day.
