Interesting post over at Rollertrain about shopping for porn stars. I’d heard years ago that women in porn are often vanishingly petite in order to make their often average-sized male colleagues’ cocks look bigger. The post confirms this and goes a step beyond.

Most Adult video consumers don’t realize that female pornstars are freakishly petite people. Casting tiny women is a clever trick that makes erections look bigger. For years, I figured that pornstars typically shop in the Junior’s Section of most department stores. But after three hours of hunting for size zero’ s – three hours – all we found were the beginnings of varicose veins on my size eight old lady legs.

(Context: The model they’re shopping for is a size zero!)

A week later, I met up with the pornstar and handed her the various outfits that James and I had secured. She picked through them with her neatly manicured nails, trying on small tops and tiny bottoms. Nearly all of them fit. When she got to the denim skirt, she held it up to her waist. “What size is this?” she asks, her hair falling over her face.

“It’s a small,” I say.

She pulls out the garment tag and reads it. “This is for babies,” she scowls. She unbuttons the skirt, slides it on, and it fits.

Read her whole post here.

I read a week or two ago that 50% of adult women in North America are size 14 or larger. Once again, going 14 sizes smaller than average just to make men’s willies look bigger than average isn’t really doing much for our images of ourselves as defacto inadequate.
