If I didn't already know you were a decent guy I might take that line the wrong way fyi ... read what I wrote again.

Both my daughters are athletic and in great shape however also both are far too intelligent to choose a "career" in porn.

I on the other hand AM FAR too ugly for porn! :p (damnit)
Yeah, you could read the "as far as I'M concerned" two ways. One being that you think they are beautiful, because you can't be objective ;)

I did know what you meant though and was just giving you shit :p

Don't have kids and probably won't but I wouldn't have a problem with it so long as it's just a side gig and they're going to school or have a career going. The athlete analogy is somewhat apt, physical condition is a perishable item and should be treated as such. I mean they're not likely to blow out a knee during an orgy or something but looks have a shelf life so plan accordingly.

Hell I'd totally do it myself but I'm past my prime for that sort of thing. If OF existed 15 years ago I'd probably have been on there and at least a few years closer to retirement as a result.

Do you think Linus Tech Tips just goofs off in front of the camera, "for fun"? No, he runs a profitable business, and employs support people, even though it's usually him on camera. (And now he's got some buddies too, doing vids for him.)
I think he did when he got started, and was still entertaining to watch. I haven't watched an LTT video in a couple years now.

I'd think for camming burn out would be a bigger risk than looks. Even ugly chicks do alright.

I suppose that could be true. I don't know how easy or hard it is to maintain marketability over the long haul though. Then outside factors like a career change or getting in a relationship would certainly influence decisions too.

Yeah, some of the girls I've talked to have said it definitely took a mental toll on them eventually. Everyone has a different threshold for that kind of thing, of course.
