A lot of models I work with get asked eventually. The gay porn market is expanding exponentially is seems, and now with the "straight guy gay porn" niche developing it looks like it will be around for a long time.

After looking at your port, I can see why they'd think you're into that.

Only 5 images with a shirt and the poses strike me as an attempt to be erotic.

Good luck.

Hmm, good point, I suppose I should specify that in my bio, I guess I just assumed people wouldn't go, "hey, purple haired asian, lets cast him in porn"

Attempt to be erotic? Damn, I must be losing my touch :-) but there is a difference between art and smut, the line might be more blurry for some, but I feel the erotic work I do to be on the artsy side...I've had shoots offered by photographers who claimed they wanted erotic art, or art nude, but after looking at their portfolio or hearing what they wanted, I decided that it was smut, and not art....those jobs I do not accept.

I've been asked to do porn, though not gay porn lol, several times. I do not see why, I look 12, my photos are all very wholesome, it's very insulting to me and makes me feel hideous when someone asks me to do porn, especially low class fetish porn.

What exactly is your goal or modeling interests?  The shirtless, skirt shots would certainly give someone the idea to, at the least, ask you if you would be interested in doing some "gay" porn.  Maybe change the direction of your portfolio, and as stated earlier, definitely post what type of work you will or won't do in your bio.  I'm sure that would but a  halt to some of the "invitations". smile Good luck!

As a person who has a port. almost entirely consisting of erotic nudes, I take offense to this. Regardless of whether someone is male or female, I do not think that his pictures are 'asking' for people to make him porn offers. They are more artistic. However, I do think that specifying that he does not do porn is a good suggestion.

Also, Layne, people in porn like innocent looking young guys, and guys who are unique looking. I am surprised that you got offers mainly for straight porn...

However, I think most people in modelling do get porn offers. I have gotten hundreds in the 2 years I have been modelling. Often, these are mass  mailings, and I do not take it personally. A few times, they are questions directed at me, and I just write back that I am not interested.

That would be why. A lot of men like very young looking girls. Sorry to tell you that, but it is true. As a petite young looking girl, you will get offers of porn. Do not take them seriously.

As for fetish porn, I am assuming you have never seen any. anything involving bondage cannot show penetration...I believe partially because a tied up woman who is gagged on video can claim pretty easily she was raped...

The lowest class porn is definitely the mainstream porn.

True.  Nothing inherently suspicious about teddy bears per se.  That is until you throw in a topless grown man, in leather pants affectionately fondling it spoon style from behind.

Nobody ever has to ask me to do Porn...I'm more than happy to do it out of sheer self-motivation.  As for gay Porn...well, I'm always happy when I'm doing it.

"Straight guy gay porn" is an emerging niche that involoves shooting heterosexual themed adult entertainment, but shot with a homosexual interest. The scenes are typically guy/girl but the camera work follows the guy more than the girl.

I was the first couple times, but then it got old...sort of like that person at the bar that comes on to you, but doesen't get the hint and keeps doing it. I know it sounds odd, but it bugs me that people confuse sexuality with sex...

If you're being asked to do porn on this site, let a moderator know who is doing the asking, what they asked, and we'll take them for a walk.

It's BECAUSE you look 12 and wholesome.  That's very popular.  It's the fantasy of despoiling innocence.

I've been offered to do porn more times then I can count. I dont have a thing against porn but with STD's you never know what ANYONE may have in that business. Plus with the pay people have offered me it's not worth it. I can make more doing art nude pictures.

Please inform any of the moderators if the solicitor is on Model Mayhem and you were solicited for that kind of work through MM!

We have a very strict no-pornography rule and do not tolerate this market on MM.

When you contact any of the moderators, please supply the MM# of that profile, so that we can check it out.

ive been offered tickle and feet porn, both of which are far more disgusting than "mainstream porn" because theyre freking abnormal and creepy

the only penetration porn i have been offered was on myspace with some chick who runs a hardcore porn site and has two kids.

i got asked to do it a few times with my bodypainting, but I don't want to limit my field of work. I love artsy creative stuff, i don't mind pinup and some fetish stuff. but I kinda have my own style with my work. I try to make it more of an art. 

I can see where they were going. I remember seeing a penthouse or something once where the people were painted up like aliens and robots and doing stuff, but I think I prefer to do the cutesy stuff, pinup, high fashion.
