The Home For Retired Porn Stars


I couldn't help but repeat 'Should Be in Bed, he's Rambling's' comment on my last post. It made me laugh out loud. You may recall that I was drawing a parallel between the attempts of the porn industry to make themselves seem more innocuous and the world of greyhound racing with its by-product of unwanted greyhounds needing re-homing.

'Should Be' wrote the following:

'I kinda like the idea of rehoming aged pornstsrs though, purely as some sort of moral duty for the entertainment they have given before the teeth sagged and the implants fell out. It can be such a clinical decision when selecting a rescue dog: not that one - too big: Nope - he'd eat the cat: she doesn't match the curtains.... How would one decide which retiree of the pornographic industry met the unique domestic requirements of each household?
Well she's still housetrained but we can't have Miss Leopardskin 1973, we'd never find her on the sofa...
'

I laughed almost as much as when I discovered that some aged (male) porn stars actually find work as 'stunt-cocks' to carry out the ejaculatory act when the worn out real stars can't manage it.

But as for what really happens to retired porn stars, I wonder whether they wouldn't find a welcome home at the Gimcrack Hospital under the gentle ministrations of Nurse Myra. Or perhaps there are already homes for them, perhaps there is one near you subtly disguised as a common or garden retirement home...only it's not bingo they play in the afternoons.

What would it be called though? St Jude is the patron saint of lost causes, or what about good old St Nicholas, the patron saint of sex workers?

In any case you can click here if you can rehome one....err, sorry a greyhound I mean.
