Psychology of Porn Actors
by dwb
Famed researcher Dr. Robert Hare stated in his 1993 book Without Conscience: The Disturbing World of the Psychopaths Among Us that many, if not most people in the adult film industry are clinical psychopaths (he also included prisons, stock markets, and even politics as areas with above normal psychopath populations).
He describes psychopaths as “intraspecies predators who use charm, manipulation, intimidation, and violence to control others and to satisfy their own selfish needs. Lacking in conscience and in feelings for others, they cold-bloodedly take what they want and do as they please, violating social norms and expectations without the slightest sense of guilt or regret.”
According to Hare, people in the adult film industry, including producers, frequently exhibit traits common to psychopaths, including superficial charm, constant need for stimulation and instant gratification, sexual promiscuity, lack of anxiety, lack of remorse or guilt, short term marriages, inability to sustain relationships, impulsivity, irresponsibility, and substance abuse.
Yup… that pretty much hits the nail on the head.
