Ok, this is something I've always wondered. In Western porn(not including the legendary and equally scary Ron Jeremy) a lot of porn actors are either ripped, hung like a horse or can cum like there's no tomorrow(Peter North anyone?) It's easy for a civilian to see why these guys are chosen and paid to do what they do. He's got a 6-pack and a 10" dick..I don't..fair enough.

But in JAV's(and I've watched hundreds if not thousands) a lot of the times, the male actors are the thinnest, ugliest, most needle dicked sad excuse of a man I've seen in my life yet they somehow have been blessed to appear in a JAV and get to fuck, suck and be sucked by such drop dead gorgeous goddesses like Sora Aoi, Rio(Tina Yuzuki), Akira Yoshisawa, Risa Tsukino, Saori Hara, etc etc etc. My question then is how the bloody hell do guys get picked/hired to appear in JAV's??? How do these scrawny, ugly, balding, fat guys get to screw the sweetest most beautiful women and pussies in the world??.....if it sounds like I'm pissed it's just because I'm jealous as all hell!


Does anyone know the answer to this? Do you have to have connections? Do they get paid? What about those bukkake videos where they have a hundred guys line up and take turns cumming on an AV's actresses face. Where do they get these guys? Just pull them off the street? Put an ad in the newspaper?  I would totally volunteer for this job!

From what I have been told the Yakuza or the mafias in Japan have a lot of influence in the porn industries. So usually the men in the videos are well connected and know people to get into the business.

The newest trend in Japan is Elder porn. Since there is a large population of Older people this niche type of porn is very popular.

i have a thing for older women but would not want to watch an old dude nail one.............looks pretty gross IMO.

I've seen a couple of JAV's where the theme is a young beautiful AV starlet getting it on with an old guy(s). It's like watching a car-crash. It's a horrendous site and you know you shouldn't watch it but you find you just can't turn away either

Again, I'm insanely jealous as all hell at the old guy. I wonder if they have insurance in case he has a heart attack while filming!

I don't think there are many openings as most of the actors are always the same. I have heard of some former workers on set (cameramen, grips, soundmen, etc) getting a shot when the male AV star is having problems

no health test for those guys? there's an insane amount of bareback Jap porns I'd expect some sort of industry standard screening too. I suppose they can't just grab anyone for that!

I maybe what you can called a connoisseur of Japanese AV and I think the popular opinion that all Japanese male AV actors are fat,ugly, small and can't fuck if their lives depend on it is a complete myth probably have it origin from the early days of JAV, when the earlier bunch of actors really aren't up to scratch. Of course it is all relative, ie, we are comparing them to Japanese standard. I can find numerous examples but it will take a while to search, I'll see if I got the time to do so.

Yes, I can agree with you that in recent years SOME of the male actors in JAV are better looking and more well endowed. Still no comparison to western porn male actors but definitely an improvement. I guess just watching all those videos of guys who I would consider unworthy to screw these gorgeous girls always gave me a false sense of hope. if they can do it, then maybe one day I can! lol

There's a guy named Hung Lo that stars in American porn.  Basically he teamed up with some people to start a porn site where the male actors are all Asian.  It's called shelovesasiancock.

Then there's the more macho Keni Styles.  He is a pretty good looking guy (I'm saying this in a non homosexual way.  Just have to throw that out there).  He get's  to bang a lot of the top pornstars.  In interviews, he says that the pornstars would fuck him just for the sake of it because they've never tried an asian guy.  So he get's lots of tang on the side.

that's very cool to hear that male asian pornstars are fighting back! in the past, they've been getting the short stick when it comes to getting roles in western porn(pun intended)

yeah, it's hard to talk about a male pornstar in any sort of non homosexual way but I hear ya! You always hear about western guys wanting to try different types of asian girls but almost never about western girls wanting to try asian guys. hopefully this is a trend that will continue to grow!

Ken Starbuck, Japanese-American, was a known male porn star from the 70s and 80s.

I do agree, the quality of male "acting" in JAV product has increased over the last few years.

Hung is not hung so lo btw   

Why do I think the male actors in jav are actually the ones fronting the cash to produce these movies?  They're probably some rich guys that wants to fuck hot chicks and film it for there own collection and if they can turn a profit, even better!  Or is this me dreaming of winning the lotto and how I would share the wealth! =P

I've had similar thoughts in the past too. Particularly after looking at the appearance of some of these guys, I would imagine that the only way they would be able to have sex with these gorgeous women would be by paying themselves(rather than being paid). Hell, if I had the opportunity to do so, I would do it in a heartbeat!

xxxxxx forget it....never mind!

I am sure you lads have seen the JP classic, 500 person sex. There were a lot of very average men (and women) in that movie, and it seemed that the selection criteria were very low. Not sure how they recruited people for that. Anyone know anything about the film?

I asked a Japanese friend this exact question once and he told me that some of them actually pay quite big sums of cash to perform in these videos. You might also notice a lot of camera flashesgoing off almost constantly during the videos. The guys taking these photos also pay for the privilege and my friend said most Japanese porno videos are completely paid for even before they're released for sale! He had no idea what either category had to pay or what the female stars get paid. There are some Japanese gals that I would pay quite a hefty sum to put my dick in!

I haven't seen that one. I tend to avoid the JAV's with large numbers of people in them(ie. huge gangbangs) as this tends to result in(as you say) a lot of VERY average looking people having sex with each other which just doesn't do it for me. I'd much rather watch a video dedicated to one very hot AV actress and get to see her and her only in all of the different scenes.

thanks for the reply. that's exactly what I would have imagined it being as

take that hollywood! an entirely self-financing movie where your actors are paying to perform!

I would be curious to know exactly how large these sums of cash would be. I completely agree with you and would myself pay a quite hefty sum to screw any one of a number of JAV idols!

Well I guess you can still pay to have sex with a JAV idol without doing it in front of the crew and baring your ass to the pubic. Most of them are available for some side jobs.

Sure, but if you do it in a JAV, you'll be able to have it on high definition DVD for repeated future viewings

I know that if I ever had the chance to have sex with any of these beautiful JAV starlets, I'd certainly want a record for the historical archive As I get older I start to forget things more easily so I need all the help I can get remembering.

Just curious, when you say "most of them are available", what have you heard about who's available and at what cost?
