Lana Rhoades said that she is now 'against' porn, after having quit the industry several years ago. The former adult star reflected upon her career candidly during a podcast appearance earlier this week. This was one of her very first interviews since becoming a mother. The 25-year-old welcomed her son Milo back in January, and is keeping the identity of the father quiet for now. During the recent episode of YouTuber Bradley Martyn's Raw Talk podcast, Rhoades spoke a bit about how damaging the sex work industry can be. "I just didnt have a great experience [in porn] and I dont think that its great for other women, or even men," Rhoades said. "I myself am against pornography now from my own experiences," she added. Theres different levels to it obviously, its mostly hardcore pornography that I have an issue with," she continued. Despite her position, she maintained that she believes, "everyone can do what they want." "I just dont think that theyre making the best decision for themselves going into that," she explained.

Rhoades continued, I dont think that having sexual relations with people that you hardly know is good for your mental health or your heart." Rhoades made the jump away from porn to an influencer after having met someone who showed just how much she could be making outside of the industry. I had never shot content with him but he was telling me 'Im making $15,000 (about 12,000) to do an Instagram post for this YouTube ad', and I was like, 'well Im getting paid $1,200 (roughly 950) to do this scene, how is this fair?' I sort of realised that I was being taken advantage of doing sex work for an amount that people were getting paid way more just to post a picture on Instagram."

Cool. I support being against the porn industry.

>"how is this fair?"

It can also be a bit more enjoyable defending on your current mood. Right now I'm single and am less interested in being reminded I'm not having sex by watching girls get blasted with dick

Watching a girl just strip naked is better for my mental health. I assume this is true for plenty of porn consumers

Well good for her, but the sex with heart thing seems a lil bit condescending. I watch porn, but Im guessing a good chunk of performers do it just cause its good money. If they find a way to make even more money in a safer way then even better for them.
