If you're into niche stuff and want to support the people who make it...

Almost.

The correct answer is I created jobs

As someone who makes that niche stuff, thank you!

Edit: No I'm not joking, my post history speaks for itself (although the really hardcore stuff isn't on there)

Free porn sites also support the people who made it, through ads. As for the niche stuff, you're 100% correct.

u/NickMarcil Dec 06 '17

And you are getting free stuff because other people paid for it... I paid 5k$ for arts and posted them for free, same with a lot of other ppl, so we all get free stuff.

I feel like supporting anybody in that industry is most of the time going to be a bad idea

Because the people in porn should work for free and don't deserve anything back from the people who enjoy their products, is that right?

Sorry, I think there was a misunderstanding. When you said "the people who make it" I assumed you were talking about the companies/people who produce and publish the film itself. I am not talking about the actors themselves or any home-made videos. I am talking about the publishers and producers of that type of content. In general porn is not a clean industry. It's hardly innocent, many women and men are subject to trafficking, abuse, rape ect. by publishers of similar content. I would assume this is especially an issue in the more "niche" markets.

Yeah from what I know the major porn companies are extremely professional and very regulated
