Summary

Lotus Lain is a mother, writer, pornstar, and activist. Is the adult industry racist? Why does the term “interracial” so often just refer to “Black-guy-on-white-girl” for many porn companies? Is it racist when non-Black women hold out for their first “IR scene,” charging a premium for their 1st time fucking a Black man on-camera? (Yes.) Do production companies that capitalize on the Black male image (while almost entirely dismissing Black women) need to be canceled? Or does cancel culture just stunt growth? Do we need to abolish terms like “BBC” or “IR” completely? Is it possible that the lack of them would ultimately hurt Black performers? Does porn inform trends in society’s sexual preferences, or is it the other way around? Should race-play in porn be allowed to exist? How can we ensure we are always being ethical, while avoiding kink-shaming? Is most porn marketed toward the white gaze? And why does the world so badly want to see sex workers as victims? Also... didn’t “cock” used to mean… pussy?

0:38.0	The black performers experience in porn is something I always actually thought I kind of maybe had a small
0:46.3	understanding of at least very ignorantly as an Asian performer as a person of color I thought that maybe it's kind of like oh it's it's the same for all of us And while there's most definitely racism at play against all people of color in porn,
1:09.0	we need to address right now how the black performers are being treated and branded in our
1:15.2	industry. Our guest today is Lotus Lane, who is an activist, a writer, a mother, and a porn star. I asked her to come on the show to speak on the
1:27.4	black experience in porn and open our eyes to the open our eyes further to the injustice that's going on.
1:36.2	Um, and also to educate us on how we can better the industry moving forward.
1:42.0	This was an incredibly eye-opening conversation for me. I'm determined
1:49.4	to make it the first of many. Yeah and I hope you enjoy.

2:03.0	Oh yeah.
2:05.0	Which one of those came first?
2:08.0	Okay I guess I always had a sort of an activist spirit within me, but literally all of the things
2:19.5	came after becoming a porn star.
2:22.3	So that was one of the things that helped make a lot of my other dreams
