Thus the few established studs are constantly pressured to work for comparably little fees.
And some of them dont even choose to work more than on one set per day, but they are booked for 2-3. Of course they could turn down those bookings, but who wants to come along as a lazy worker etc.
Another thing is with peers using injections tolerance to wait on set for natural stud has become lower. Shooting more wet is accelerating that additionally as you can imagine.
You're avoiding the key issue though of whether the studs need the additional scenes to make ends meet or are being greedy in taking every job that's available. Those are different things. You have this weird tone like the guys don't have a choice. "They are booked for 2-3". Can your boss do that? Put you down to work a weekend and then just tell you you're doing that? These guys have a choice. Why are they taking on so many scenes?
In western countries (e.g. UK) it is increasingly common for non-unionised employees to be bullied by employers into working extended hours without extra pay under heavy threat of losing their jobs. And it's getting harder to find alternative jobs in the economic recession.
But DAP-A is talking specifically about Russia today, where a limited pool of local male performers work in an underground (technically illegal) industry.
IDK what local pressures those performers are susceptible to, or what other employment opportunities they have.
Equally, if there is a limited resource you would expect employers to outbid each other for supply and normally prices would rise.
So obviously free market economics aren't working here. So I agree that other influences are at work.
IDK about the health risks of these penis injections, but it sounds crazy.
However we live in a world where every town contains boys injecting steroids, silicone and worse into their muscles and girls overdosing on injected lip plumpers, silicone fillers and discount boob jobs in doomed attempts to resemble photoshopped images of pneumatic [spam] influencers. And nobody is paying them to do such crazy unhealthy things.
So maybe we shouldn't be surprised by the choices of models who are trying to make a living.
