Also note that the original Reddit thread contains very graphic, disturbing content. Note that we can’t fully fact-check each story, but we’ll share some of the less grisly comments from that thread here and you can see for yourself. We already covered one disturbing response to the thread with over 17,000 upvotes from a former porn site programmer, but here, we’ll share a few more stories that other people added. Recently, an r/AskReddit thread asking “What are some dark secrets about the porn industry?” got almost 13,000 comments, and some of them are people unearthing their experiences or someone they know’s experiences with porn that are honestly concerning. The reality is, the average person knows about the porn industry from a perspective that’s sexier and more glamorous than true-to-life. It seems like it would be pretty basic and straightforward, right? Most people think they have a general idea of what goes on in the porn industry-who the performers are, what they look like, and what kinds of things they do when the camera’s on.
