Part 7/8:
Reflecting on how adult entertainment has changed throughout her career, Nina acknowledges the impact of the internet. The digital age has both democratized access to pornography and transformed its consumption. While new performers are able to enter the industry more easily than in the past, Nina cautions that this accessibility can lead to a disconnect regarding the permanence of on-screen work.
Nina estimates that around 20% of adult film performers live alternative sexual lifestyles outside of their work, which speaks to an intriguing dissonance between on-screen personas and off-screen realities. Through her experience, she highlights the dichotomy of how public perceptions often clash with performers' everyday lives.
