WWW- [spartandaily.com]- I was trying to refrain from adding to the Spartan Daily’s current outburst of feminism, but it’s Women’s History Month, so why not keep the party going?
The top two professions that women make more money than men are: the adult entertainment industry and high fashion modeling. Susana Gallardo, my women’s studies professor informed students during lecture in February.
Arguably, I wouldn’t put this revelation past her.
It’s no secret that a woman’s sexuality can sell just about anything, even TrimSpa baby! (May Anna Nicole Smith rest in peace, once they decide on a destination for her corpse …)
And wasn’t it rapper Kanye West, who said during an interview for Essence Magazine in 2006, good thing for multi-ethnic girls, or else who would we get to dance in our music videos?
It is widely debatable, but the porn industry falls somewhere between a $1 billion and $14 billion industry.
In an article by Pamela White for Boulder Weekly, called “A Matter of Taste,” White interviewed Julian Rios a male porn star who makes $100,000 a year.
Rios said that predominantly the adult entertainment industry’s audience is male, but the women sell the product and make the money.
Hoover’s, a company that provides business information online reported that Jenna Jameson, a popular figure in the adult entertainment industry, made $30 million in sales in 2005 for her entertainment management company, Club Jenna.
Rios said that although men do most of the work in the industry, women make more money.
Rios also added that he’s had chlamydia twice and gonorrhea once.
