This website will get too big, I think we should seperate them out. I will work on that. --Jlaro 10:46, 23 Apr 2004 (UTC)

I don't this this division into heterosexual/homosexual actors makes much sense - especially for the girl, since most will do girl-on-girl scenes anyway.

Name
If no one objects, I will move this to "List of porn stars", along with for the following reasons:
 * List of female porn stars
 * List of lesbian porn stars
 * List of male porn stars
 * List of gay porn stars
 * 1) "porn star" is the common name, which Wikipedia encourages,
 * 2) "erotic actors" is a euphemism, which Wikipedia discourages, and
 * 3) it is POV to say that they are "actors".  Let's face it: "erotic actors" is a peacock term.

They're not really actors, and it's not erotica we're talking about. The most commonly used term is "porn", so let's stick with that.

The question of many porn stars being "gay for pay" only is addressed in the first paragraph of the gay porn stars list which notes that this is a list of people who appear in "gay porn", not that they are gay stars. I'll make this change in the coming week or so. Zeromacnoo 21:59, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)


 * Does appearance in a single scene of a porn movie make one a "porn star"? I realize that that is is the common term, but it seems like a wild exaggeration to apply the term to everyone who appears, no matter how small their part. -Will Beback 02:44, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Where do we put names of transexual porn stars, especially when they have appeared on screen both before and after genital surgical reassignment? Stachman 15:29, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Huge Change
This is easily changable, but there is a category which is more completely regarding this. It is Category:Lists of porn stars. I'm going to change this to a redirect page. Feel free to revert my changes.--Torourkeus 19:33, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
