I understand this is an old post, but I conducted a small study on this topic for a paper and surprisingly discovered no correlation between engaging in pornography and premature death or suicide. I thoroughly examined various factors, including age, the age at which they began performing, the studios they worked with, and whether they retired (if applicable), as well as any known criminal charges, health issues, drug-related problems, sexual orientation (bisexual, straight, gay, or g4p), and other relevant details. Despite my extensive search, I couldn’t find any data that indicated being an adult performer increased the risk of developing mental health problems or engaging in criminal activity. While I acknowledge that it may be a contributing factor in some cases, my analysis revealed no significant impact despite how it appears.
