Amateur porn is a big black cat, with soft fur, walking across a bed where two people, maybe more, happen to be fucking.

Amateur porn is a mom who giggles as she masturbates while the hubby focuses the camera while trying to stroke his cock and stoke her ego at the same time.

Amateur porn is a lifestyle, open, swinging, swapping, or whatever term fits depending on which decade you discovered sex existed outside the confines of marriage.

Amateur porn is a record of how good you were when you were turned on so much that you didn?t care that you were being recorded.

Amateur porn is Saturday night and a six pack and a video camera with enough juice in the batteries to keep the party going.

Amateur porn can be amateur even though you make money like a pro.

Amateur porn is a couple of college kids that have learned enough to know that great sex can be calculated, converted, and coalesced into good beer money.

Amateur porn is a stripper that had a rough week and needs to pay the bills.

Amateur porn is a message at the end of a Homegrown Video that says ?you can earn up to $20 per minute when you send us your homemade sex videos?

Right On

Homemade, amateur and "pro-am" are all different levels of the same thing...

I make homemade amateur porn; perhaps more seriously / technically at times than do other "hobbyists" ? and I've profited from it too ? but it's very much "amateur" material.

Folks like Jake and Allie I'd classify as "pro-am" because they do it for a living and exhibit a high level of excellence in their operation ? but they're not Vivid...

A lot of affiliate programs market "amateur" sites that are really "solo girl" sites using a niche type they hope will be good for sales. If you have a dozen sites in various niches, etc. there's nothing "amateur" about it.

Then again, a girl looking to start her own site can capitalize on the experience and traffic of an established site / program, so it isn't always a "bad" thing.

I like the real homemade stuff myself ? and not "pretend" homemade content
