Question
Hi Charles,
I figured I ask you this one because of your performer credentials. We are a fairly new company but have a couple of shoots under our belts now. We have had an issue with two of our male performers being unable to... perform. They either cant get it up at all or they get it up but cant keep it up. Obviously I am not using those guys anymore but it is a problem I can see happening in the future, and here in AUS it is hard to find guys with adult film experience. My question is this- what the hell do I do when I come across this problem again? Do you just keep on going and going and going until they eventually get hard? (i tried this, an hour of having his dick sucked did nothing and the girl ended up with a very sore jaw). I am told Cialis is common in the gay film industry, is it used much in straight film in the US? What do you guys do when this happens? So far I only have one guy I know I can rely on but I dont want to have to use the same guy every time nor do I want to fly him in for every new guys first shoot to have him on back up. Is there another way?
cheers,

Answer
Hey,

Yeah there is no one magic solution for your problem. If someone uses ED drugs they are bound to get used to that...sort of a bulid up a tolerance or develop an immunity to whatever your feeding him. The main point of the matter is...rest, rest, more rest then work.

I know of too many guys that just dont give a fuck and party the night before a shoot. Where is your head going to be? Not at work.

So your best bet would be to babysit...have him stay over at your place the night before...then you know hes rested. Its like a soldier or athlete...some people can perform well under stress...some just aint cut out for it.
