Sex sells. But who gets the commission?
As a porn agent, I did. Plus I got the girls, sixty inch flat screen TV’s, the girls, acid reflux, soul crushing guilt, the girls, anxiety, Chlamydia, two girls at a time, a beach pad, more girls, depression, a few good friends, hilarious stories and, quite possibly, redemption.
My name is Frank Prather, aka Bad Ass Frank, and I’m a former manager for adult actresses.
I went from being on the cusp of a career as a television comedy writer, to owning a successful boutique adult talent agency, to my eventual awakening and retirement from the business. My story is about my three years in the industry, my relationships with the girls, and the daily internal struggle with my own morality. Plus it details an intimate look at the lives, personalities and psychologies of some of my clients, who eventually came to be my friends. All with my "holy shit no way!" sense of humor. It’s compelling, sordid, outrageous and hilarious all at once. It’s a story not about "porn", but about people. Nobody tells a story like I do…nobody.
Every two weeks I’ll be posting excerpts from the upcoming book to be release in Feb 2009. You’ve never seen the industry from this POV, er, perspective.

Smart. Hot. Funny. Any Questions?
Pimpin’ Ain’t Easy… when you’re stupid.
“Beach pad”? Last I saw he was living in a little one bedroom apt. in West Hollywood with a back entrance and his “office” in the kitchen.
Maybe this book will sell as well as Nick East’s.
and that’s everything you aspire to, steal.
btw did you short the dow yesterday, steal, you’d nearly be able to afford a new trash can, possibly one with wheels.
hey jed, you never answered my question: how was i able to figure out you were retarded?
uhh?
instead you ignore this most vital question and alone continue to still think you are clever
sorry, i meant w. l.a.
steal, if you need to tell me something, go ahead, i know you’re used to taking orders and waiting for your turn to talk, but i’m a generous guy i’m always happy to listen and laugh, so let rip… i just hope it’s good, no doubt you’ve spent countless hours thinking this zinger up….
btw you never actually confirmed that you graduated from college, showing up to a few classes hardly counts
i’ve spent countless hours thinking of this zinger?
no you stupid, malicious fucking retard, this is the most basic of basic questions, which i’ve asked over and over, yet you have refused to answer… it does not take much time or mind to think of it:
>>>>how did i know you were retarded, jed?<<<<
fyi, i completed my junior status at CSULB, have one year to go, i went on the typical california 5 year plan to complete 4 years, but after 4 years i decided for various reasons to postpone graduation and enter the real world where my real education began, if i feel the need to finish i will, i still got all a’s in my speech, debate and political science classes
i’m glad i give you a purpose in life jed. if i actually am ‘inferior’ to you, as you feel the need to repeat over and over, what of it? why are you repeating yourself like other retards on this site?
if you’re such a superior retard, jed, learn this:
great people talk about ideas
mediocre people talk about events and other people
losers only talk negative shit about other people to compensate for the fact that they have nothing to offer except smelly assholes for mouths.
so in essence you dropped out of college, steal, to enter the rewarding industry of telemarketing? then when your call centre was outsourced to india you dropped further down the social totem pole and into sex work. spin it all you like, steal, but unless you’ve spent countless years traveling the world, working and integrating into other cultures, or perhaps starting a business (not with a stolen video camera) i fail to see what real education you have.
quitting college, working some dead end job before becoming a sex worker, and a fairly uninspiring one at that, hardly qualifies as a real education. tell me, where does germy steal’s university of hard knocks rate in a world ranking of educational institutions?
and just for clarification, regarding your pompous little finisher. great people don’t talk, they do, they take action. so keep yapping conspiracy theories with other burnouts, while drinking free refill coffee at starbucks, then run home to devour a few more nutjob blogs. just don’t think it makes you great, nor does it offer you a ‘real education.’
i can freely admit i’m not great, steal. still, i do alright for myself, but you on the other hand assume you are great and that’s the entertaining thing about you.
i’ll always look forward to the day your documentary hits the big time, you become a big star, you shoot the shit on real time with bill maher, become a UN ambassador and special adviser to the security counsel, it can’t be far away….
and that’s council, pardon me
gee whiz, that’s rather malicious to keep saying i stole a video camera, jed. do you actually believe this? i would take less offense to it coming from others who are part of playing out the joke for effect at this point, but in your case, it’s different… you have an undying obsession and a fire of hate that won’t burn out. i’m not sure what the cause or purpose of it is, reading too much shit by other retards on this site? yeah, maybe i’m just a loser like you say, if that be the case, whatever dude… please GET OVER IT ALREADY, YOU RETARD!! why must you find on a daily basis reasons to try to put me down? what does it do for you? … by golly, i do the best i can, i’ve had good moments, bad moments,
(insert sentimental music here) like anyone, but choose to look at just the negative, that’s your thing, that ain’t me… haven’t you made you point, over and over and over, ad nauseum? btw, i’m curious do you also richard jewel also terrorize the olympics? after all, don’t accusations equal facts in your short bus book? if you can provide any evidence i stole a video camera i will give you that camera or buy one of equal value which was stolen from jim powers. why do you keep repeating something that’s not true? why are you constantly trying to put me down? what is your purpose? i’m now going to see a psychiatrist because i’m being attacked by retards. i can’t take it. i’m gonna do a documentary called ‘when retards attack’ and we can ask you what purpose all this serves you. i probably have had more of an education that most porn people, but really, truly, so the fuck what, who gives a shit?, personally i found the majority of my 4 years a waste of time, i value my own self-education more than school which is one of the reasons i left, do i have to defend my life or explain it to you? that’s sad. woah is me. you still haven’t answered my question, how did i know you’re a retard? your obsession with me is retarded, your hatred is retarded and so is your logic. i know you think you’re clever the way you spend so much time putting words together but it doesn’t make the words carry any weight or worth. go find a constructive hobby. stop the hate. start representing retards are contributors to society no loser on the internet who have to anonymously attack people. ok i think i’ve said enough.
that should’ve read:
“start representing retards as contributors to society, not losers on the internet who have to anonymously attack people.” … i guess i am retarded too; to jed, sadly i must be a reflection of a part of him he hates, thus the hate, the projection… wow this is sad, i will try to cope
steal, you’re such a great investment, the 8 minutes i dedicate to you a day provide me so many laughs when you respond.
please, don’t ever stop responding to me, you rock!
actually steele, i’m going to apologise to you.
this site FUCKING SUCKS, it’s been like it for some time and coincidently for the majority of that time i’ve been hassling you. work it out.
i should have been pointing and laughing at kayden kross, but because this site is now so fucking worthless it couldn’t provide me with a lick of dirt on that. yet it can provide fucking lame interviews and soon to happen blogs from lying whores.
fuck you loftus, your lame site drove a wedge between myself and the great jeremy steele.
anyway i’m off to contact the sacbee, get kayden kross’ real name and post it over the internet.
as tranny fucker would say ‘good times’
I believe Jeremy Steele is a hero for our times, he doesn’t have too much, probably doesn’t want too much, either, he doesn’t want to put himself inside a box and work a shitty deadend 9 to 5 job and come home to a bitch of a wife and some fucking kids from hell, he doesn’t run around amok, cutting everybody’s throat to pay mortgage and credit card bills, he doesn’t trust anything his god forsaken government tells him, and he doesn’t change himself to be more or less acceptable, he just plays it his own way. Life has it’s ups and downs for him, just like for everybody else, but he’s still here, doing whatever he wants to do, and it’s all that matters. He reminds me of ‘Dude’ from the movie ‘The Great Lebowski’, if that guy was a hero, and so many people believed he was, so is Jeremy Steele.
Let the world goes down the gutter, all the dude needs, is a rug to tie the room together.
God bless you CSM. Your generous and perceptive comments are truly rays of light piercing through the dark grey clouds of misery filled cyber skies of lonely masturbater-haters. I must frame your quote and hang it on my wall. Aside from literally possessing 1000’s of LPs, books, CDs, DVDs, journals, my guitars, etc, you’re appraisal is pretty damn accurate.
As for you jed, I accept your apology and I think you should also apologize to Cindi Loftus. Whether or not you think this site is lame you should still be kind to your host. At least she’s not slanderous like the real Luke. Shitmouths are always welcome on XPT so you should stay there.
What almost makes me as happy as CSM’s comment is the fact that no one has anything to say about Dumb Ass Frank’s inane autobiography.
Did Frank use the word “morality”? The minute you get in adult you check that at the door…despite what Margold says. Porn’s all about the money, look at the trannyfucker, he marks his days on how many scenes he gets in a month…his goal is 15, Steele, you get 15 non Bukkake scenes in a Year?. Ever notice that trannyfucker is always too “tired” to go out, wonder if Phoneix Marie had a dick his energy level would rise up, or if his “mentor” had a thing going. Steele, where did you steal all that shit from? Or are you bunking in someone’s storage locker?
steal what larry? thx 4 the compliment if your disbelieving i write my own shit, as i think your implying, 15? doesn’t ‘trannyfucker’ complain if he doesn’t work at least 2 scenes per day? when did you fall of that horse, btw, larry?
btw, that book cover should have had frank being handed money from a lady from the unemployment line
not some banana peel that that monkey was eating
“I went from being on the cusp of a career as a television comedy writer”- yeah right, don’t you have to be funny to write comedy?
“owning a successful boutique adult talent agency” – boutique?
and what the hell is “holy shit no way!” sense of humor – sounds like an airhead to me
“Nobody tells a story like I do…nobody.” – glad to know that
oops- not from a girl who slipped from a banana peel
