What Happens After Porn Ends? Netflix Explores the Lives of Retired Porn Actors



There is a time limit on how long a person can work in the porn industry, and in this documentary, the reality of life after porn for several of the industry's top stars forms the basis of a fascinating story about second acts.




After Porn Ends Netflix



Netflix's most popular documentary right now may be Tiger King, but the streaming site is full of illuminating docs on a wide variety of subjects, including sex. If you've ever wondered what life is truly like for porn stars or how the sex trade affects women across the world, Netflix has a number of documentaries that address these subjects. These docs aren't designed to be titillating: they're an honest look at the culture of sex and the business surrounding it. Some of these films aren't easy to watch, but the stories they tell are fascinating, raw, and, above all, honest.\n\u2014 Additional reporting by Lauren Harano\n\n\n Related:\n\n \n \n \n \n\n Netflix Has a Whole Selection of Documentaries About Women, and Yes, We're Watching Them All\n \n \n","id":44927662,"type":"gallery","photo_source":"Image Source: Everett Collection","permalink":"https:\/\/www.popsugar.com\/entertainment\/Documentaries-About-Sex-Netflix-44927662","canonical":"https:\/\/www.popsugar.com\/entertainment\/Documentaries-About-Sex-Netflix-44927662","share_text":"These Documentaries on Netflix Explore the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Parts of Sex","use_tall_image":false,"omit_from_countdown":false,"caption_num":false,"slide_tags":"NetflixMoviesDocumentariesSexy TVNetflix Roundup","is_cover":true},"image":"https:\/\/media1.popsugar-assets.com\/files\/thumbor\/9gQT6pCA9WfHiaSEVG0uvyD0pOY\/fit-in\/1024x1024\/filters:format_auto-!!-:strip_icc-!!-\/2020\/03\/30\/921\/n\/1922283\/a678e3905e825f7882a2b3.38313097_MCDAUAN_EC00\/i\/Audrie-Daisy.jpg","share_image":"https:\/\/media1.popsugar-assets.com\/files\/thumbor\/p1Sd1NY9QPWIcuQ4zDlWeswWKOU\/fit-in\/2048xorig\/filters:format_auto-!!-:strip_icc-!!-\/2020\/03\/30\/921\/n\/1922283\/a678e3905e825f7882a2b3.38313097_MCDAUAN_EC00\/i\/Audrie-Daisy.jpg","title":"Audrie & Daisy","intro_text":false,"body":"Though it was released over four years ago, this film is just as topical as ever.
