Corbin Fisher to Offer Models Health Care, 401(k) Plans, More

Thanks to their new benefits, studs like Hayden here can now afford an an Ivy League diploma and a prostate exam from Dr. Smooth. Corbin Fisher's Vice President, Brian Dunlap said, "The contributions our models make to the success of our company have always been tremendous," (or at least consistently around 7 inches). "[We] wanted to do all we could to further expand upon how we express our appreciation for all they do," especially for how they continually rim and deep-throat each other in weight rooms.
Today, Corbin Fisher announced that they will offer their exclusive performers full health benefits, 401(k) plans and tuition reimbursement, in addition to their pay rates. The health benefits include full medical, dental, vision and life insurance coverage.
"In this particular election year, there has been a great deal of attention paid to health care and how difficult it can be for employees to get it," Corbin Fisher VP of Operations Brian Dunlap told XBIZ. "That is what originally brought this plan to mind, and made us think of what a valuable offering it could be to our models. Many would not otherwise have health insurance were it not for our providing it."
CF's plans are sure to have several effects on the porn community at large. The following are just a few possibilities:
1) "Professional porn stars" used to be those who made a living as studio "exclusives," but CF's new benefits continue to blur the line between pro and amateur. Keep in mind, most CF models are 18-23 and possibly students. Students aren't usually considered "professional" at anything other than kegstands. But CF's investment will help them establish a core set of loyal performers "who become fixtures of the Corbin Fisher brand," as Dunlap said. This means that (at least in the short term) the men will be treated like professionals and may even be expected to do more for CF in turn (more scenes, promotional bits, etc.).
2) Another part of Corbin Fisher's reasoning involves retention: better benefits may attract and keep models with them longer. Also, it will make the website more competitive. Any guy with a hard-on considering doing gay porn may find himself competing with a lot of other applicants who want CF over other "amateur" sites because of their benefits and job security. As a result, CF will have their pick from a larger pool of hot models (not that their previous models have been lacking... no, not at all). But as a better and more selective employer, CF will basically become the Ivy League of gay porn.
3) A ripple effect could pressures other studios and porn sites to be more equitable to their models and offer better benefits and working conditions overall. This would not only do a lot to legitimize what has long been stigmatized as a "dirty business," but could even one day lead to a porn star union. Sound ridiculous? Prostitutes around the world have already unionized in the name of cleaner, safer sex industry.
4) Specifically, Corbin Fisher said it would help pay for a percentage of tuition costs for its student models. However, Graduates from The School of Hard Cocks may find that they're left holding their diploma in one hand, and their dicks in the other as some of their future employers may disapprove of their porn star past (kinda like Subway did with Kurt Wild).
No matter what happens, we commend Corbin Fisher for this monumental move forward and wish their models the best of fuck, er, we mean luck.

That is pretty fuckin' cool.
Is the guy in the doctor's outfit Corbin, himself?
I've never seen him, just heard his voice.
Applause! A standing ovation for Corbin Fisher Inc.!
Wow. This has always been my favorite site to subscribe to because of what goes on in front of the camera. Now I find out that what's going on behind the camera is just as great. Kudos to !
That's why I always kept my membership with CF even when the updates are not particularly good on rare occasions. They seem to have a more like a friendly business environment where the models are not just beautiful fuckable pieces of meat.
They normally feature models with personalities and don't just jump straight into the humping and toss him out when they are done. I know it's porn but it doesn't have to be completely impersonal. I know most here like to complain about CF keeping their exclusives employed but I think it' a good thing and they can contribute to more than the sex. I think it was probably Lucas' idea to add the ACM portion of the site (or maybe Dawson since he is so often featured there). I command them for that.
I think this is great, but let's face it most guys that choose to do porn do it for the CASH, and probably don't care about insurance or 401Ks. So the site that pays the most is where they'll go and know it's a good way to get the cash.
WoW ! very impressive ~ full marks to Corbin Fisher College of Highly Desirable men !!
An intelligent and progressive attitude = erotica/porn just got even better xx
FRATMEN.TV has been doing the (college fund and 401k) for 2 yrs now.
good to see CF joining the ranks of respectful adult companies..
