J. C. Adams

J. C. Adams (born June 6, 1970) is an American author, magazine editor, and reporter whose work focuses on the gay male pornographic industry, and a gay pornographic film director.

Adams began syndicating his gay porn industry news column in March 2002. It began running on adult film Web sites such as NakedSword.com, but also on sites such as the mainstream GLBTQ portal site, OutinAmerica.com.

Adams did a great deal of freelance work for various gay porn studios during this time as well. He helped Sports and Recreation Video publish a print magazine, Inside Porn, from 2001 until it folded in 2003. And he did freelance publicity work for several gay porn studios, including All Worlds Video and MSR Videos.

He was hired by MSR Videos as a full-time publicist in November 2002. In 2003, he became a production manager for the studio. He left MSR Videos in October 2004 (the studio folded in January 2005 after the death of its founder and owner).

In 2004, Adams wrote an article for the peer-reviewed academic publication, Journal of Homosexuality. The article, "Sex Pigs: Why Porn is Like Sausage, or the Truth is That-Behind the Scenes-Porn Is not Very Sexy," discussed why adult film sex work is, in fact, work. The article was published as a chapter in the book Pornucopia: Eclectic Views on Gay Male Pornography, published by Haworth Press in 2005.

Adams has continued to work for the "Adam Gay Video Directory" since 1997.

The "home base" for Adams' column is currently GayPornTimes.com, a Web site which he also helps manage and edit.

The first film he managed for the studio, Big Boat, was released in January 2007.

Since 2003, Adams has been a regular guest on the "Derek and Romaine Show," hosted by Derek Hartley and Romaine Patterson, on SIRIUS OutQ Satellite Radio.
