Apart from being a way to relieve stress, build endurance and, you know, have a nice time, watching some pornography might be more than just an illicit, harmless way to explore your fantasies — it could actually inspire a career change.

That being said, believe it when we say that every guy — and yep, from your brother to your old high school coach — has thought to himself, "Hmm, I wonder what it's like to be a male porn star? And do I have what it takes to make it big?" (Pun intended.)

The long and the short of breaking into stardom with your pants off is this: It's a lot of hard work. Just like with any other performance-based career — there is a lot of competition, hurdles to overcome, names to drop and difficult times to get through before you make your way to the starring credits.

As porn actress Julia Ann explains, "Getting into the industry isn't as easy for men as it is for women. It has always been that the most common way men became actors was when they were dating female actresses and they wanted to shoot together."

So, short of dating a porn star, how do the big names actually make it happen? Here, we follow an adult porn star — the talented Ryan Driller — about how he broke into the industry, how he picked his name, his best advice and the honest truth on if he'd recommend his highly-sought- (and lusted-)after career to another guy.

Here's how to become a male porn star (and if you should want to be one):

  1. How A Real Porn Star Got His Start In The Industry
    For Driller, the experience was a bit of a checkered one. About a decade ago, he retired from what he called the traditional office gig, logging in 40 hours a week and pulling out a new button-up to wear Monday through Friday. But once he walked out of those corporate doors for the final time, he decided to embark on a new journey, that led down the polar-opposite path.

"I had learned that doing what makes me happy, will leave me much happier and successful. So, since I'd always thought about getting into porn, and had the time and means to do so, I started looking into getting into the industry," he said.

How did he break through? It wasn't easy: he attempted to apply to companies he knew from being a consumer (more on that later), but ultimately turned to Craigslist's 'Adult Gigs' to build his network of contacts. "From there, the producers and others on set, would share my information with other productions they were on, and I kept getting booked more and more," he explained.
