True, but than we still have Piter to give some more time. Budapest also didnt grow to the European porn capital in just 2-3 years!
I know both cities from many trips and con only support what alexxx says about Budapest. Go there and have a look yourself. It`s amazing!
But porn production also got too expensive in Budapest - especially for these crisis times.
Travelling Piter on the other hand you are really amazed by the beauty of those Russian girls and the peanuts some goodies cost!
Budapest is 100% legal and liberal, but getting silicon and posh.
St. Peterburg has only 50-80% porn legality (laws), the biz is still too little professional, but the talent pool is really huge and the prices are much more producer-friendly. This said, claiming Russian girls were so poor they needed to do porn is bullshit. There are many job options and please dont forget that sex in Russia is also a way of rebellion and freedom for these teenagers. Society finally lives up to a money and beauty cult, where performing in a few films and than ending up marrying a small oligarch is nothing wrong.
