“I was the first woman to put out taboo
MILF content on the internet.”
Veteran performer Rachel Steele is approaching the 20-year mark, having started
performing in 2006. “I got started quite by accident,” she recalls. “I was playing around
with my boyfriend at the time, in the backyard by the pool in the backyard. It was in
Florida, it was a hot day, we were having drinks, playing and swimming and having a
good time. I went in the house and put on a white tank top that said LIFEGUARD with
a little red X. I jumped in the pool and then jumped out, I flipped my hair and I said,
‘Take some pictures of me, I’m like Bo Derek in 10.”
A week or so later, the boyfriend asked if he could enter her pictures in a website
hotwife contest with a $600 prize. “I said yes, and I won the contest. And I thought that
was really nice, because I was working hard to make that kind of money. So I went
down the rabbit hole, started webcamming and gave myself a stage name. In Florida
there were a lot of fetish producers and I got hired to do fetish shoots. When I saw
how they were doing it and what it took to do it, I wanted to do it myself and I started
my own company, Red MILF Productions. I’ve been doing it ever since.”
Starting a fetish webcam site in the early 2000s was “a little crazy, a little dangerous...
but it was all that we had. I was taking out ads on Craigslist for men to work with. I
didn’t have any interest in mainstream porn, I wanted to do my own productions,
my own way: be in charge of everything, so I could control the kind of content I was
putting out. And I was the first woman to put out taboo MILF content on the internet.
Family fantasies. It came from a fan who wrote in and requested a custom video, a
stepmother/stepson scene. It shot up right to the top on Clips4Sale and stayed in first
place for over a decade.
“We didn’t have social media. We had cell phones, but they were nothing like they
are today. We put out ads on Backpage or Craigslist saying, ‘If you’re attracted to older
women and you’re a younger man, this age range, this height and weight, contact me
for film production.’ I’d go to FetishCon and meet people, write their phone numbers
down and call them to set up things. It was very different.”
