Great photo, totally un-wankable.

st0ned, while lighting is important, I'd tell you to focus more on learning how to capture a sexy image with whatever gear you currently have, or the basic gear you can afford. If your goal is to sell porn, all the gear in the world will not help you if you don't know how to shoot something a guy can beat off to. Too many people lose track of this. Everything we all do, is just for some dude to beat off to. Nothing more.

Your Cannon Rebel will be a fine cam to start with. Learn how to shoot on that and if you want to upgrade later, do so. But focus on the subject first, and don't forget why you are doing it.
