Yes as a whole our industry is thought of as immoral and there is 2 reasons for this. For one many are! Second is because of others opinions and their personal morals.
Your comments on your daughter are very understandable. Just like our founding fathers allowed for changes in the constitution based on not knowing were time would lead society so our morals change as time, technology and life experiences affect it.
Not only is it possible to have sliding morals I think it is almost required. Anytime you set something in stone and make it an absolute you are limiting your ability to move with time.
The key is to remember a few key things.
Don't publish things you don't feel right publishing or that you could not show to your family (kids excluded).
Don't do things to customers you would not want done to yourself.
I don't think this is a huge weight to bear but just these small things could make a huge difference in the health and prosperity of our industry.

Well, I think we can still act professional in a vice industry.
While I agree with your point on publishing (to a point), the problem with that again, is we all have this different line in the moral sand. I'm more of a mindset of what would I be comfortable defending in a court of law if I had to (especially since half of my family is made of up of very religious Mormons).
Do you think that our industry exists because we offer a vice or a taboo? There will always be envelope pushers and there will always be those that play it safe. How much personal morality is based upon who much we have to spend on a legal defense fund.
The biggest problems with establishing some type of industry moral boundary is we can often get ourselves boxed into a corner or society's morals change or something else effects the industry.
I'm alwasy fascinated by the discussion of moral, ethics and boundaries in this industry. After having been in it nearly 10 years, I find that not as much has changed as people think.
