Aren't morals merely a set of rules that we give ourselves to sleep better at night? Where do you stand? Is it possible to have morals and be in porn?
Do some people confuse morals with ethics?

Morality is what an individual considers to be right or wrong. All of us in this industry have decided that we have no problem with the morality of porn.
There are some people who have no problem with the morality of the liquor industry but would consider porn to be immoral. Some people want nothing to do with neither the porn nor the liquor industry.
There are differences in individual business practices about what is fair and what is not in every industry. Some have lines that they will not cross while others don't see any lines at all.
If someone lies, cheats or steals in order to obtain higher profits they will do that no matter what industry they are in.
I believe in the Golden Rule, not the one which states that who has the gold sets the rules, but the one that says treat others as you want to be treated. I also believe that whatever you do, it will eventually catch up to you. That may merely be wishful thinking, but it seems to come to pass quite often.
The main problem with those who see no lines is that they are more motivated by instant gratification rather than achieving long term benefits which causes instability in their industry.
