A truer thing I've never read.. I think a lot of people end up in this business because in a lot of cases you can teach yourself, work from home, and you can start with relatively little cash (on the webmaster side of things) and actually make something with it. People are more willing to talk about things here because people are more accepting, in general. We tolerate the good with the bad because this is a diverse industry, but that's also what makes it SO FUCKING GREAT.
So what if people use hookers or escorts, they need to make money too. They aren't going to go away. At least they won't be shocked and appauled at our lifestyle. Exploit women? Fuck, 99.0% of the women are exploiting themselves... they have a natural resource, why the hell shouldn't they use it? Not like they don't get paid for it.
Hell, most ENJOY their job.
Just because Joe Bigshot the head of some big oil company can't sit down with his board of directors and say something like "Yeah, so I was fucking my wife's ass while watching a porno the other night and..." doesn't mean he is any more or less moralistic than anyone. His peers are simply not accepting of the reality. He might be beating his wife and hiring underage hookers, but does his job legitimize that because there's more "morally correct" people in his industry?
Just to be myself and not pretend to be something I'm not, that's worth being in this business. I'm not going to let a few assholes ruin the fact that I love my job. Hell, I've met more assholes doing shipping and recieving and accounting than I have here. Difference is, these ones identify themselves RIGHT off the bat and don't skulk around, simply because they can. I waste less time getting to ignoring them that way.
