Why does it seem ok for a male webmaster or affiliate rep to get drunk, show skin, suck boobs, fuck anything that shows interest, etc..... and he is considered cool or "the man" but if a female webmaster or affiliate rep does the same she is considered a skank?

Does that change your perception of the company if it is a male or female rep you deal with? Not in my eyes... how can a male affiliate rep that gets drunk and fucks anything help me convert better than a female that doesn't?

The shows are about having some fun and doing some business. We all spend a lot of time behind a damn screen and need a release.

We all can get out of control.... I know I did in Vegas during the Hawg's poker party.... thanks to Lens and Eric bringing me Cognac... I was trashed and make no excuse to anyone, and apologized to those involved for my condition.

I have read too many times where a male has gotten out of control and he is considered cool....but if it was a female, she is considered a skank. I know both men and women in this industry that drink and don't drink at all, but what they do at a convention doesn't change what I think about them, I treat them for who they are and what they can do to make me more money.

We all have our moments. If they did something I considered unacceptable, I would take it up with them before deciding not to deal/talk/do business with them. The boards are a great place but not for one on one problems IMO.

I am not pointing any fingers but just a general perception from the threads I have read.

IMO men are bigger sluts than women cause they feel the need to feed the ego and be accepted by their peers.

Me ..... I don't care what people think cause I can look in the mirror and be happy with what I see.
