Would we all prefer there was no shaving? Of course, not gonna happen. Don't like it, don't use sponsors, but don't try to say someone else is wrong for promoting sponsors who may shave. It's how alot of people make their living.

And truly, one person saying 'what do you expect, he's an adult webmaster' does not make for a general view on things. You can't take an isolated incident and apply it to all of us and expect us to answer to you why we feel that way when in fact we don't.
I agree with you pretty much across the board here. I would clarify one thing, though... I am not trying to show everyone that I am a moral guy. Rather, I am trying to re-enforce my belief that there are a lot of good people in this industry. When I come across a scuzzbag, I ask people what they thing, because when I hear that others also think he is a scuzzbag, it reaffirms my faith in people.

Other than that, I agree with you. I made the mistake of not being clear that for the most part, I am talking about an annoying minority of people who use the strange "its adult so its okay" logic. The way you put it helped clear that up for me.
