Thats weird. When I lived in copenhagen, adult entertainment in all its variances was widely accepted, talked about, and open for public knowledge. I met many people in pubs and such there who "claimed" to be in the industry(whether they were or not, who knows) 
I suppose it depends on how you announce your business choice. If you mention that you take photos/are a webmaster/internet entrepreneur, chances are they wont bat an eyelash. If you blatantly say, yah i video chicks gettin' banged and blowin' off guys then I put it on the internet...that can be a bit of a turnoff.
