True...and at the same time it also comes down to - who has the time to do it anyways?
Let's face it, many of us put in long hours tending to our own respective business affairs - production, webmastering, updating, marketing and advertising, etc. At the end of the day, there's seldom time left over to put on an activist hat and go do something about promoting the positive aspects of the industry.
And that's assuming one can even get past the notion of apathy and futility.
I've done a few pro-porn activist stunts in the past (letter-writing and ongoing confrontations with local religious freaks) - but it was purely from the perspective of my own personal and business self-interest...not because I felt any sort of 'higher calling' to stand up as an industry spokesperson.
