here are a few answers I have used in the passed and they seemed to help appease some people.

Q: Porn objectifies women.
A: Yes, it absolutly does. Guys are buying porn because the girls are sexy and they want to watch them have sex. But Victoria Secret objectifies women, The Miss America Pagent objectifies women, any TV show that has a woman on it simply because she is hot objectifies women. The music industry does too. If Brittney Spears were 5foot2 and 190 lbs when she first came out, she wouldn't have sold any records. The reality is that these women know it is happening to them and they enter into this knowing it.

Q: It takes advantage or exploits women.
A: Yep, it does in a way. But unlike just about every industry in the world the women actually make much much more money than the guys do. Also you can't tell me that someone slaving over a shitty job for minumum wage while the company that he works for is making million is not being exploited. It is exploitation, but at least there is good compensation for it.

Q: The women are preyed up during a rough point in their lives.
A: I'm not about to say that there are not creeps in the industry that trick women into getting into this bizz by lying to them, but every content producer I know is up front about what they are going to do, how much they will make and what the pics/movies will be used for. If you then decide to still go through with it, it is your choice, nobody is holding a gun to your head.

I simply tell people that I take existing pics and movies and make "sampler" sites with them. Basically giving people some free samples and enticing them to buy from a paysite and if they buy I earn a commision. It's no different than someone giving out food samples at a store. That the product is porn makes no difference. In the end you shouldn't have to justify it to any chick you are going to go out with. explain what you do, be honest, and explain why it is not bad. Educate them because a lot of people who are very anti-porn really don't know shit about porn. If they are still against it, then you have to let them go and move on. If this is a biz you have decided to be in, then you will have to find people to be in your life that are okay with it. If having to explain it and the troubles you are having finding some to accept it bother you that much, maybe this is no the biz for you.
