So what did you tell your relatives you´re doing exactly? - GoFuckYourself.com

xtrasyn · 05-23-2006, 08:24 AM

I was thinking about this because last week I went to this posh wedding and my GF was worked up about what I would tell people I´m doing...
I mean there´s just some occasions where the words ´Oh, I´m an online pimp´ or ´Oh, I´m in to porn, as in, like really into porn, I mean I make money selling imagery of shaved pussy etc.´ just won´t cut the deal.

For these occasions, I am in to ´dedicated user videoconferencing´ and on occasion a ´web traffic analist´.

So what the fuck do you do?

CuriousToyBoy · 05-23-2006, 08:29 AM

I tell them EXACTLY.

My mother follows my travels and antics thru Fubar exclusively.

She loves it.

;-)

JOELK · 05-23-2006, 08:32 AM

I do web hosting. I'm not ashamed of what i do but i just don't want to offend anyone

Phoenix · 05-23-2006, 08:34 AM

i now tell them i only shoot tranny porn...and sometimes i get to stand in

StuartD · 05-23-2006, 08:37 AM

All of my relatives and my fiancee's relatives know exactly what I do. And why not? I do nothing wrong.

HushMoney · 05-23-2006, 08:38 AM

I tell them that I own 3 porn companies. I think they like the checks I send home every month.

Fetish Gimp · 05-23-2006, 08:38 AM

I tell them I sell crack and guns to preschoolers. I then tell them I'm kidding, after that selling online porn doesn't seem like such a big deal.

MarkMan · 05-23-2006, 08:39 AM

lol
well .. tell the true.. just not all of it.

you are a SEO Specialist .. you work in marketing..

oh yaa.. and a traffic trader.. you work in trading traffic

Bike · 05-23-2006, 08:40 AM

Why wouldn't you tell them the truth? It's not like you're doing anything illegal. Fuck them if they don't like your job.

Why · 05-23-2006, 08:56 AM

dont do it if your unwilling to tell your friends and family about it.... except of course grandma. she doesnt need to know

Thomas1007 · 05-23-2006, 10:23 AM

yup all my friends/family know I sell porn.
We arent breaking any laws so why not be truthful.

Magalie · 05-23-2006, 10:51 AM

I tell them exactly what I'm doing ! They really don't have any problem with it !

If I just don't want to get into details when I meet ramdom people and don't feel like answering 4168791 questions, I just say I work in e-publicity or something like that - depends on how I feel ...;)

Mediachick · 05-23-2006, 12:36 PM

Ive always told the ppl around me what I was doing from the beginning. For some reason, the only time I dont bother giving people details is when it is people I dont know or that I know I wont see anymore. I just dont wanna get into the whole explanation of it, it can be a hassle; especially if you're talking to some dude who has obvious interest in you and is a complete moron. (being a chick, that is)

So far nobody ever judged me for what I was doing because they could tell I had a head on my shoulders and had my stuff pretty well figured out. The rest I dont think is worth caring about what they think, unless it would put you in a trully embarrassing situation.

that's actually a pretty psychological attempt which might indeed work

babsy · 05-24-2006, 12:11 AM

I find when you're out and about, chatting up girls and so forth, telling them you work in porn sparks their interest. They act like they think it's gross, but there they are, standing around and asking questions. Back to the original question though, my folks know exactly what I do, and so does everyone else in the immediate family, but my Grandma doesn't. She is old and she wouldn't understand ;)

bdld · 05-24-2006, 12:29 AM

make something up and stick to it, use the same lines every time. whatever you do don't tell them what you do, people will think you're a creep.

I suppose that has even more impact than telling the dinner guests to fuck off and mind their own business.

rants · 05-24-2006, 04:31 AM

I don't tell them anything cause I don't talk to my relatives. Besides I hate nosy people. What I do is no one's damn business.

Barefootsies · 05-24-2006, 05:11 AM

I tell them I am in noneofya business

Seriously, friends and family know what I do, and have since I've been doing it. As for complete strangers, and those outside of the inner circle, it depends on who they are but some variant of...

-photography & web design
-consulting
-online marketing
-media company with it's finger in a lot of pies.

Not that I am ashamed either. However, I do not want to be badgered about all their "great ideas" they have since they've "always wanted to get into this bidness", or "do you get to fuck the hunnies", and "you must make phat dollas", followed with "dude we REALLY need to hang out brotha".

u-Bob · 05-24-2006, 05:14 AM

J. Falcon · 05-24-2006, 05:26 AM

I tell almost anyone who specifically asks me what I do. I get a real kick out of seeing the expression on their dumb faces

rants · 05-24-2006, 05:29 AM

Ok, to people I don't really know I say I'm CEO and president of my own company, yea I guess that's a bit pretentious since I work from home and have no employees, but it sounds pretty damn good. I love saying it.

All my close friends know what I do. They don't look down on me, they are envious because I make more than they do plus I don't have a boss. Even my religious friend, who's not like super religious cause she's really vain/superficial (that's why we probably get along) and dresses like a tramp is envious too, she is always saying she wishes she could stay home and make a lot of money but doesn't want to sell porn. I told her you don't HAVE to sell porn there's mainstream too but she can't sit in front of the pc all day...

Most people I know (girls and guys) cannot sit in front of the pc all day and are not dedicated enough to make it happen.

diesel · 05-24-2006, 05:37 AM

My relatives know well what I am doing, but in some cases when I dont want to give that info I call it E-commerce expert

CyberHustler · 05-24-2006, 09:06 AM

i tell them im a whore... a sig whore

E$_manager · 05-24-2006, 09:08 AM

but to the closest relatives you can always say the truth. Why not?

tony286 · 05-24-2006, 09:11 AM

Most of the people here arent really in porn, your internet marketing. To me if not your producing it, then your really not in it. I tell relatives multimedia their eyes glaze over next subject.

SilentKnight · 05-24-2006, 09:57 AM

My favorite line has always been,

"Don't tell my momma I'm a pornographer...she still thinks I'm a piano player in a whorehouse."

All my friends and relatives know I'm an adult photographer - I never hesitate to tell'em if they ask. Its a legal and honest living and I'm proud of our accomplishments over the years.

Fuck'em if it offends their sensibilities in any way. I don't sit in judgement of what they do with their lives.

SmokeyTheBear · 05-24-2006, 01:36 PM

tell them you design plastic tampons applicators..

Nobody will ask another question ( trust me )

Babagirls · 05-24-2006, 01:39 PM

I always say "all kinds of things: build websites and webpages, do site/product reviews, a little advertising & marketing, and some light design". usually at that point, they're overwhelmed and just say "ahh..cool." :-P

Edman18 · 05-24-2006, 01:43 PM

i just say... that i'm in the advertising Business ....

VicD · 05-24-2006, 01:54 PM

I told them that i'am selling porn to be exact

NemesiS876 · 05-24-2006, 01:55 PM

Just tell him that you are a student ...

chase · 05-24-2006, 02:25 PM

I'm a thread killer. *grin*

Seriously though, my immediate relatives know I market porn. They don't like it, but they respect that fact that I am supporting my family alone and I have been able to work from home so I can keep from having to put my kids in daycare.

Strangers, though, or people at my kids' schools, I will tell I am in marketing.

It had it´s allowed maximum 120x60 size and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR, we know. But because we deleted the sig and you forgot on what server your 120x60 image was stored and how it was named, you are now forced to use this text.
