Do your parents know you work in internet porn?
 

Out of respect for my poor mothers heart I have kept my mother at bay for 5 yrs now that I work for a Top producing hosting company in NYC called isprime in sales. LOL, I punished her enough thru out my 20's and did not have the heart and my dads comment back in 1999 "don't tell your fucking mother". :1orglaugh She is heading out to do some more humanitarian missions this summer so as long as she can explain her only good son left does something good then its all good in the hood. What she does not know won't hurt her. right? I never force anything out of anybody just provide my services in sales. So does that make me a porn salesman? Not a bad title for class clown 1986, in the mix!! :2 cents:

im a grown man it doesnt matter

They like this better than me being aquitted for murder and doing time for multiple counts of drug traffiking and several conspiracies involving extortion and money laundring

My entire family knows both sides of what I do... the modeling end and the webmaster end.

We see them often enough they see me working all the time and realize how much goes into it and they see the fruits of the labor :winkwink: so they are very supportive :thumbsup

3 years ago, my mom was laid off from a job she worked at for 25 years. I softened the blow of letting her know what I do by offering her to take charge of our customer support department, at a higher starting salary than she was making before.

She calls me a "cyber-pimp"

My parents know. They don't mind.

of course my parents know. and while they may not fully agree with it, they have said time and time again, that they can't argue with the money.

Yup. Sure do.

My dad was fine with it...my mother needed some explaining to :)

my parents know what i do, they dont know my sites and they dont know exactly what i do, they just know that it's adult related websites. it's pretty much never talked about tho, kinda like "dont ask dont tell" kinda thing

great story LS or should we start calling you cyber-pimp? lol

I've only been doing it for a year so not yet. I plan to tell them when it makes enough money that I quit the day job.

Yes I agree but after coming along so far from point a to y with that neck of the woods and I don't frown on the biz but her and her church group still see it as bad so what she does not know won't hurt her! Still working on Z. that has a zillion problems wrapped up in a nutshell.

I should just take my laptop to dinner this weekend and show her our new hot
site site we have just launched. TOUNGES AND TOYS ? BTW converts rather swell :thumbsup

mom was fine with it. started in college and wasn't bugging her for money. As long as I do nothing illegal she doesn't mind.

of course

i dont have parents i am a robot

My parents and brothers know. My grandparents, aunts, and uncles etc don't.

my entire family knows what I do. My family is open minded so they don't judge me for what I do.

Ransom time! :thumbsup

I don't think this is a big issue for EU webmasters. I asked my dad before venturing into this business if he thought I should go for it and both him and my mother said that if I could make a living out of it, why not.

On the other hand, I don't tell new people I meet, I just tell them a half truth saying I create web pages...

hell no they dont

They know and they hate it. :)

My brother and sister both know exactly what I do and are very proud of me. (I don't talk to anyone else in my fam, so it doesn't matter). As for Stewie's family... no one knows, but they are beginning to suspect things.

My parents now know. I gradually brought them into it saying I did some promotions for Playboy, then some lesbian stuff and then the shocker of everything else. They're fine with it knowing that this business pays the bills and then some :)

I remember the first 2 years or so of this business though, they knew I was making money and were always wondering if I was selling crack or something on the side, lol. They're much more comfortable knowing I sell porn now :)

WG

LOL have always loved your story WG LOL, My mother use to question why I needed 3 beepers back in the day.

yes they know, but the rest of my family will probably never know, especially since i am an aristocrat

dude that is so cool I am 2 peep my writing I am the founder of the rolling cyborgs

After you been thru the rigorous training of the mind over decades of perilous times, your brain goes metamorphosis, your mind starts to resurface and you can come back as cyborge in any style. The mind facilities mad endorphins that release severing plutonic override, which can only be surfaced by cyborgs of the generic generation. Our social physic crowd pleaser is the mentality that has driven the week minded souls of the none cyborg race into the ghetto?s of the mainstream and we stay underground seeking movements of endeavors with irrational exuberance towards a better way of life. Snapping necks like reflects, don?t start nothing there wont be nothing cuss we dictate if the next generation of life will be around in the 21st century

This is a job my friend. A huge Industry.
Instead of selling peanuts on the web , we sell adult content.
If you are honest and make everything with passion you don't have to be ashame of anything.

Nah my parents still think I work at Mc Donalds, therefore everytime i want to visit i drive threw a McD's and order bunch of shit and drive around with it so i can inbed the good greasy smell on me ;-)

my mother has known for a long time (parents are divorced) so I don't talk to my real father all that often. He called to wish me a happy birthday this year and my sister had picked up the other phone at the same time I did. When I said hello, my father paused, and I said Hello? he said "Christina?" (yeah) "you know you have a very sexy voie, sometimes when you answer the phone I think I called one of those 900 #'s" and my fucking sister pipes up with "you probably have" and bursts out laughing, he said "I've never called those things" and she said "well its a good thing, cause your daughter does phone sex for a living!" It was fun explaining that to dear old dad, who was flipping out about men having my # and it not being safe, had to explain the whole damn thing.... on my birthday no less, with a housefull of people standing around going "christina does phone sex? i always thought it was a joke? really whats the #" lol It was classic!

I shoot my parents own amateur reality site ;)

DH

My Dad has his own website :)

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I make a lot of selling something, what that something is doesn't matter to my parents

They all know what I do from the moment I started. My parents are pretty cool with it, they just see it as a job and thats a good thing I think ;)

I even dragged my brother, who was 16 or 17 at the time, into porn lol

I love that time my mom made me roll up my sleeves to show her my arms. She was convinced I had to be selling or doing some hardcore narcotics, haha

WG

Yes Not that it would really matter if they knew or not. I just recently got on speaking terms with them again. Well at least her, my fathers been dead for a while.

Why is everyone so worried about whether or not thier girlfriend or boyfriend or parents for that matter know what they do to pay the bills?

omg rofl

My dad has known since the beginning. I was flat broke and in college, I was so broke and in debt that I was close to moving back home, my dad was running out of money to help me with too so things were really rough. We tried putting together some ideas of how I could start making money again and I said "why not porn?" So I started building sites and off I went. Now my dad borrows money from me instead. I really wouldn't mind getting him into the business, helping me out with projects, but he only has 10 years left at his job and he can retire with a real good pension. It really wouldn't be worth the risk.

My mom on the other hand has no clue, though she may be suspicious, I have no idea. I don't think she would really care, she just has a big mouth and I don't want certain people finding out, nor do I want everybody bothering me about it. She was bugging me for a while about what I do, so I just said that I do Internet marketing and have signed NDA's so I can't tell her what companies I'm working with. She hasn't bothered me yet.

i think that lars put his mom on cam once

Not a worry I guess my mother is the only thing that keeps me grounded or
I would sin at will... so I feel quilty and the world is a much safer place :pimp

i told my dad years ago, he's alot easier to talk to and his response was "hey, whatever makes ya happy & makes the money!"

i told my mom last year, and she took it better than i thought she would, acutally. the only thing she was disappointed in was the fact that i would never go to college (which isnt true; i wanna take 5 classes to get my Web Design certificate). but other than that, she was okay with it.

My mom thinks that internet work is about the same as dealing dope, she doesn't get it, doesn't want to get it, so there's not much to really talk about lol ;)

I let my parents know what I do, right off the bat. They are both very supportive. I think they are both very relieved that I didn't get involved in the content end of things, though. Every now and then they call and ask for the URLs of some good sites to check out. ;)

I didn't tell my mom-in-law right away, as she is very religious. She deals with it fine, although she seems to think I promote artisic nudes, not hardcore. Don't know where she got that idea, but I'm not going to correct her on it.

haha, sounds like my mom!
WG

Internet Marketing - it IS what we do.
No need to mention porn.

Both of my parents know what I do. Dad just can't get the whole concept of "phone sex" and my mother does all the payroll, accounting etc...so it worked out good for me. I've always been VERY open with my parents...even if I tried a drug or something, I would always talk to my mom about that stuff. =)

They both know I work VERY hard, and they accept it. They're proud of me, and tell me that =)

I have the same situation. They know what I do but do not ask any questions concerning what exactly I'm doing...

My mom knows what I do, she's pretty proud of me actually, she calls me "The Smut King" I went and bought thesmutking.com years back.. lol

Yup, no problem.

When I go overseas to shoot my mom always says "ok hon, be careful and don't get any on ya" and then laughs.
