I went away for a couple days to focus on work.

Because of this you're going to take some hits. The objective part I'm referring to comes from you knowing and accepting this and letting the hits roll off of you like a raincoat and not taking it so personally. Its not a cirticism of you as a person but of your art. This is a legitimate endeavor when you invite people to partake in your expression publicly. When they do, negativity is going to come. You need to lighten up when it does and not be so touchy. Like I said, your stuff may not be to my taste but I love that you've got the guts to be out there with it for whatever your personal reasons. I just don't think you need to be so defensive or hostile just because others are goading you.
Rock On Babe!

There's a difference between being able to be critiqued by colleagues and being told that you're barf-worthy, disgusting, offensive, and that your pussy goo is no different from shit. Those are not mature, productive, objective discussion points, so it's no wonder that I don't have a non-objective response to them.
Secondly, Alex has not been making rational claims or backing up his presumptions with fact. He is
fear mongering to the extent of inferring that a little pussy blood could be the end of the porn industry as we know it, and I really shouldn't even have to dignify that sort of panicky-ass finger-pointing behavior with a reply.
I don't understand how we made it to this backwards reality of saying that fright-based sky-is-falling arguments are some kind of "fact" compared my own historically documented "opinion" that the only way that the adult industry has made it this far is because a few people have been willing to go to bat for *all* of us and challenge bad laws and obscenity standards.
