Are you sure you're an accredited and honored pornographer?

Nothing wrong with promoting safe sex on an educational site, but on a porn site?

I'm not here to promote safe sex or birth control, I'm here to make money. Put the word condom in a domain name and you just shot yourself in the foot.

I'm here to make money, too, but that doesn't mean I must do so in the least responsible way possible. It's a cop-out to say that *you're* here to make money, as though people who want to discuss business ethics just doing this as a fun stupid hobby and have no clue how to do anything. (This same shit comes up EVERY SINGLE TIME there is an ethics discussion: "Dude, I'm here to make money", inferring that "making money" means doing whatever it takes and being as degrading/inaccurate/stupid as possible.)

As I said, it may not be our stated objective, but porn sites *are* used as sex education for tons of teens and adults. People *do* look to porn for advice, ideas, and just curiousity of how it all works. Porn *does* effect so many people's perceptions of how the human body is supposed to work and look.

We smut-peddlers may not *want* to be sex educators, but we are.

I'm not saying that every site has to focus on teaching people about herpes and condoms and abortion, but it's really shitty to see people jump to slam the idea of a porn site that features condoms.

Those of us that were raised in the South must have been shorted in our sex education. I never remember my health teacher stating for extra credit go visit "cumfuckme.com" and write a report on sex, nor did my parents ever say "If you have questions about sex you don't feel comfortable asking us, please go check out some porn sites cause we think they will be able to clear things up for you."

I peddle adult entertainment...call it a cop out, call it whatever you want to...THAT'S what I SELL...and that's what I make money at...I DON'T teach sex education.

There is no such thing as sex education in this country's public schools. There is "abstinence training".

Many parents do not talk frankly with their children about sex, they might do an anatomy talk and "save it for marriage", but almost no one I've met got accurate, positive information from their parents about sex.

You better believe that more than ever, teens and adults are looking to porn sites to figure out what on earth sex is and how it works.

As I said before, YOU ARE A SEX EDUCATOR, even if you didn't ask for the task and pretend you didn't hear me. It's nothing we can control, but we can control what sort of messages we send to people about sex.

LOL Anything else you feel the need to dictate to me about MY life and MY job?????? Just wanna make sure that I am meeting with your expectations!

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but perhaps it's time to realize, that doesn't mean yours is the be all end all answer in the World. It's just that; YOUR opinion.

I hope you understand that you are a rare gem in that, right?

I can look around at my intelligent sex-positive friends with children and see good parenting, but it doesn't mean that John Q RedState is sitting his son down and talking to him about STI risks and symptoms, how to have safer oral, vaginal, and anal sex, and that it's okay if he wants to be queer or trans when he grows up. As saturated with "sex" as our society is, we're still in the dark ages when it comes to real-life sexual knowledge and levels of comfort with ones own sexuality.
