"Political Influence of Adult Sites" and "Free Speech Coalition" pressure.

I realize that this is a free site/TGP board, but people here tend to forget that they are not the only people in the adult industry. "Adult" consists of all sorts of people working on all levels, and for any micro-group of the industry to say that they're the best ones to speak for everyone, they're just making themselves look silly and inexperienced.

I've read more anti-porn writings than any 100 people here, and I guarantee that a statement by a bunch of webmaster dudes about how women and performers probably feel about their work would be dismissed by every single anti-porner out there, and would do further damage by showing that even "adult industry" can't be bothered to get input from their "content".

Your youth and inexperience are shining through. Some of us do a hell of lot more than just TGP's. If you actually took the time to do some research you could have found articles of mine dating from the present back to the middle 90's on various aspects of this industry from my first hand experiences.

I understand your position and respect it. You obviously have no respect for those who blazed the trail for you to do what you do. If you did you would more likely than not have a different perspective. You are born of a generation that wants everything now. Some of us understand the concept of changing from within and building a solid foundation for our actions.

If you really want to make a difference then do it. Rhetoric is not going to get the job done.
