Comment on Porn Store Etiquette – A guide for the mis-guided by isis88

After working in the adult entertainment business as a dancer for five years, I too have horror stories of people and there rude, uncouth behavior. There has been plenty of “WTF?!” moments.

I giggled at several of the above “rules”.

Here’s what I’ve discovered……a good chunk of the population thinks that if you work in this industry you are either a) a whore, b) a complete fucking idiot with absolutely no education because, well, who would work in such an industry if you were educated, right? or c) have completely lost the concept of self-respect and pride in your person.

Lesson too be learned: We are all super intelligent, everyone knows sex sells so I believe that partaking in such a business venture, whether it be a dancer, sex shop owner/employee or even a porn star, is a very smart route to go. We are most certainly not whores. I, as an ex dancer, wanted to dance and entice to make money. Not give you a hand job in the back, mostly due to the fact (which brings me to the third) I have self-respect and don’t want to lower myself to the title of prostitute. I may be a dancer, I but I still have standards for whose junk I’m going to touch and some creepy old dude in sweatpants who hasn’t showered/brushed his teeth in a week is not my fortay.

Wow, that was a mouthful, eh?

Great article, great shop. Can’t wait to model for your show at the Knitting Factory.

You are amazingly responsible and I admire how much work you do to make everything work. This type of partnership restores some of my faith in people!

This was a very good read. I wrote something kind of similar about how Governor Palin’s daughter Bristol could be a lightning-rod for people to discuss sex ed in a level-headed manner. I didn’t lay everything on the backs of the parents because I know that there are children out there that will not hear anything about sex from their parents. I think a lot of the education has to come from the schools. If the schools can get the kids talking in class, then the kids shouldn’t feel so awkward talking about sex with their parents.

When I was a teenager, my dad took me out to the crabapple tree and told me the facts of life. He said, “If you ever need some money to get a hooker, let me know.” I swear to all that is good in the world, that is exactly what he said. I had to find out the rest all on my own.

That is what shaped my opinion of public school supplied sexual education. Thank you.

If this article was promoting teenage sex and telling people to go out and have as much sex as possible then your comment would have a little more value. But since this article is talking more about keeping your children educated and safe, your comment doesn’t carry much weight.
1) There is nothing wrong with abstinence and as a parent I would hope my children would follow that route but as a realist I understand that they are going to have sex and the best thing I can do for them is to teach them safety comes first and to never have unprotected sex because it can lead to a unwanted birth and worse a std.
2) When did having sex make a person worthless? So people who have pre marital sex now have no pride in themselves? How much sense does that statement make?

As parents whether we like it or not we have to take active roles in our children’s education not just acedemically but also socially, morally and YES sexually, but it doesn’t stop there we also have to teach them about drugs and alcohol. If as parents we put our heads in the sand and allow others to teach our children sex education when it should come from us then in essence we are telling our children that as parents our jobs stop once they start school and that their education lays solely at the discretion of their teachers. NOT!! I brought my children into the world and I will teach them the importance of safety always comes first. Kids grow up and we can’t make their choices for them but if we have taught them the ways to keep them safe as well as the pros to not doing certain things then we have done our jobs and it is up to them to make the proper choices.

what is so bad about abstinence? lets see: having confidence and pride in yourself, not having any of those regrets, making your marriage special, not worrying about pregnancy or std’s, regarding yourself as special and sacred…ohhh no! god forbid! how horrible. lets just tell everybody that they are worthless so its no big deal.
