I work in the adult field

The way I see it, the adult business industry is a market that will never go away and is always one of the top income earners. I not only design & develop sites, but work one on one with people in marketing, SEO and SEM. My company also has existing porn sites for sale. That's how we get by. SMUT! You can take a 'filthy' job and make it very professional and even honorable. It's how you present yourself that makes society create its opinion of you. You can be a good parent, wife, husband or friend and still work in a field that has forever been branded as 'lesser than'. If someone has a verbal expression of you based on what you do, not who you are - they lack any positive character, probably have little work ethic and are probably not anyone that you should give a shit about in the first place. Do what you enjoy and hopefully it will support the lifestyle that you wish to live. Fuck everything else... Be happy.
