Is this really Cinnamon posting? If it is, it's good to have you on the board.

Being a pro-whore is a pretty extreme career choice, all things considered. So...I'm curious how you explain your vocation to your children. Could you say something about that?

thanks



Sinnamon, with an "S" dear. To address your question, my children have always received age appropriate information as they have grown up. How does a cop explain that he shoots and kills people? Some things you just explain on a need to know basis. I'm certain people would like to pretend like they never have sex to make those children and that their kids never inquire why mommy was screaming "Oh God," while in bed with their spouse. Young children may not know what sex is, and therefore not warrant that explanation. For my teenagers, they know what I do because my ex-husband thought it would make them hate me - he was wrong, my teenagers and I share a closer bond because of it. They feel they can tell me anything because they see me as perhaps a bit more liberal than most parents. The truth however, is that I am quite conservative despite my sexual proclivities. It allows me to give my children open, honest opinions about their lives, their choices and the paths they chose - so that they can make healthy decisions bout their future. Truth is, most children see their parents with rose-colored glasses, mine know that I am human, but see from their own observations that I am more than my occupation. I am the woman that has always been there for PTA meetings and baked cupcakes for birthdays, helps with geometry homework and assigns reading list for the summer. I think that's really all that matters... Not how I chose to earn a living. Fortunately, porn has allowed me to put away enough to provide for their college educations, even if they all decide to go off to IV League schools.

So yes, while you stated in your previous comment that I am a souless deginerate for chosing to sell my body without some imaginary necessary pathology, I think its far more noble than working a 9-5 and limited my kids to a life orchestrated by a government and educational system that forces young adults barely out the crib to incur debt in order so they are forced into the work force instead of persuing their dreams... Luckily, I left college without such debt, and thanks to the consumers of porn, my kids will too.

Sinn



Well, if you're saying that you don't do porn so that you can live large, but so you can give your kids a better life; that you're not a drug abuser, or take drugs to be able to do your job; that you've had a decent childhood free of abuse (verbal/physical/sexual) or parental neglect; and that you have a 4-year college degree. If all of that's true, then, I still think your choice is pretty extreme, but hey, I think you should get respect. Personally, I think it might have been nicer to have become a doctor to support kids, but everyone's got to make those calls for themselves I guess...

You sound like a responsible parent.

What can I say, if what you're saying is for real, then all the best to you Sinnamon.
