Internet Tradeshows - What's going on?

[BobbyR]

Chris showed me this thread a couple days ago but I ran out of time. My thoughts...

I've been going to the shows for a few years now and I've done my share of partying.

The sexual pulse of our shows will never change. We all are in the business of promoting sex in one way or another. What stood out at this show was he public display. Every show seems to have about the same level of sex but it really needs to stay within the private parties in rooms and offsite events. CCbill used to sponsor Fetish event in Vegas offsite at a Mansion with Fetish stuff. You knew before you went that people would be tourturing, racking, etc... at this sort of event peeing in a cup would have been encouraged. Every person that took the time to get on the buss and drive out to the Fetish Mansion would be aware what they were getting into. You go to a Topbucks photo shoot and chances are you will see people having sex in front of cameras. Don't want to see it...don't go. But nothing should be on display in the middle of the hotel, on the beach or in the public hottub or anywhere that people...industry or not looking to see sexual activity. Some people don't want to see that sort of thing. Even people in this Industry don't always want to see sex. Even when we have the hotel booked exclusive it is our resposiiblty to keep it under lock and key.


I didn't see any of the distructive behavior that everyone is raging about but that sort of behavior is typically isolated to a few idiots. That is nothing new to human nature, porn or not. I have always felt that with all the public scrutiny on our industry that as a whole we should be conducting ourselves with even more professionalism than mainstream.

That's all I have to say about that...
