I mean I'd like sex work and just plain old sex itself to be more accepted, but it there are times when it's private. Tom Paine did a great job of discussing the subject of when do we tell, are we burdening others with information they don't want. I'll leave the link because while sex work is work, the nature of sex is also personal and therefore impolite in some cases as well... http://perverselypoly.blogspot.com/2007/08/more-on-hiding-in-plain-sight.html Does it seem needy if I am the first to post a comment? lol
