I sacrificed attending the Big Muscle party in favor of being a panelist at convention of bloggers (http://www.Webzine2005.com), and believe me, it was a big sacrifice.
Besides myself, we had an attorney, an erotic art photographer, a female bondage model and a writer from Fleshbot. We all approached the topic with dead seriousness without much chance for self promotion or discussion of other issues in the adult business.
The panel began with a Powerpoint demo by the attorney which outlined the details of 2257. His presentation was well done and offered hope for success in Colorado courts, but I had to point out that any decision made in Colorado may be trumped by Mike Pense's bill in Congress, which no one seemed to know about.
I kind of got on my soapbox and pleaded with any bloggers out there that cover political issues to please do some research and get the word out about threats to our industry!
I'd like to make the same plea here, that if anyone has connections to mainstream media and political bloggers, we need to get this out to the public with OUR OWN SPIN, rather than continue to be on the defense against moralists.
Any thoughts?
