Old people grew up in a different time, one day you will be the one complaining, trust me.. My son feels the same way as you do...hahaha
I will be complaining, but probably not about those things mentioned in my original post. I have different views on those things than the people in my family do.

I love my grandmom to death, and she is THE sweetest, most loving lady, but sometimes when I hear her complain about certain things (homosexuality...and just now she was complaining about this Robin Williams statue), I wanna roll my eyes.
I got the same thing with my own mother, we have very very diff -like oppositive- views on almost everything (politics, homosexuality, rasicm, personality disorders, wellbeing of the earth itself). There are lots of times I am truly ashamed of her. I try to not get in an argument with her since she is very closeminded about all of it and doesnt want to hear diff opinions. It is hard, bec it drives me very angry a lot of times, especially when we are around other people. (She is an older lady, almost 70)
Hardest part is she doesnt want to know better. Once we were talking about history; colonization by our country over anouther country and she Really believed we helped that country by taking it over, she learned so in school.. I mean how dumb can you be by standing by that argument for so many years, even though history and everyone around you will tell otherwise. I just dont take her serious anymore

No you are not the only one Sweetie. Today's been a real bore, just a bunch of jabber jaw time wasters. I've been logging on and off for the last hour, need to just stay on and suck it up in hopes of a generous reg will come out of the wood work. It can't be me, I just got my hair blown out and a mani/pedi and I'm looking super fly so it's gotta be all the cheapskate broke asses investing the site today. Hang in there, things can turn around for the better in an instant. Ok back to work!!

Well, don't feel that bad, your not alone. I had so many people all day in free chat. I'm entertaining, don't show too much but can't seem to get the paid shows today. Drag, made about $50 bucks for 6 hours...ikkk....

No! It sucked today. I had to pull out all stops today and I still couldn't get a private. I work with LJ and had alot of guys in Free Chat and nobody buying. They say all this stuff how sexy I am, love my body, blah..blah...
PUT YOUR $ WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS MOFO!!!!! I wish we could get tipped in free chat.
Drag. It was terrible.

I love my family and we have a very close relationship, but I keep a lot of aspects of my life secret from them. Camming is an obvious one, but my bisexuality is another can of worms altogether (and likely more volatile). I got to listen to my father rant about how uncomfortable it made him when he was having a conversation with my step-mom at work and her coworker. The woman mentioned that her wife had tried a similar project to the one they were discussing and gave a few tips. He stopped listening at 'wife.' He isn't vocal about it, but the idea of homosexuality is always one he's struggled with. Oh, and our conversation also involved him telling me that if I ever married a woman, our (very, very close) relationship would certainly suffer.
Probably for the best he doesn't know about my last two girlfriends.

If they arent making you money, cut them for now. I like how Flirt4Free is set up for performers, but they really need to crack down on the freeloaders. I swear out of all the cam sites, they have the most freeloading customers.

Camming sucks right now because I made 110 in 2.5 hours and people keep saying really dumb shit about me being trans. For christ sake, stop calling me a tranny and asking if I like to "trick" dudes. I'm about to cut a bitch

Im really sorry people are being jerks about trans issues, its the really harmful way mainstream porn markets transwomen.
However 110 in 2.5 hours is pretty decent, not a lot of other jobs have that kinda hourly babe!
Personally camming suck for me right now because the freeloaders were sooooooo real tonight. I had one who complimented me for the 6th time so I didn't say anything and then I got back "well fuck you then bitch" like really?

You have to remember that you are in the adult business. I'm sure the guys mean no harm. I'd rather be called a tranny than a shemale. There are worst things that you can be called, and that's broke and homeless. They're are not going to say oh 'thats a transsexual'. They are too horny to be politically correct.

I know and usually it's fine but today it just was wearing on me. I'm not strict or mean about political correctness, I just wish it wasn't standard to be called slurs and to have this be my best option as a trans woman to not be broke and homeless. But most of all I just wanted to vent a little in the camming sucks thread :(

Being called a tranny is not a slur, at least not in porn. You have to see the intention behind these words and how they are used. When you're walking down the street and someone yellin 'that's a tranny!'. Now, THAT is a slur because it's derogatory. These guys come to see you, willing to spend money on you, they love trans women so they mean no harm.
Remember it's not what they call you, it's what you answer to!

I understand that you're trying to make me feel better and I understand that context and customer intentions matter but I really wish you would try to be a little more sympathetic or at least not tell me that I'm wrong for feeling a certain way. I've had to deal with my share of transphobia and it's hard to just think my way out of a negative reaction to words like that. Rationally, I completely understand how context changes meaning but I really just wanted to be upset for a second and not corrected for feeling that way. People aren't telling other girls in this thread that, though they are pissed about having to smile and be pleasant on cam, they need to understand that men want to see them look relaxed and happy. Can't I just complain about something that bugs me like everyone else?
JaneBurgess

That's like saying calling us whores is ok because we work in porn. I can guarantee you a lot of performers do NOT like being called that and it's not ok. Being in porn isn't an excuse to talk shit to performers and degrade them like so many men think it is. I've been in this industry twelve years and no way in hell does anyone want to be called names or treated badly. Tranny is a slur to a lot of transgenders.

Anne_Marie, sometimes people in this industry push their own negative self image onto others. None of us should accept the stereotypes or labels thrust upon us as we try to create a career for ourselves or at the least, a steady income from camming. It doesn't matter where the word "tranny" comes from or in what context someone wants us to think it should be used. When a word like that is used, it is perceived one way. Let's not honey coat it, Whoregeous, though I'm certain your intentions are pure, derogatory slurs come from smiling faces too dear (and in the worst way, often).

When I said this same thing on here a long time ago, a couple of the ladies on here gave me grief for it, and I think even accused me of "needing a thicker skin" or some shit. LMAO. Um...no, dude, my skin is plenty thick. :P What another model wishes to call herself (or allow men to call her) is her prerogative, but I DAMN sure don't have to allow men to call me 'whore' or 'slut' just because I'm in the adult industry. Hell, even when I'd have a nasty argument with that last guy I was involved with IRL, he was smart enough to never call me a 'bitch' to my face, cuz he knew I'd have his balls for breakfast. Lol. I will always stand up for myself when I feel disrespected, or when something makes me uncomfortable.

Its not the matter of thicker skin, it's about having respect for other people. I dont care what someone does for a living, they don't deserve people cussing at them and calling them names. It pisses me off when performers try to justify the bad behavior of customers. There's just no excuse period in acting like a douche.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying though. I don't like fellow cam girls telling me "You need a thicker skin if you're gonna be in this business." WTF does having a thick skin even have to do with me demanding respect? Adult performer or not, I am a human being, and I'm allowed to demand respect. And that whole "Well, as long as he's tipping/paying, he can call me whatever he wants!" thing may work for some models, but it certainly will not work for me. I will correct a guy real fast when he comes in my chat calling me 'whore', 'slut', etc. right off the bat. I mean, stuff like that shouldn't even come outta their mouths unless the model has previously stated that she likes that kind of talk (some girls do). If I haven't stated that I love being called names, do not assume you can just waltz into MY chatroom calling me those names.
