I thought his speech at the Shatner Roast, particularly what he said about Andy Dick was already brilliant enough, but George Takei just moved 3 notches up on my "Cool-o-meter".
How well would I fare in it? LOL J/k

lol how am I suppose to answer which is the most embarrassing if I wouldn't be embarrassed at either.
This poll needs much bigger options man
whoever voted option 1 is a dumbshit and inferior human
Well… we have 6 9 dumb shits and inferior humans.
i want them to come out and say hi.
I just hope the majority of those votes were made "for the lulz".
I hope the same, as now there are 9 who have voted for option 1….....
I think this poll needs to be rigged like the Nami vs Drake poll.
I think parents who get their children involved in acting are crazy. We all want our kids to be like lindsey lohan when they grow up. The only thing worst is toddlers in tiaras
The worse thing for a parent is outliving their kid. Nothing tops that. Nothing.
I choose option C.

That's true, but there are things people do to try to change gay people, like those religious camps. It's good that he didn't acknowledge those as an option. :)
I was in Times Square about a week ago and there were people handing out brochures for camp that would pray the gay out of you.
@Zkaiser:
If I was the parent of either one I wouldn't care. Unless my daughter was underage.
That would be my thought of mind. As long as their happy, I could learn to live with it.
This thread… needs some sexy.

Yet not in the least bit surprising.
And Akumu, it doesn't make any sense at all that gay marriage is banned because of religion. There is a separation of church and state.
Or there's supposed to be… >_<
This is sorta how most men view their purpose in life…

Oh yes, I'm well aware of it. There is a very good reason that the founding fathers wanted a separation of church and state.
The instant it's violated we'll become a theocracy. But I guess the more extreme conservatives want that. "You have freedom of religion, as long as it's a Christian religion you're following."
Sorry, but that's not what America is about. If I ever have to hear somebody who supposedly stands for "American values" ignore the separation of church and state… I swear... I don't know, but it would just make me really angry. xD
Anyone else think it's funny that the bar at the top is RED?

Oh, I see. So it is a reality that it is blatantly ignored. I really thought that the conservatives were supposed to be defending their constitution, not ignoring it.
(I'm not meaning to specifically bash on conservatives here, by the way. Just the ones that do this. I am split, there are issues that both sides have very wrong IMO.)
Republicans aren't really all conservative. A lot of them, like democrats, are just soul-less sock puppets obeying the every whim of constituents. The history book thing is just another example of how lobbies are willing to sink to the lowest common denominator.
Actually this reminds me of something…
Remember how, in Braveheart, the English authorized the rape of each Scottish girl on her wedding night, in order to "breed" the Scottish blood out of Scotland?

A daughter of mine becoming an Adult Actress, would kill me. Then I would kill her. Then the producer. Then the co-star/s. I'd become a serial killer at the end and no one would be able to catch me. :ninja:
So I'd rather have a homosexual son than an adult actress daughter.

So what you're saying here is that the chances for you staring in an exotic movie are rather low?

I agree with her.
However, it would be 5x worse if someone killed my child. Because then, there'd be nobody left alive in existance.

At least, you would take your role as a parent seriously in an era of divorce.
I am an open minded person…I wouldnt have a problem I would just want them to be happy.
I would have liked to see what people think about those girls who are "forced" to do porn to earn the money they need to survive. Like many students in europe who seem to have no other choice than enter the sex trade.
I've read the book "fucking berlin" and the story shocked me…
It's one thing to be in Prostitution because you have no other choice and it's another thing to be in Prostitution just for the heck of it or to stick it in your parents faces or something similar. I know that for my children (if I will have children that is-it's something I really want but you never know what could happen in the future right?) I will provide everything, even go in prostitution myself if I had to (tho I can assure you it would be in my last options just before stealing and selling drugs) just to give them whatever they needed apart from being there for them as a hopefully good parent. So why would a child of mine need to go in prostitution? If the answer is 'To get to you' then I'd truly be nothing but a bad parent who gave the wrong morals to her kids. And I will try my best not to be that.
Why am I so absolute you may ask? Why wouldn't you want your daughter to make an adult movie even if she doesn't have to? Isn't it her own choice? It's because I know it would be something that will come and hunt her later. It's not that I have a problem with women that do adult movies, it's that in the end if she decides to get out of that kind of business, she'll find it hard to do something else she wanted. Be it making her own family or working in some other place. Like it or not society labels people making their life more difficult. I'll personally work against something like that both in teaching and my everyday life. If a woman who did adult movies for example, came up with me with a degree from a university and wanted to work in my school as a teacher I'd shrug and hire her if she was good. Because frankly I give shit about one's past as long as they didn't commit murder or rape. But I would be quite strict as to whom she'd tell what she used to do. Something like that getting out to the parents would be disastrous for both her and I. The possibility that in the bunch there will be a bastard that will not be swayed by words and end up getting the school closed or her fired, would be rather high after all. =/
we sure discuss things that need to be discussed by us:happy:
chrissie, i know you mean well, but if you ever have kids, DON'T give them everything they need. kids today are way too spoiled. they need to learnthe value of things by having to go without sometimes. if everything is handed to them, they think that's the way the world works.
someone brought up a point about parents disowning their gay kids. I had a friend in highschool. he was gay, but not out of the closet yet. In Canada, we made it legal for gay marriage a while ago. His parents are very religious, and were writing to the government about their disapproval. Their son came to them, and told them, afterwards, not wanting to continue to lie to his parents. His parents decided, that he was their son, and they love and accept him, even if they don't agree.
Having a drug addict son or daughter is worse…believe it.

By saying everything they need I meant what is really needed though. ;) Candy, countless toys etc are not included in my 'What a kid needs' list I am afraid. Giving some sweets and buying a toy for them now and then is good but not overdoing it. :P And I am certainly not gonna hand money right and left to my kids and I'll kick the ass of anyone from my family that thinks s/he can spoil them and get away with it. Yes, my dear siblings and parents. I am looking at you.
Hey, hey, if it's now a democratic society of free choice we are living in now, how are any of these options bad? Double standards going strong, eh.
Honestly, I wouldn't really care - but only after the kid is grown up. After it the decision is all up to the little thing, and I'll try to give support either way - as long as the kid is happy or in the lines of it.
So, more options to the poll - and visible results.
On a side nore, I'd be happy to have grandchildren of my own, so a homosexual son isn't helping that issue much.
And yeah… priests not marrying is the dumbest idea ever.
Especially considering the whole "go and multiply" concept from the Bible itself.
.> Human beings are a silly bunch.
While the Orthodox Christian priests are allowed to have children and families. And what do you know, it kind of helps.
Seriously, someone must have had a lot of lulz, changing "celebrate" to "celebate".

The world would be a better place if every parent thought the same as you. I'm serious and my respect for you just went up by a good amount. I knew you were a fun (as much as you can gauge that from talking to them over a manga forum) but if you really practice what you preach here, then kudos.
As far as the topic goes, I'm with Chrissie. Disregarding my opinion on having kids goes, which I'm still ambivalent about, I would think having a kid doing adult movies would be much worse than having a kid who's homosexual. Not because I think being gay is wrong, goodness knows if my son likes the stick or my daughter likes to taste rainbow, power to them, but because being a movie is going to bite them in the ass someday. Doesn't matter what they do after making that movie, that piece of cinema history is going to survive a long, long time, especially today in the age of google cache. If she/he wants to get out of the adult industry and decides to start something a bit more legitimate, then I can guarantee you that someday, somehow some horny coworker is going to find that particular piece of incriminating evidence and there is no telling what's going to happen.
In the end it's all about making sure your kid is safe, sound and satisfied with their life. A porn movie with them in it is going to hurt them one way or another and if I ever become a parent then I'm going to make sure that anything that has the potential of hurting them stays just that; a very slim potential.
I preach (I do that? Cool! :P lol jkjk) what I was taught m'dear. ^^ My parents raised me like that and I want to raise my children like that too…but way better. I also know what mistakes they did (even if they thought it was for my or my siblings' best interest) and I don't plan on repeating them. :)
Wht about a son who plays in porn movies ?

Good for you. My parents were the same way and I wouldn't be where I am right now if it hadn't for them. It's just nice to see and hear about other parents, good parents, raising their kids this way. This reminds me, I should really call them and thank them for everything. I don't think I do that enough.
Wht about a son who plays in porn movies ?
Everything that I said in my last post is applicable to both my theoretical son as well as daughter. There might not be as big of a stigma to guys doing porn (except if it were gay porn, that would probably be worse for a guy than a girl, society wise), but it could still end up seriously hurting him. He might get passed over for a promotion, or heck, even a job or it might ruin any serious relationship he has in the future.
The lesson for parents: prevent the fuck-ups of today to avert the disasters of tomorrow.
This is sorta how most men view their purpose in life…

It's cool that when your not engaging in poorly thought out political hijinks, your making retarded attempts at gender psychology using lazy generalizations and celebrity evidence. What would we do without you?
I chose the gay child, because if my daughter makes the choice to go into the porn industry, she's probably already reached a point in her life, where she may as well get paid for what she has become. Most female actresses have respected careers, and in many cases revoke all ridicule by adopting a minority child or two.
If my son was Gay, his first years of school would be hell on him, and that would be a burden on him and me that I wouldn't want either of us to have. By the time he's 20, things can get better, but his childhood would suck. Afterwords, he could also get a career as an actor or singer, considering the industry is led by gays.
In both cases, the long-term situation isn't so bad, but for the porn-actress, she can get rich and make a decent career like Sasha Grey.

I'd be so damn proud!!
On a serious note, if you have any sort of official function or are a public figure having a son/daughter (or sometimes even a relative) active in the porn bussiness can really screw you over. Main example that comes to mind is cardinal Daneels losing any shot he had at becoming pope because of some relative (adopted kid no less) who starred in a porn movie.

You never went to school with any gay dudes did you.
If you send your son to a liberal state he would be fine in school…..Also, my gay friends are looking into the med field, not the movie industry.

Let's not forget once again…
Being a man in porn usually means you had to start as a gay performer.
80+ percent of men in porn STARTED with gay porn. It's almost inevitable.

I don't buy that. Some will have to do gay porn when there's nothing available and they have no other income, but I've also seen in a documentary that a surprisingly high percentage of straight actors that end up doing gay porn, will commit suicide lateron.

That statistic is actually not as far-fetched as it sounds. The supply/demand in gay porn actors is simply far greater than in straight porn. Even some of the bigger (male) names out there today started out in male on male pornography. Think about it: where is a guy going to get more money? In a film segment practically being run in by job applicants or the one that always needs more performers?
I wish you'd made the poll public so I could see who all the homophobes on this site are.
maybe some parents can be disappointed just because they are not goin to have grandsons?
They can always adopt.
And there's a good chance gay son/daughter has straight siblings.
