Before I started camming I told my parents this would be my job, I am really glad I told them right away because I really can't lie to my mother and I dont like to make up stories (and especially the part of remembering the untrue stories the next times)..
They took it well, and it was not a real big suprise because I allready did modeling work (latexclothing & lingerie) and when I was younger I wanted to dance at bars and burlesque dancing (wich I never did because I was to bussy with modeling).
Ofcourse this is a step further, but I did not told the whole story- I dont tell them I also do hardcore porn - they think I only dance and strip, and I think this is better for their own good. My mother will have sleepless nights when she would really know.. it would only cause fights, while I know it wont harm me (while she would think it will) and dont change the person that I am. I am the same, I only am working the job I like and when I like it which makes me an even happier person.
As for my friends, I told my two best friends what my real job is. One of them is a guy, he was also not suprised (my best friends also allready knew from my fetish modeling and desires to dance/strip.. which I only told them and my parents btw). He was really relaxed about it, he brought up nothing negative. He just talked about it like it was a casual job. Have to mention that he is a really open minded person, this is also why he is one of my best friends. He did make some jokes about it offcourse (sexual/sarcastic jokes which I totally like about him, he does this all the time, so no exeptions there)
The other friend who I told is my best girlfriend, I really did not expect her reaction. She was like "Oh I totally understand, if I would have the selfconfidence and had a better body I would totally do that to."
I really liked it that I told her my real job, because it is so nice that I can talk to her about it, and have some laughs.
I still have a lot of people who dont know my work (For example the parents of my partner, which I hope will never find out, and other friends), and I am not planning on telling them. It feels weird to lie to them, but I think it is best for now. I know most of them just woudnt understand, they will probally judge me about it, thinking I am devaluating myself or ask me why I dont use the education I worked for so hard. Simply put they can not believe someone does this because they like it, because they dont (I am not ashamed to be naked, I treasure my body and I like to work with my body while I am still young.. while other would call this selfdestruction or devaluating, I think I am just clever to use what I have and do what I like)
Also I simply cant risk to tell people, who I think cant handle it, because if they will let me down about it
(which would not bother me at all, because if someone lets down a friendship because of a JOB, I think they are really poor friends.. I mean nothing really change about you, its is just a job.. well you probally get more selfesteem, feel sexier and be happier, at least I am, but it doesnt change your total personality..)
and tell others about my carreerchoice this can ruin my "escape card" if I ever need it. I am graduated as an (mental health) therapist, and when words get around I will never get a job as an therapist. I dont think I will use the "escape card"because I really like what I am doing now, and it makes more mone (and I dont have to walk around with all the responsability which is really hard)... But it is nice to know I can quite if I would want to, else I would have feeled a bit trapped (but that is part of my personality, and my desire to be free in choice)
