The negative is "obscenity" laws. "I'll know it when I see it".
Can you or your mom imagine if the government see's some cupcakes as criminally obscene, but they wont know it til they see it, so if you make it and they see it and they know it, you could go to prison?

I mean shit. You know the gray area of the law that this entire industry is forced to work under in the US right?

Another negative is tha decades long media misinformation (not saying it was intentional) that proclaims that if you are a woman who is into adult entertainment, that ultimately you are being used and manipulated by a man and you are corrupt. Which is funny because at the same time, I've been told how women are far beyond the days when they could be "kept" in such straits by any man.

Also it goes against common sense. Let me ask you a question. If 10 men go into a club and 1 woman gets $20 from each of 10 men. Are the men using the woman? huh, interesting.. Well remind your mom that society at large gets a generally very screwy view from politicians who do crazy things like refer to abortion as "murder in the womb" and other fun facts like that.

I dunno, you should have plenty to tell her when you think about negatives from the POV of someone who WANTS to be into adult entertainment.

BTW: "pornography" as a word is often not even allowed in courts (and I advise her to dispute the word) because it is a post-judgment word. That is to say it carries ONLY a negative connotation. Have her dive right into that meaty chunk. It's adult entertainment.
