Not to say there aren't negative aspects, of course.

As someone who's been involved in the adult entertainment industry since the early 90s, one negative aspect (from a producer standpoint) is it can sometimes be detrimental to maintaining secondary mainstream employment outside the industry. In the past I've been let go from a job when management learned I was an adult photographer. At the time I was rather pissed off at their decision...but later came to realize it was actually a positive thing since it motivated me to devote more time to photography production.

Lemons into lemonade.

But I digress....
