You're refusing to because you can't put it clearly into words, and you can't clearly put it into words because there is no difference. You believe that camming for gay men is personally degrading, and you know what? I not only respect your belief, but also agree with you. I wouldn't ever do it, myself, but I also recognize that some people don't find it degrading and respect their choice to do it. There is nothing inherently degrading about coaching or about camming for gay men, and EternalEnvy's feelings that it is degrading to coach are entirely worth respecting. Calling them "stupid" means that, logically, you must believe that your own decision to not gay cam is stupid. Otherwise, you have contradicted yourself and are being hypocritical. I don't look down on people who do it, if that is what you are asking. I wouldn't do it, personally and I have no need to. However, I would never refer to it as "whoring", because its pretty shitty. As I pointed out above, EE stated that "coaching" was debasing (whoring) himself for money from fans. If fans want to interact with him and pay him, thats fine and it doesn't make him a bad person for accepting it. I personally think EE is sort of an awkward guy and it would be stressful for him, so he doesn't want to do it. That is also fine, but he should just be honest and say that if its true. The "whoring himself out" is a bullshit line, because plenty of people make paid appearances to interact with fans and there is nothing wrong with that. | ||

Fortunately in ~3 weeks I'll be moved (hopefully) and then me and my fiancee can make it for breakfast again. Till then I have to wait. EDIT: Guys, you're arguing over semantics. It's all relative and P6 if the guy feels that way and that's the way he put it then you're just going to have to accept it and move along. | ||

the point is, ee doesn't want to be paid for what basically amounts to interact with a viewer for 2 hours. he thinks it's whoring because they only want to pay for his attention specifically and not the insight he can bring. and this insight isn't such a rare commodity because his primary clientele are going to be 3k-5k mmr. i mean idra did the same thing, he hated coaching but raised the price to an acceptable level where he felt as if whatever time he spent regurgitating drivel about sc2 to his student was worth it. i like belgian waffles | ||

I need to try it with Texas Toast though some time. Would probably improve the quality by a bit. | ||

There's also nothing wrong with being a literal whore and accepting money for sex. But some people find that degrading and anyone sensible would be able to respect that. Likewise anyone sensible would also be able to respect other lines people wouldn't cross like accepting money just to talk to a stranger for 2 hours because to them it would be a degrading experience. Not being able to respect that is honestly just immature as fuck. Edit: And i should add i generally think EE is a fucking idiot, but i'm still sensible enough to respect something as simple as this. | ||
