Well, this is going to open an ugly subject.......but if you want, I will.
I WAS a member of the FSC on 2 occasions (Different years, not contiguous)
I tried 2 different times to get involved.
On NUMEROUS occasions, I attempted to engage people from the FSC, because I believe we need a group like the FSC. I withdrew from being a member because of the direction they took. (Which I'll be happy to discuss if you want.) And specifically, for the attitude I got on 3 separate occasions from 2 different FSC people. There's no other way to put it, they were simply Rude.
I'm an east coast guy....(You know, where Washington DC IS?) and we need representation HERE. Where the laws that affect ALL of us are made. There was a guy here in PA trying to get a group started, and I supported that, but it just didn't generate enough interest.
Not just issues in Sacramento, and certainly not pursuing "piracy" in the adult industry. (That IS a bad thing, just shouldn't be the focus of FSC)
So yes, we need an "FSC," just not the one we have. And yea, I know, something is better than nothing, and I can't even support a group I don't fully agree with it, but they are just too far over in the "too far from me" area.
There were also several big policy issues I didn't care for. Shall I go on?
The one right thing they've done that I applaud, was making Regina Lynn a board member. I know there is at least one board member with the right ideas. (Not to be inferred, that there might not be others)
