A different definition of “hard at work”
The following blog post is by Allie, the editor of 18eighteen and XLGirls magazines.
Not to downplay my love of big titties, but I’m going to take this post in a different direction from most of the other entries on this blog.
I don’t know if anyone out there gives a damn, but this is my post and I want to talk about working in porn for a minute. I mean, it’s different.
When I first meet someone and we get to the “So what do you do?” conversation, I have to decide whether to tell them that I work in “publishing” or porn. Usually if they seem like a conservative tight ass, I say publishing and change the subject. If I sense that my new acquaintance is your average down-to-earth, dirty-minded pervert (like myself), I tell ‘em the truth.
That being said, my parents know what I do for a living, but my extended family doesn’t. Extended family, if your Google skills lead you here…um, sorry.
Obviously, there are things about this job that make it unique from others. But it’s like a normal job in many other aspects as well.
What’s different:
First of all, the language. We talk quite openly (and loudly) about pussy, cock and tits. We also speak this way in important meetings. It’s part of our business lingo. Imagine telling your boss, “We need a better shot of a cock in her pussy.” Happens all the time.
I remember one specific incident where I had this conversation with SCORE editor Dave:
Me: Is there a hyphen in ass fucking?
Dave: That depends. Is it modifying a noun, like ass-fucking sluts?
Me: Nope. Just ass fucking.
Dave: No hyphen then.
Often us SCORE editors will congregate to ponder profound questions, like which would you rather fuck, an ugly chick with huge knockers or a pretty, flat girl? Or which is worse, a flat ass or cankles? But SCORE Men probably have similar conversations at their jobs too. Right, guys?
Editors are a busy bunch. There's no time for foolishness.
Then there are the models. Most of us only see them when their photo sets come through the pipeline, but sometimes we get to see them up close and personal. It’s something else to be called into the studio and have a model do a 360 for you completely nude. And it can be a bit awkward during the interviews when we ask them about sucking cock and fucking. But they’re usually happy to divulge the horny details of their sex lives.
Some other things that stand out about working here: Being extras in our feature movies like My Big Plump Wedding. Coming up with adjectives for pussy, cock, sex and boobs. And finally, being able to watch porn whenever I want while in the office.
What’s not so different:
It’s funny that a lot of people have this notion that going to work in an adult publishing company is like going to a strip club. I know it’s porn and stuff, but we have, like, responsibilities. The truth is that I get here, I drink my coffee and I work in a cubicle. I work normal hours and I have deadlines to meet.
The office rest room gets crowded at times.
Everyone wears normal clothes. Sometimes we even wear jackets because it can get a bit nippy indoors. We have meetings and other business matters to attend to. Not so crazy, but in the end, it’s for you guys reading this right now.
To be honest, I didn’t know what to expect when I started working here. But it’s been great so far. I love being able to come to work and say cock and look at naked people. But, maybe I’m just weird.
And fellow editors, if I missed anything, feel free to chime in!-Allie

Only when I’m wearing a skirt!
Admit it. You come to work with no pants.
