I going to go out on a limb here and take the opposite stance. Because, I believe your past does matter when it comes to some jobs, such as security or police work, or dealing with huge amounts of cash, or working with children.

The vast majority of "real" humans are not professionally involved with porn nor ever have been.

She eventually got a government job, requireing a security clearance, and one day, one of the higher up guys was walking down the hall, saw her and freaked out. He had purchased her underwear for $80 one night (it was almost closing, he offered, she figured why the hell not?). Niether of them said anything about it.
Well, even if this higher up guy thought it was deviant behavior, a woman selling her used underwear to a total stranger, he couldn't very well rat this woman out, because he was the buyer.

BTW: I suspect this woman was not one of the strippers in that bar because she didn't have the qualifications for it, and not because of any scruples she might've had.

What? If the school worker had been a man, and he were a male pornstar, it probably would've been an even greater issue.

It's a huge extension of the Virgin/Slut dichotomy. Women are either pure virgins with no interest in sex, or they're sluts wantonly spreading their sex all over this country founded on family values. There's no middle ground where women can actually want and enjoy sex before marriage... oh heavens no!

If they turned their warped scale of 'purity' against the same things that they engage in their marriage, they'd be less qualified than her to teach their own children.
You sure are making a lot of uninformed and perhaps even naive assumptions, here.

Depends on what type of job you're applying for. But surely you already know that.

They might not be moral or right, but they're certainly a force to be reckoned with. They always have been, in this country, and they probably always will be.
