'Moral issues' lead banks to refuse porn stars bank accounts and loans

Being a porn star might not meet the approval of everyone you meet but you might think your bank manager would be one person who wouldn't have cause to complain.

Adult film actress Chanel Preston has starred in close to 150 porn flicks and is well compensated for her time, but now it appears she is having trouble keeping a bank account.

Wonder how the bank officials knew.

I read an earlier article the porn stars are opening accounts with their porn "stage" name, which can probably make it pretty obvious in some cases, I would guess.

Has she tried a sperm bank?

(*rimshot*)

What business of the bank’s is your line of employment to open an account? A loan, that’s different, but an account?

And yet public school teachers can pretty much pick and choose what they want to tell your kids about anal cucumber sex between men and goats or anything else. It’s a public health issue, after all!

You mean one can't be immoral and right wing? Ok, perhaps not fully "right wing", call it fiscally conservative in all but morals. Perhaps Libertarian is the word? After all, the porn industry is pretty pro-gun and rather pro-govt-get-out-of-our-business type folks. I can't see them being pro-tax-n-spend, either.

I'm 50/50 on this topic.
