V.A. Knows a Lot of People

Only the first episode, but the show promises to be an interesting peak into the lives of individuals from all walks of life. Having an individual that works in the sex industry was probably a good choice, as it shows a willingness to explore typically marginalized facets of society. Shows like this are important because they reveal the humanity behind the labels that we apply to each other. I feel that gaining any type of understanding about individuals whose circumstances and/or lifestyles are wildly different from those of your own is a wonderful opportunity for self-growth, and can help foster acceptance and tolerance of differences. Plus V.A. seems like a pretty cool and chill dude. He seems like a person that I would like to have a beer with. Good on him for allowing the audience to walk a mile in someone else’s shoes.
