Well, how I feel about the situation is that of course I don’t like how he still chooses to work in the industry while being with Ed and knowing that it will hurt him. Though Ed himself, said he’s fine and the two have settled the issue and talked it through. I can see it both ways, because of you think about it: it’s not really easy to just drop everything you’ve been working on for years because of a person who you just recently have gotten into a relationship with/fallen for. It’s like asking the question which I’ve heard several times: “who’s more important? Your job or me?” I do think Glenn could just direct/film porn and not star in it, but there might be some cases where he has to? We don’t really know what circumstances might pop up where Glenn would need to star in the filming. Althoughhh, I wouldn’t suggest suggest dropping the whole story just because of that. I don’t think the author would just let the whole situation continue with the whole “having a lover but still working in porn”, since I’ve seen plots like this before in other BL stories and they all ended up working out without staying in the industry. Plus I heard a spoiler that would definitely make you wanna stay ;3

    Oh and I kinda think acting in porn is similar to regular acting. People who are in a relationship with an actor do need to understand that their partner may have scenes where they have to act as a lover to someone else, kiss someone else, hug, even bed scenes, etc. They realize that but are okay with it and stay with their partner. They may not like it, or get jealous and that’s okay, so long as they can accept and come to an agreement that their relationship will still be the same even if it’s just acting. Like with porn acting and regular acting, most of the time there are no feelings whatsoever, just for work. The only difference is that in porn acting they actually go all the way. Of course I can see how people dislike it and don’t approve. It all depends on your own thoughts of how you feel about it, everyone is different. For me, I’ve seen plenty of stories where there’s polygamy (historical manhwa, manga, etc.) or 3p’s. I’ve basically gotten used to it and have come to the thought of: “if the people in the relationship understand, love, and consent to the fact that they won’t be the only one involved with their lover, then that’s fine.” Besides it’s only up to whoever is in the relationship. If they’re okay with seeing their partner acting with others in an intimate way (while knowing that their partner only loves them and has no feelings at all for anyone else), then that’s nobody’s problem but their own. No one should even have to have to protest because it doesn’t involve them at all. You only disapprove because you have a different set of standards to which you feel like you can allow with YOUR own lover.
