Yeah, let the entire adult industry re-locate to bumfuck NH where there is NO statutory right to produce pornography.

Nobody is going anywhere and the Industry will be fine. Everyone needs to chill the fuck out.

Apparently, Arizona does think there’s a state-wide law against filming porn inside the borders. http://www.adultfyi.com/read.php?ID=53483. The good news is that Sheriff Joe makes his inmates wear pink, so the gals will look good in their prison suits if incarcerated. Remember: New Hampshire, the live free or die state, is the only other state besides California to recognize the legality of porn. We don’t have the San Fernando Valley, but we do have the White Mountains. There’s no Santa Monica, but there’s 17 miles of coast line, and you can tan there from about July 15 to August 9 – then, of course, winter starts all over again. Can you say AVN-Nashua? Granite State of Porn? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjxraD723Ks

Doesn’t a ton of bricks fall faster than a ton of feathers?

Mike-

Reading some of the comments on Luke Is Back about some of these companies, I can’t really bring myself to have much sympathy for these companies having to use a condom. I just read that Devil’s Film hired a gay male performer named Derek Anthony who regularly has unprotected sex with HIV+ men and had a long term lover that was also HIV+? Despite this guy’s claims he is HIV negative, do you think ANY porn girl would want to work with him if they knew that information? The company he works for actually got a CAL OSHA fine.

I’m sorry but you can’t put the blame on AHF, PWL, AIM, etc… when shit like this goes on with these companies. The performer in question did a scene with veteran performer Chris Johnston and Kita Zen, both of whom work ALL THE TIME. Could you imagine how big the quarantine would have been on that one. IMO using someone like that with that background, negative or not is indefensible.

The industry brought this on itself.

LOL I saw a news report here in atlanta about 7 years ago about a parking deck that collapsed. the on the scene reporter actually said that nobody was hurt because the chunks of the parking deck were so much heavier and therefor they fell faster.

I often wondered if he really thought that or if the guy doing the teleprompter set him up

As somone who has worked in the media his entire life, I know that TV reporters are not the brightest bulbs in our business, just the best-looking. However, this report on porn moving to Arizona kind of takes the cake. http://www.adultfyi.com/read.php?ID=53432. According to NBC Los Angeles, the city of Phoenix says it will not issue a permit to film porn in Phoenix because it would be a violation of state law. And, the reporter wonders if the same law would apply to Tempe and Scottsdale. Ah …. a state law applies everywhere.

And remember the perception is that condoms provide the MOST protection from the most things.

And perception is reality.

DWB it isnt about actually doing anything its about appearances. Its just the way shit here works these days….fuck the facts just LOOK LIKE you care…

If porners had understood this we wouldn’t be having these problems. I tried to get the FSC and AIM to switch to on the spot testing prior to EVERY SCENE years ago (via oraquick) they wanted no part because there wasn’t a good profit margin in it. oraquick tests sell in bulk for 15 bucks each. The whole window period bullshit is now moot with current testing methodologies but they clung to that as the reason. The real reason was, of course, money.

If we were testing everyone before every scene with 2x a month tests for other stds that condom ordinance would never have even been an issue.

Untill porn indusrty stop allow those work in indusrty with Stds other than Hiv cases. Means one thing testing for stds wearing condoms is gone work in stop them from happening. All do is make more Stds happen. Like they say at schools work place if your sick should be there make more people sick. If hooker working in brothels in Nevada they catch you working with any time type Stds your arrest for spreading the dease buy cops there. It seem be working there stds there on down slide well Stds in Las Angels in porn indusrty on rise. If porn think gone do well Nevada need keep this very much in mind if Stds and Hiv start happening there in large numbers state clamp down on porn indusrty there with out mercy with condoms in heart beat. They have done with there strip clubs they have done with illegal prostitution.

I fail to see how this is all going to play out. Herpes and HPV will transmit even with a condom, as a condom doesn’t cover 100% of the penis or testicles, and doesn’t protect your partner from areas of the groin or legs that may have outbreaks. Condoms also clearly do not protect from STDs that are transmitted orally. You can even catch gonorrhea in your eyes from touching the virus elsewhere and then rubbing your eyes. How can anyone protect themselves against that? If I finger Jane Doe on the set, get gonorrhea on my fingers and rub the sweat out of my eyes directly after the cut and putting gonorrhea in my eyes, who can I sue?

And what if a condom breaks on the set (they break all the time) and a performer is exposed to an STD? Is anyone at fault? Sue the condom company?

This all sounds like a giant mess to me.
