“Solutions are more than welcome discussion, but the off subject criticism is getting old.”

As an outsider the highly critical industry policy opinions I regularly foist on folks here have been welcomed with a level of tolerance and respect that makes these personal attacks against industry participants sickening!

@Commonsense vitriolic rants attacking performers show less respect for fellow humans than any of the things Common offers as proof performers don’t care.

How did you decide this comment was directed at you? Because it wasn’t?

So as a fan/ caring human being wouldn’t you be better served worrying about your own health and things that impact you on a daily basis?

We all eat out at fast food… we all go to sit down restaurants. We are all aware of the shit they put in our food. From farm or ranch by the time it hits the drive thru or table we are seated at…. we are consuming some fairly disgusting additives…. if we really really cared we wouldn’t be putting much of those things in our bodies.

So why do you care about what porners do? I can’t predict the future but i feel fairly safe in say none of the std’s we deal with in porn will ever jump out from your computer and infect you.

And if you really do care isn’t it more appropriate to wish someone well rather than critisize a woman for being a dumb slut or a male performer for being a woman hater? I can assure you thats not the case with everyone in the biz.

Solutions are more than welcome discussion, but the off subject criticism is getting old.

common sense

you make some valid arguments. I am just recently coming to grips with the fact that performers truly don’t give a shit and think it will never happen to them. They are perfectly fine getting chlamydia 8 times in their career, herpes, and all that fun stuff. I understand all that is unavoidable, but the HIV stuff I am starting to see the light that nobody cares. I think the fact nobody called out Stags for willingly putting all his performers under his banner at risk, seals the deal. I know the industry rags on and on about how they hate the girls escorting because it often leads to bareback sex, but they seem to turn a huge blind eye to all the off camera party and bar sex that happens very often without protection. It is what it is.

Not one male performer publicly voiced his outrage for doing bareback scenes with Sheena while she as having bareback relations with an HIV positive man.

Do mandatory condoms help when filming scenes? not really because what the performers do in their personal time could be anything. From the male performer that seduces a girl at a party or a bar with the “I am a tested performer you don’t have to worry”, to the porn chick living the gimmick by blowing a random guy in a club bathroom, to the girl who fucks a bi guy thinking it is hot while knowing he does gay porn with HIV positive men, it is all there to see. All the mandatory condoms do is allow the industry to beat its chest and say “no on set transmissions”.

I guess, really, should any of the fans care anymore? The performers are sending the message, NO.

Why? even if a performer knew the person they were about to shoot a scene with had HIV.. They wouldn’t even give a shit.. They would shoot the scene anyway…. These people are mentally ill and or low life’s…they don’t care about anything or anyone not even themselves…I mean how many times have certain people said on here that the performers really do care but are too afraid to speak out for fear of losing work just over condoms alone.

So they continue to shoot scenes without condoms and risk contacting HIV with every scene they shoot because THEY REALLY CARE! LMFAO! No! That’s a LIE. the REAL reason the performers say absolutely nothing and continue working/shooting scenes in this industry condomless anyway IS BECAUSE THEY DON’T CARE. TRUTH!

I mean come on ..on the “gay” side don’t performers WILLINGLY Shoot scenes with people they KNOW to be HIV positive? YUP!!!, and even though SOME of these people shoot WITH condoms….who in their right mind would do that? Who in their right mind would willingly shoot with an HIV positive performer condoms or not. I wouldn’t! I wouldn’t want to take the chance.. No matter how small that chance may be Of contracting HIV? Hell no! So who would shoot with these people? Answer? NO ONE IN THIER RIGHT MIND WOULD. THAT’S WHO!

It is a PREVENTABLE disease after all! We all know how not to get it… I certainly don’t want it… No one in their right mind does…

And don’t tell me this is a homophobic or discriminating thing to say…Lol! Stick that politically correct shit up your ass! It’s called having SMARTS. It’s callled NOT BEING AN IDIOT! IT’S CALLED TAKING PRECAUTIONS! But these people are crazy and or low life’s so they don’t understand this common sense FACT!

The point is these performers DON’T CARE PERIOD . NOT ABOUT THEMSELVES OR ANYONE ELSE. And, I am willing to bet there are already a number of performers working on the “straight” side who are HIV positive and they KNOW IT. But, again, they just DON’T care. In their delusional minds they see HIV as being a MANAGEABLE disease.. And some others with it are just low life’s who don’t care who they pass it on too.. PERIOD.

For example…do you really think Sheena Shaw is the ONLY performer currently working in this industry stags is fucking? ( and If you believe that there is a bridge I would like to sell you over in London. Lol)

These performers KNOW he has HIV but DON’T CARE. I don’t know if he still shoots scenes with the performers are not but if he does or when he did the performers KNOW/KNEW he has/had HIV.. No one is/was tricking them into doing it…They are/were willingly participating? Why? Because they DON’T CARE!

Ps… these performers are a sad/pitiful group of individuals. 🙁

A couple of people have mentioned Toyota and Mercedes….. they have N.A.D.A ( new car dealers association) to lobby and work with state and federal lawmakers. We have the FSC which has been clinging to freedom of speech and freedom of artistic expression for way too long. A real trade organization gets its power from the very top. FSC doesn’t really have that support so you can only blame them so much. But if we had a real trade group a lot of these issues would be dealt with.

I think you should still be releasing the name. Why you are not? Yes, it is apparently a false positive, but people who get false positives may test positive in the future. The name MUST BE RELEASED.
