Bareback No Certs

[Harry Powell]

Hi Kim

I think you may misunderstand what I am pertaining to regarding Employers Liability Insurance.

I am not referring to your house or car insurance, but a specific type of Insurance ALL producers should have to protect themselves.

Furthermore every producer should work as a Limited Company which will further protect themselves and even their homes should something go wrong

The fact that his sounds like alien language to so many people only reenforces how much further our industry needs to go to operate at even a basic level of safety and corporate and personal responsibility.

On a tangent - working as a Limited company will save you many thousand a year through various tax relief as a trading company.

I understand Liability Insurance & how it works Harry but as soon as you apply for it all your other insurances go up in price & some companies won't give you life, home or car insurance because you are in the adult industry.

I had a hell of a job to get car & home insurance because of applying for Liability Insurance so unless the Ombudsman can change why this happens no one in their right mind will go down this route.

Has there are a couple of insurance guys on here can you tell me if what they have done to us & others is legal & what action we can take against the companies penalising us.

[Harry Powell]

I've never heard of any premiums going up because you ask for Public Liability Insurance.

Of course you should run it through a limited company and that will save you ??? in tax each year too (and give you the ultimate legal protection if something goes wrong)

Other producers insurance premiums on here have increased or been effected due to being in the adult industry, we wouldn't advise anyone to take out one.

Cover yourself in one hand & lose out in another because we are treated like we are jaded...shit choice really.

Monty,
I had a similar experience myself in June 2012.

I had booked a (newish) model for a full B/G shoot. The model arrived on time but when it came to checking our Certs she said that she'd had her tests done recently but didn't have a Cert as she'd been advised by, as you call them, "people in Ireland" that as long as she'd been tested she didn't need a Cert.
Fortunately my cameragirl (who is also conversant with the adult industry) was present and, between us, we advised that not only regular STI/HIV tests are vital but also the Certs that accompany them to show test results.

The girl was a bit annoyed with the "people in Ireland" for giving her "false information" but was happy that I (and my cameragirl) had set her straight and was ok that I reduced the level of the shoot (with a reduction in fee payable) down from full B/G to HJ as I had my up to date tests and Cert.

It would be good to hear glamourchicks side of events.

How long have they been fucking with no certs I wonder?
How many models have gone over there and worked with this mob with no certs?

Way I see it is any model who has worked with them in the last say 6 months we need to black list until they have a few months worth of clear certs !

Funny also how apart from Kim no models have voiced an opinion to this on the forum, or waded in to defend the glamour chicks mob.Makes me wonder what some have to hide.

[Harry Powell]

Thanks an interesting point there Nob3y

Many girls on the Glamourchicks site post regularly on this site...

And slack working practices means they could all be at risk of catching and passing on SDI's

Some comments from models is asked for as well as appreciated

A shame glamourchicks won't respond x

[Nob3y]

Its a very good point.
And as we all know some of the models are usually very vocal on here,facebook and twitter when there's a problem with a tog.

If it was somebody like myself (as in a one man band tog who shoots his own content for his own sales) in this scandal my name would be run around everywhere by the models and before you knew it the whole world would know.
So why are the glamour chicks mob getting off lightly in this regard?
There hasn't been any mention of this that I have seen on twitter,facebook,AIR or anywhere else that I have seen.

[one eyed jack]

Why would Glamour Chicks or any model that works for them come on here and be blasted for being wrong?

If they came up on here to deny it it would be a flagrant lie

They all know theyre out of line so why state the obvious? The new girls are only guilty of not knowing and thats where they could come seriously unstuck if they caught an STD and left it untreated.

Just because you feel ok doesnt mean you havent got one that, left untreated could lead to cancer or worse from a simple chlamydia infection.

Yes, Im scaremongering because its the only way to get this grave information into your heads. Check it up on google

Where there is smoke, there is fire. Theres no lying about it, Its not even libellous to accuse them when so many models have said it in the past two years.

Thats the problem with this business. It lacks a professional attitude when you see things like this happening.

Frankly it is a very reckless attitude that is begging for a lawsuit IF anything came of it
