Following todays news in the LA Times concerning US performers who have allegedly been infected with the HIV Virus, I am asking everyone who has an active sex life whether on or off camera to help support the use of condoms on set, by signing this online petition and doing anything else you think may help the industry.
I realise this doesn't cover all issues/angles, and Ukap's recent fantastic attempts to enforce the aims system within the UK was attacked an unsupported by many. However it's a step in the right direction and may hopefully raise some awareness....
A condom costs nothing (they are free from the clinic) and can save your life.
Please support this whether you are a performer, producer, or a friend or lover to one.
Cheers me dears.

The issue is Kaz. Really it is no longer porn but a safe sex fim. And there by definition falls flat for the viewer.
Don't do the job if you don't like the risks, it's a simple answer. Sorry to be blunt but thats a fact.

I agree with Marino, i couldnt watch the vivid stuff that came out a few years back with only condom scenes, it totally killed it for me. Viewers just don't want to see it and with the internet, will simply go and view content without condoms from elsewhere.

I have to agree M8. There are many jobs that have risks, eg fireman (Getting burnt to death) policeman (attacked). I can't understand the immediate knee jerk reaction we have here, when these things occur in the US. They run their porn like a factory production line, this is why an outbreak gets out of hand. Things here are like a quaint cottage industry in comparison.
I think a person in a high risk occupation, would laugh his or her head off at our "dilema", ie wanting to have sex with loads of people, get paid............er and have no risk at all. Unfortuantely, life's not that sweet!

Marino love you to bits but i agree with Kaz on the condom issue, 12 years we have been shooting movies with condoms & they sell so its a myth that viewers don't like this. Its no good just having certs then doing this without a condom just for the producers pride.
We make every one use condoms & to be honest the normal amateurs/swingers etc we use feels cormfortable with this as swinging sites promote safe sex so the people preform well with condoms as this is the norm to them.
A girl can be gang banged, d.p etc with condoms & the viewers don't care as main interest is the cum shot at the end which in our case is without & usually facial.
The UK will come in line with other countries with a 'condom only' policy in the end but until then we can pretend & make out to play safe & say we have a cert.

P.S. Marino hope you are feeling a bit better now & everything is working out alright xx

Well my dear Kim and there are always the exceptions to the rules.

I guess there will be mixed opinions on this as there are a lot of guys who do not find the use of condoms a turn on whether using one themselves or watching others engage in the sexual act of...
Having said that there are plenty that wouldn't mind, and what about latex/rubber fetishists?!
I personally think many guys only find condoms a turn off because most porn is shot without a condom and therefore they emulate what they see in the movies. One might emulate diving out of an aeroplane, off a building or fighting with a samurai sword, but the hard facts are that if you do so the risk of fatality/injury is high....whereas society still tends to have the misconception that 'nice people don't get sti's'
Sex can be like russian roulette if you don't choose/act/think wisely... and even then there are no guarantees. A condom is not completely risk free, it can still split, be pulled off during rigorous sex and have a 5 % failure rate.
Having said that - that means they are 95% successful!
I'm not claiming that the use of condoms would eliminate all known sti's or appeal to everyone, but raising awareness would be a start.
With just about every other fetish/niche on the net there must be room for safer sex? Perhaps there is a gap in the market only being filled by a few.
Just out of interest I would be intrigued to know why some guys do not like to use/see condoms. I'm guessing the latter is those who enjoy to see the exchange of fluids?
As for the former - perhaps not wearing the right brand of condom and feeling condoms are too tight/restrictive, especially for the well endowed?
My porn partner prefers inspiral when we use condoms as they fit better and are not too restrictive.
Also Inspiral do a female condom (which is meant to be more comfortable than previous brands
In theory, with this female condom in place there would be no need for the male performer to wear the condom, but both performers would be protected and there would be no need to ruin that sexy vaginal cumshot! You don't often see creampie in porn as much as facials and many female performers have told me they do not do this due to the increased risk of sti's. Think of how many sexy creampie scenes you could shoot if the performers have the added protection of this little rubber device.
How do the girls feel about this and are there any guys that would find this a turn on?
Even dental dams are now appearing in more alluring colours...

Kim,
you can still catch infections from oral and facial cum shots,
not just from your mouth, you can get them from infected cum in your eyes.
