Saving the porn industry... one orgasm at a time...
Los Angeles County voters chose safety Tuesday night when they approved a requirement that all porn actors wear condoms -- a move that adult film workers complain will put a massive dent into a booming industry.
With 100 percent of the county's precincts reporting, "Safer Sex in the Adult Film Industry Act'' -- or Measure B -- passed 56 percent to 44 percent.
The AIDS Healthcare Foundation, which sponsored the initiative, said the measure will help safeguard public health as well as porn workers' health.
"This is a major referendum on the subject of safer sex," AIDS Healthcare Foundation President Michael Weinstein reportedly said in a statement.
Opponents, largely members of the porn film industry, which is based in Los Angeles, claim the business polices itself and no one has contracted HIV on a film set in the United States since 2004.
I would like to read the actual language of the law. It's possible that the law assumes that the condom will be worn in the regular manner and doesn't actually mention how the condom is to be worn . I'm wondering if they could simply wear it like on a finger... or their ear... or maybe a toe?
