And those stunt men also have a particular set of safety laws they must follow. I don't see anything wrong with these laws.

Porn destroys womens bodies, i'm against it. These young women are confused and desparate and don't know the ramifications of what this will do to them until it's too late. At least the condoms help protect from disease and pregnancy, better than nothing.

Ok i may be out of it as far as porn is concern. But from i can see and what i hear, women in porn, are in it, because they love sex, the no commitment, i heard a interview, so i know what some of them think, they love to please men, and they said in no uncertain terms, the money is not bad at all.

Never heard those in porn are confused or desperate.

These people are all adults, and adults should be able to make up their own minds on if they want to wear protection or not. Hey it is their life not mine. They as adults, know the consequences of not wearing protection.
I am so out of it, i already assumed porn stars were wering protection, to me it makes sense, but it is not me we are talking about.

That's a really insulting thing to say about adults who willingly choose to perform in adult films. You're making a huge generalization, and it's just wrong. There are many, many women who enjoy making a living in adult entertainment. You don't know what you're talking about.

The money has always been with specialized niche amateur sites.

How do the supervisors at OSHA determine who gets assigned inspection duty to go to the porn studio to ensure that condoms are being worn?

When people prepare food there are certain requirements they have to adhere to as well.

When janitors clean toilets they wear protective covering so they don't get contaminated don't they?

OSHA requirements.

Default Los Angeles City Council passes ordinance requiring porn actors to wear condoms

Quote:
In a major defeat for porn studios, the Los Angeles City Council has given final approval to a city ordinance requiring porn actors to wear condoms during film shoots.
L.A. approves condom rule for porn performers - latimes.com

Can't wait to see how much tax revenue L.A. loses from companies leaving the city. Boycott L.A.!

That's a sure way to kill a quality action scene. If all the yucky tats, body piercing and "shaved bald" on the gals wasn't enough! Nothing like the classics with women who didn't look twelve and weren't covered in tats with a ring in their cheek or eyebrow! Yuck! lol

There shouldn't be any porn actors, simple as that.
