At this point, except for the TTBoy situation, there has not been any fines or orders imposed by CAL-OSHA or the Dept of Industrial Relations. However, based upon some of the chatter I have heard from Sacramento as well as being told by several legislators at the last lobbying day, the state of California is concerned with the health and safety of performers in the industry.

This is a situation that needs to be handled politically by FSC and our lobbyists in Sacramento as quickly as possible before any movement to require condoms gains momentum. However the disconnect between the gay and mainstream industries may cause friction (no pun intended).

There are other ways to better protect performers than current system other than to require condoms and dental dams.

Obviously, there is also a First Amendment issue, but not being a First Amendment specialist I really cannot comment on the validity of such a position.

I have been working with the FSC to bring health benefits to the industry so there is at least a safety net for the performers if they so choose.

Thanks
