misterz, you make some interesting points there.

The condom use as a necessity due to regulation could end up to not even be an issue, after it would've been and when it'd be enforced. It'd then be a common practice. Those who want the "bareback" flicks and these only might turn to Euro Porn entirely.

I as someone not inside the industry can't tell whether HIV's widespread in the gay part of it, but would like to add that what someone here named "anal olympics" is part of nearly every shoot nowadays. It's not purely anal mostly like I imagine it's in gay porn, but nonetheless.

It's debatable if people who work in the industry try to fool the public on purpose or if they're simply unaware of what you deem to be true, i.e. that there are a lot more performers infected with herpes than in the general population.
