I can't make it all the way through one of Outsider's posts. So instead of attacking anything he said, I'll support some things that other people said.

Exactly. I never have read an entire outsider post. It's impossible if one's brain is to remain unlike the consistency of cream cheese.

Stars don't call the shots. They cost too much money, and the movies they star in are too expensive to produce, and the people putting up the money for the movies want to sell as many movie tickets and DVDs as possible. Stars may be treated like royalty during production and they may get the small things they want, but they do whatever the producers and investors think will sell movies. The people who get to call the shots are the people who put up the money for their own movies or work in low budget independent projects. Melissa Lauren calls more shots than Mel Gibson, except when Gibson is paying for his own movie.

It seems you saying that porn girls have the no condom situation forced upon them. No, they don't call the shots on how movies are made, unless they put up the damn money for it. But, they do call the shots for themselves. They can walk out the door.

Safety is a personal choice in this regard. If one thinks fucking without a condom is too dangerous despite the testing system used by the industry, then he/she should not be a porn star. No one is promised that job.

Any producer who has tried going condom only without large cable contracts has lost market share.

Yep, that's capitalism. Thank god we still have a bit of it left.

If all US producers are forced to use condoms, stores will buy from European porducers. The European porn is already here. Force US producers to produce something that many porn consumers don't want and the European stuff will take over the market. The more porn produced in Europe, the more porn girls who work without the protection of the AIM testing program. Forcing producers to use physical barriers will result in more risk, not less. Government regulators don't have the guts to deal with sex honestly, so their response is to pretend they're dealing with the problem while they make it worse.

Exactly.
