As far as condoms being used in the industry. That'd be great. As I believe only a few companies provide that as an option. If I remember correctly a big junk of the industry did use condoms for a while and received mostly negative feedback. But anyways, of course talent has to have an up to date mandatory PCR DNA HIV/AIDs test and std tests in order to work. I get that done and since I pay a visit to my doctor on a regular basis for physicals to make sure I'm okay nearly twice a month I always have them do a STD Panel just in case. I also try to stick to working with a smaller variety of people rather than just anyone. With any suspicions of your partner, you turn them down. It's not a easy thing to do but it's the safest.
Oh and since you weren't sure what I studied, it was Visual Arts and Biochem. As a double major.
