I'll just give my side of the story from my knowledge and opinion being a current adult performer but before I begin, The Outsider... it is not that girls mother's responsibility to warn her daughter of what the possibilities are. It'd be nice for her to give her the warnings and perhaps educate her with STDs but perhaps the nurse isn't aware of what the industry is about with STDs. Just because she's a nurse doesn't mean she is up to date with the adult industries health standing.

Anyways, I've exchanged bodily fluids with around 19 females and 47 different men in the adult industry. I participate in my regular testing at AIM Healthcare on top of that go to my regular doctor every month as well for a full panel test. You may call it lucky or not but in the time span that I've been doing movies I have not tested positive for herpes. Nor any other STD out there.

But I'll tell you one thing. You hear one person say at least 80% of the performers have herpes another person will say a lot of performers have herpies, then another will say herpies is out there and those who have it are still working.

Well I'll tell you that know one knows the true facts/statistics. I'll have to say that this hype has gone overboard.

I do understand that it's a huge risk as a performer to catch an STD that isn't normally tested for. I do understand that we should be tested more often than just once a month. What people don't realize is if you're responsible enough you'd know you can test every month for all of the STDs but people are too cheap to spend the extra dollars for their well being.

I cant understand to some degree why people don't want to spend money each month on testing which is why I go to my regular doctor for a full panel. Insurance pays for it. And I realize not everyone has insurance but Just because I'm being smart about taking care of myself doesn't mean I'm safe.... I am willing to take those risky risks of working with people to do something I enjoy. Let's not talk about the money involved for right now.

If any of you people are that concerned about it, you have the will power to take care of it by contributing to spending extra cash if you dont have health insurance to get a full panel. Otherwise, I don't want to hear it because you're just as bad as the ones you're complaining about.

If a person is willing to take the risk in the adult industry when taking extra precaution that you're in good STD standing then fine. You people make this a huge ordeal even though it's obvious. Dont you people realize that it's not any worse than some dumb high school or college student, even matured adults go out and have one night stands because they like it, or do it because they were drug or hi on drugs.... you think those poeple asks for AIDS and STD tests? No of course not. They do no extra precaution. Condoms don't count becuase you can still get STDS with a condom. I'd call that a lousy attempt in protection ones self.

I'd like to say and believe the adult industry is doing a much more effective job in preventing STD infections than the normal lives of people having sex on a regular basis.

We definitely get what we ask for.
