Sean from www.pornlegends.com writes: Turn on the “Way-Back” machine to earlier this year when Darren James (or was it Laura Roxx?) headed the industry into an HIV tailspin. California health officials considered mandating the use of condoms during filming. Free Speech Coalition Grand Wizard, Kat “Flipper” Sunlove, was quoted in an AP story as saying, “Do we really want condom police?”
“We’ve had two, count them two, positives in five years,” Sunlove stated. (The total number that tested positive was four: James, Roxx, Jessica Dee & Ms. Arroyo.) Flipper’s statement sure sounds like a defiant “NO” to condoms in adult films, wouldn’t you say?
Several days later, Flipper said the industry would oppose attempts to require the use of condoms (Flipper circles the pool to gain speed.) when filming. BUT, Flipper said, the state might consider incentives to encourage their use (Flipper jumps!), such as tax breaks for the cost of HIV testing and other (one rotation) measures that would make it good (two rotations) business sense for producers to require or encourage the use of condoms (SPLASH!).
August 16, 2004, California lawmaker, Paul Koretz, called for the industry to self-regulate itself or risk having the full weight and power of the state of California come crashing down on it’s head. This means increasing the number of HIV tests per month, monthly testing for other STDs, the banning of ejaculating into a female body cavity (mouth, ass & pussy), and…the use of condoms in all performances that feature sexual intercourse.
In response to Mr. Koretz, Flipper had this to say, “Free Speech Coalition recognizes (gaining speed) that the non-legislative, voluntary approach outlined by Assembly member (and Night of the Stars co-chair) Koretz (one rotation) has given our industry a window of opportunity (two rotations) in which to demonstrate its maturity and its willingness (“It will drive the industry underground.”) to work with government to protect (two rotations) talent,” Flipper stated. “Now it’s up to the members (three rotations) of the adult entertainment community to do their part in this effort to prevent our performers (four rotations) from contracting life threatening diseases that my be transmitted in the course of their jobs (SPLASH!).”
WOW! We suspect Flipper’s trainer, the guy in the gold-plated wheelchair, choked on his fifty-dollar cigar when he read that!
