Porn Industry Group Puts Moratorium On Filming After A Porn Star Tested Positive For HIV

(Newser) – A leading porn industry group called for a moratorium on filming, after discovering that one performer has tested positive for HIV. The Free Speech Coalition, an industry group, wouldn’t reveal the infected performer’s identity, but said it was working with Adult Production Health & Safety Services to treat other performers who might have been exposed, the LA Times reports.

The group also said there was no evidence that the primary patient caught the disease on-set. But the revelation comes at an awkward time for the industry, because it’s currently fighting a new LA law requiring porn performers to wear condoms.

…
I would normally say don’t let one bad apple spoil the bunch but it sounds like when these things happen everyone starts wearing condoms, and if we’re being perfectly honest, I’d rather watch no porn than condom porn. I can’t fully explain why, but condom porn is the most depressing porn of all time, even worse than AIDS porn, which doesn’t exactly top my fetish list either.

Feel the worst for this guy. Tough road ahead bro.
