Yahoo: Adult film executives warn of broader impact of Measure B condom law

[s0crates]

And I believe that business generates mucho local $$$. I know way back in the days of my first career, the ever-growing impact of porn on the CES show in vegas (in spurring video gear sales and the new <then> home theater market) was being felt. Now they have their own huge section at such trade shows. A lot of CE industry people credit the porn market with driving VHS and DVD development as media formats.

I found girl on girl lesbo porn very exciting... when I was 14.

Are we seriously discussing which genre of porn has greater sophistication?

A Schindler's List porn parody is still porn.

Meh, I must be jaded. There is plenty of porn out there where I'd rather go read a book than watch it.

Like seatbelts and smoking in bars, and helmets, PED's sometimes you have to be protected against yourself.
why not this?

I agree.. usually the book is much better than the movie anyway.
They can really flesh out the characters.. I mean in the movie, Samantha is just some slut, and the pool boy doesn't even have a name. In the book, we find out his name is Eduardo, and he's cleaning pools for his mother's brain operation.
Samantha is a college student who is pretty much just a loose and easy slut, but the background we get on her and Eduardo makes it all the more intimate, especially when they're doing the "three legged dog" on the chaise lounge.

Hmm. I think you could have a future writing Erotica. "50 Shades of Bang."

The problem with the argument in the op is the same as every slippery slope argument. They are claiming we should not take an action that leads to positive results, because other actions that lead to negative results are based on similar logic. The correct conclusion to draw is that each of these actions should be judged as separate questions and not as one larger question that we need a categorical answer.

However, I don't see what is positive about forcing condom use in pornography produced in one county. The only thing it does is moves the businesses out of that county. Further, I think we need to ask who does this protect? I don't think there exists a talented pornographic actor who is unable to find work because of his/her dedication to only film sex scenes with condoms, and I don't think anyone particularly cares about this persons plight if he or she does exist. This is why I voted against it. (Well, and also because I don't want to see condoms in my porn)

[Forehead]

Someone already beat Bang to it.

[bobbi3stix]

Hell, everything is a slippery slope leading to our way of life being stripped.

EVERYTHING.


Stupid people of America: please.. just shut the **** UP.

~Bang

Couldn't agree more, it's ridiculous how every single day there is something or another being changed.

Has anyone else ever casually watched a porno while eating cereal in the morning?

I love Louis CK`s bit about sex and porno Something to the effect that... `as an act, sex is pretty disgusting and revolting. It has to be. Because as soon as a man climaxes from watching a porno.... he immediately turns it off.``

[Dan T.]

Stephen Colbert had a funny bit where he quoted an industry lawyer who said that actors wearing condoms would ruin films set in historic times. Because porn viewers demand historic accuracy.

Yep, and call me a hippie but I don't see anything wrong with that.
