Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 44128, member: 636"] Adult film workers face serious health risks that safer sex practices could prevent. California researchers studied 168 performers and found 28% had chlamydia or gonorrhea. Women performers face higher infection rates than men. Another study showed performers catch diseases again at rates above 26%. Four years of data revealed 22% of actors caught at least one disease during that time. Nevada prostitutes have better health outcomes than adult film stars. Legal sex workers undergo weekly testing and use mouth swabs along with urine tests. They also use condoms with clients and follow strict health rules. Adult film workers have higher infection rates despite Nevada prostitutes serving more clients. The difference comes from better safety measures and regular health checks. Most adult films avoid condom use because directors think viewers prefer unprotected scenes. Condoms reduce HIV transmission chances over 90% according to medical studies. Directors worry that visible protection will hurt video sales. The industry shuts down productions when someone tests positive but never tracks how diseases spread. Nobody investigates which other performers might need testing. Laws requiring condoms and health permits face strong industry resistance. Los Angeles passed safety rules that made studios move to Las Vegas instead. Federal regulations could stop companies from moving between states to avoid safety laws. Worker protection agencies might need to step in and create industry-wide health standards. [/QUOTE]
