AB 1576: trannies, faggots and crossovers

[Torris]

Now that AB1576 seems to have unstoppable momentum to mandate condom usage on California porn sets, how is the Tgirl subset going to message itself when they are blamed?

The het porn industry through the absolutely incompetent, corrupt and greedy Free Speech Coalition mounted a text book case in failed messaging. Chickens coming home to roost for too many years of trying to make a profit off of HIV testing while ignoring the rampant transmission of other STD's and Hep C.

What did you expect when you put a former junkie porn star like Sharon Mitchell in charge, put her in Doctor's smock so she can be Dr. Mitch with here store bought PhD. (Getting my PhD took me four years of hard work and blew up my marriage)

If anyone reads any of the porn blogs and comments, you can feel the het porn side needs to lay the blame now that FSC has shown it can not stop this from happening. Zero accountability for their lack of perpetration. The consequences of their (FSC) financial collapse is imminent. Who will pay these losers dues $ after this?

You really can see how there is a hive of resentment geared to blaming this on male performers who work in both het and tgirl porn plus the clandestine escorting they do on the side now that the porn industry is in free fall from tube theft and bookings are drying up

There is a lot of subtle and not so subtle resentment to Michael Weinstein of AHF that you can't write off as jealousy to his better organization and credible reasoning

They hate his "whiny voice", think he is mounting a gay agenda to control HIV testing, etc. it isn't just Donny Long and the cretins at Pornwikileaks

Long story short: Is the Tgirl porn "industry" prepared for assault of the backlash coming when Gov. Moonbeam signs this?

It will negatively impact my porn purchases. (Yes, I pay for my porn. I am in Vegas right now trying to find Tranny Chaser 2)

Call me any names you want, I am not buying Joey Silvera or Jay Sin porn if it goes back to condoms

When this condom mandate was put in after Dr. Mitchell let her pal Marc Wallice infect five girls Vivid lost nearly half their sales and it put VCA out of business

Get ready for the other shoe to drop, thus my crass title of this post

No one is going to blame Diane Duke of FSC, they will blame Christian and his cohorts

prob 70% of TS porn is all condom anyway ... so it wont make a difference for our niche .

Agreed.

[Ben in LA]

There's always the amateur (lower quality) stuff.

It doesn't bother me one way or another if the performers are using condoms. As long as the scene is HOT is what matters.

[scuderia]

im totally on your side.
condoms, especially in the t-girl scene dont do it for me and i wont buy them, if done with condoms

[Michelle Firestone]

Idk the whole thing pisses me the fuck off. Like gtfo. Seriously. Fuck those motherfuckers.

[christianxxx]

rest assured, it will NEVER be all condom. In porno, if 95 percent of the industry does one thing, then there is money in doing what the other's won't. There are other places in the world to shoot non condom scenes. Also, AB1576 is just in California and doesn't even begin to address enforcement. Most of my scenes on my site are non-condom (all of them except for 1) and Jay Sin & Joey are never going back to condoms. There is no money in it for them.

I'm far from an expert on the porn industry. So could someone please explain whats so magical about shooting in Cali-pornia? I don't understand.

Branches out from girls wanting to be actresses in Hollywood, but end up doing porn. Why is Hollywood in California? I have no clue. Maybe people like burning their skin.

[dc_guy_75]

Its mostly due to the climate. I've been living in California for the past few years and I can't imagine ever experiencing winter again.

Fuck cold weather! Forever.

Thanks! So people regularly get into porn after struggling at acting? Interesting. I have only been in 2 scenes, and at this point I'm not actively looking to do more anymore. I got into it from camming, which I still do and love.

Thanks for confirming that condoms impact sales

It seems to me that as porn stores convert DVD rack space to dildos and lingerie, the het porn seems to be shrinking down to niches and parodies.

The tgirl racks seem to be holding steady. More lines and new producers. With that product you have to factor in time viewing, price and storage. For those dozen or so of us still buying our porn

My way of prioritizing is condom vs non condom. I'm totally off the Devil's and White Ghetto titles bc of condoms. I'll check the box cover scans for Grooby and Third World for condoms before I'll buy

As you mention Christian, I am automatic for Jay Sin and Joey Silvera. They should give you your own line for EA

My fantasy voyeuristic viewing doesn't include latex and with a glut of product non condom gets my cash

Which scenes have you done? For a porn company?

As someone fairly new here I would buy a DVD "Girls of Hung Angels" I don't do the cams but would want to see some regular posters in action

[RallyCola]

just saying...i really don't care if a condom is used in a scene or not...it really doesn't matter at all because to me, what matters is how hot the chick is...that's all. barebacking doesn't make the scene any more erotic for me as a viewer.

[diddyboponTOP]

I would never watch a condom scene,I watch very little TS porn,Im more into GG facial abuse type porn these days But condoms ruin a scene for me,Id much rather book a session then wack off half the time so I could really care less.Porn is like Hey 1995 called it wants its hat back.

[dante]

faggots hahaha

[Michelle Firestone]

It bothers me because it's such an intimate personal decision. As long as performers have a choice then I don't get why there's a problem?

[crystalsopen]

Which scenes have you done? For a porn company?

I did a hardcore with Eva Cassini for her personal site. And I did 2 solo scenes in one night for Grooby's upcoming early transition site. All of which was shot in December 2013. Recently, I have decided to continue my education, so I'll keep doing cam shows, as that really works with my life goals (flexible scheduling, work from home). But, I'm not looking to do be a porn-star. But at the same time I'm skinnier and have better boobs now, then I did when I shot that. So, part of me would like to do some more just to show off how good I look now. I also sell self shot clips at my kinkbomb store (http://www.kinkbomb.com/studio/crystalsopen/).

From what I understand, most of the people supporting this want to destroy the adult entertainment industry. Protecting performers is just the lie they are using to get their way.

California is full of corrupt politicians who are at their heart control freaks who want to tell everyone how to live their lives, and who need to look like they are "doing something" so they can keep on sucking on the tax payer tete and bringing in those lobbyist bribes.

LA came out with this rule this was the result:

Porn film permits sharply decline in L.A. County
Only two have been issued this year after voters approved measure requiring condoms be used on porn shoots. Industry normally generates 500 permits annually.
April 17, 2013|By Kurt Streeter, Los Angeles Times

What happed was some bussiness moved to nearby Counties and some companies just did not apply for permits and shot descreetly.

I suspect some of the larger companies will move to Vegas and many esp. independent producers will just shoot at private homes under the radar.

^ Truvada will become mandatory for gay and TS and even possibly straight shoots within the next 5 yrs

[blueeyeboy]

From the outside looking in, I'm all for condom use.it's not just about protecting the performer (which I agree is an egregious unnececcesary overkill, what with tests etc)but about sending a message (even an unconscious, subliminal one, that condoms are supposed to be used!get used to it chaps and gals, they are here to stay, for a very good reason.....didn't a lad put up a story a while ago about a buddy getting hiv off a girl?there's no reason it can't happen to you peeps, and tbh, you sound a bit like them people who refused to wear seatbelts......

In the 80s we had the Old Testament Right wingers and the Meese Commission on porn. 25 years later it's the same tyranny by virtue of the liberals and their Nanny State
