Rare Drug-Resistant HIV Found in NYC

[SidChromeAU]

Allanah, I'm referring to some actual friends of mine when I cited my 'mates'. The simple fact is, for every quote you come up with, I, or anyone else, can cite an opposing view. The fact remains that the sources you quote are still a minority view. Frankly, it doesn't matter: if they go off on a tangent and find something of value, great. It's happened before in other fields.
I fail to understand the level of vitriol in your replies - I disagree with you, and I think that your simplistic view, masked in pseudo-science and carefully selected strands of thought that enable you to keep burying your head in the sand, is erroneous. I don't, however, have any desire to personally attack you - just a desire to refute your stance.
Unless someone comes up with anything new in this thread, I'm done. I've made my point.

By the way - what do you guys think of my new Animation, I am so proud I made it myself.....

Very nice, Danielle--and very hot, horny and dirty, whoohoo. You fit a bit of everything in there: top, bottom, rimming, man you like to tease us, don't you, girl? But seriously, I think it is well done. I like that the first and last photos in the sequence are slightly different shots from the same scene, with the other two scenes in between, and I love that you slowed the final frame waaay down on your sig. Nice touch. The frames are a tad too quick, maybe, but the frenetic pacing is offset by the slow fade of the first and last frames which bleed into one another. Very nice job on the fade (I see it took 27 frames to achieve). All too often people build animated gifs which flip in .1 seconds between frames, making you dizzy to watch them and not be able to enjoy each frame for a bit. Good stuff. Now do one with me in the scene (I'm still waiting to squeeze your tits, babe, hehe).

By the way, just to highlight how I feel about this topic and why, a male performer recently (within the past 3 months) approached a str8 male director about not wanting to work with Arriana Jolie. When asked why, he explained to him that "well she works with transsexuals". When prompted further about it, he said, "they all hook and any guy off the street can blow his load in their mouth for $150." Asked how he knew this, "stammer, uh, uh, it's what I heard".

This was despite the fact that she had just done a 65 guy cream pie video in a foreign country. It just pisses me off that because I am a shemale I get perceived as dirty or disease ridden, etc. It should piss other shemales off as well, but instead we just get hate for it. Guys like the one above telling us R.I.P. in other forums for doing the very thing str8 porn has done, predominantly safely, for ages.

I see myself, Joanna, Danielle and some others are trailblazers here. While we may not get credit for it, we are working to equalize the perception of TS in the adult industry. High profile female performers working with us... without condoms... using the same testing that all of the other performers use. I mean fuck, I got to work in a str8 video last year "Tales of Perversity 11" which not only got 5A's, but got tons of AVN nominations and accolades.

I don't want to get sick. I don't want to get anyone else sick. I just want my gender to be well perceived in society... at least in a small way. They may be small steps, but last year was huge for shemales bridging a major gap in adult industry perception. By the male porn guy's reaction, we still have a long way to go.

Hey Vicki

I totally respect your decision to work without condoms and I am sure u will remain negative using the mehtod u use-as per the majority of the adult industry

but

I have a Q:
Do u feel to have to conform to the adult industry standards to gain acceptance?

Quite frankly- alot of people will always have preconceptions about ts and be negative...so I am just thinking wondering, from your point of view- why do you think that doing condomless sex scenes is going to make that any different?

My hope is that "a lot" becomes "a few" and "always" becomes "occassionally". That is the most I can hope for. I genuinely think the mainstream public sees TS films always use condoms and wonders why. When people ponder it, they go back to regarding us as gay men who look like girls. It makes sense for gay guys to always use condoms right? I think small advances which allow mainstream guys to see us with female performers or eventually even have the str8 male performers crossing over to some extent would be awesome. Sure it isn't that big of a difference, but in the scheme of things, our genre isn't going to get overnight mainstream acceptance or societal norm acceptance. It's all little things.

I would like to think that your club stuff could morph from what they are to flashy nightclub type environment world renowned. A place people could go with people from work without feeling they were violating 100 different HR policies. Or hell, go the other way and do a big strip club type thing. NYC is where this type of thing could really happen. I think regardless, the more it goes on, the more exposure it will get, and hopefully it will expand. Little things can mean big things down the future for girls like us. That's all we have right now.

Breaking news a case has just been reported in San Diego Ca.

It was unfortunate that this person with the newly founded HIV strain was naive to think that testing regularly protected him from HIV while continue a lifestyle of unprotected sex with multiple partners that use drugs.

Personally, I believe anyone participating in unprotected sex, whether anal or vaginal, is dangerous in this day and age, especially during one-night affairs. I have this view point, because I am not a porn star that knows their sexual partner's last monthly STD test results. Knowing a person's monthly STD test results or your partner's sexual history changes some people's prospectives on unprotected sex.

As far as male porn stars not wanting to have sex with Ariana Jollee, because she had sex with a TS is plain ignorance. I find the porn industry has a double standard considering most heterosexual porn has anal acts without condoms but most gay and TS porn has anal acts with condoms. It is bullshit that we continue to have double standards in this day and age.

True. No ever refuses to work with Sylvia Saint, yet she has had unprotected anal as well as vaginal sex with men dozens if not hundreds of times in porn shoots and DVD (as have most European starts- Color Climax and Private always show bareback sex, unlike Penthouse Black Label for example, or or a lot of American-made porn).

I would be very intrigued to see if there would be any kind of backlash if one of the megastars of straight porn were to be in a transexual video (Danielle or Vicki with Sylvia Saint, Jenna Jameson or Tera Patrick, now that would be a DVD I'd buy). I think they'd never do it though, because they know how difficult it would be to find willing male costars afterwards.

and also...

I don't want to get sick. I don't want to get anyone else sick. I just want my gender to be well perceived in society... at least in a small way.

I see your point and agree that TS porn shouldn't be considered dirtier or more dangerous than gay or straight anal and also that transgendered people need to be accepted in society. I also undertand that porn stars have regular tests and I assume that anyone who was found to be HIV+ would be prevented from featuring in any more films or shoots. But, personally, as much as I enjoy watching bareback porn (straight or TS) and, like everyone, prefer having bareback sex, I think that condomless porn (of any kind) gives the wrong message in this day and age. If the movies that fuel our fantasies would only encourage safe sex, then maybe, just maybe, people would practice it a bit more.

This is the kind of discussion that is good for the mind and informs people who only read posts and don't really participate, Vicki, again you not only are great looking but have a brain... WoW what a combo.
Allanah comes in with credible questions and contridicts with valuable facts...
Danmmmmmm this is great!
