Why I Don’t Want Condoms: A Porn Performer’s Perspective
My decision to do porn wasn't an easy one. I spent months debating and talking to people: girls, agents, directors, my parents, my boyfriend at the time. I made many pros-and-cons lists. At the top of every con column? Sexual health. Eventually, obviously, I decided that the reward was greater than the risk. And I was right. I feel sexually safe every time I go to work. But California's A.B. 1576 is going to change that.
What Truvada Means for the Future of HIV Prevention For Porn Stars
With Weinstein’s callous dismissal of Truvada as a “party drug” for gay men, it’s unlikely that he will be receptive to Acworth’s advocacy of PrEP as a public health strategy for porn stars. Weinstein’s statement sends a dangerous message that people who use Truvada are irresponsibly promiscuous, fostering an atmosphere of stigma and shame that may deter high-risk individuals from seeking treatment. Adult performers are a highly stigmatized population, and there may be a concern relying that on Truvada and testing alone is an irresponsible choice compared to using condoms.
