Is an adult star's risk any more or less? Due to testing and the lack of a severe beating, I'd imagine the adult performer's risk to be less.

Also, stunt people are hired to do a dangerous screen shot. They are well trained for the stunt they are undertaking and take all the necessary precautions to minimize the likelihood of personal injury (risk).

However, we should note that they are paid to make "the shot" and, if they don't like the risks involved, they can walk away. Is an adult star's risk any more or less?

Given the public and OSHA's acceptance of the risks involved with fighters and stunt people, it seems that all the attention paid to the risks of adult performers is centered on a hidden pro-censorship agenda with the demise of the industry being the ultimate goal.

Risk is risk.....and to treat the adult industry different than professional sports or stunt people is not justified in my opinion as long as the risk are minimized to a level that is acceptable to the adult performers.

AHF seems to be promoting themselves, aids hysteria, and the hidden pro-censorship agenda that includes "condom-only" productions.

Some fucked-in-the-head individuals in our industry are playing into their hysteria without considering the consequences.

Just my opinion. I'd like to know what you think.

No Fear, Just Knowledge!
