LA Votes To Require Male Porn Actors To Use Condoms

Voters chose to require performers in porn films produced in Los Angeles County to wear condoms.

The measure garnered 55.9% of the vote after a hard-fought campaign,

“This is a major referendum on the subject of safer sex,” said AIDS Healthcare Foundation President Michael Weinstein.

The measure is sponsored by the foundation, which has been pushing for years to protect adult-film performers from HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases.

Under the measure, the cost of the law would be paid for by porn producers, who would have to purchase a public health permit, much like tattoo parlors. Violators would be subject to fines and misdemeanor criminal charges.
