The porn industry is one of the more profitable brands of business today. It is estimated that it earns about $6 billion a year. However, there is a very negative side of the porn industry that we can’t see or even imagine when watching a good porn movie. There’s a dangerous and disturbing connection between the porn industry and the spreading of AIDS.
It all started with many deaths of porn actors during the 80’s, when it was the outbreak of the disease. The first resolution taken by the porn industry was to institute a HIV testing for actors. The major problem it’s the fact that besides porn actors have multiple partners as a part of their profession, they are always engaged in risky sexual behavior. Porn movies always depict practices such as anal sex, group sex, switching partners and ejaculating into the actresses’ mouths. This fact alone is enough to worry anyone involved with any porn production.
Surprisingly, today the situation it’s not so different. The use of condoms in the porn industry is at around 17%, quite the same it was before the AIDS outbreak. Besides, the so called cumshots are still a practice in almost every movie. In 2004, the whole straight porn industry has voluntarily shut down for one month, trying to figure out a way to control the problem. It was triggered mostly by the announcement of two major porn actors being tested HIV positive in California.
On the other side of the coin, the porn industry affirms that making every movie with actors using condoms full time would probably ruin the business. Viewers will always want to see the dirtiest material as possible, so the fantasies of most viewers would be over. There are today many non profit organizations trying to create policies to better solve the problem for all parties involved in the porn industry.
