lol. No, I didn't say that only immoral people would be members on an adult forum. What I said was that I find it interesting that you find fault with the adult industry (this was before your clarity of certain aspects of porn, mind you), when you're on LPSG, which is a site that has a large homosexual population who engage in acts that don't result in reproduction.

I'm curious though. What pornography do you view as promoting promiscuity? Also, most straight porn films (regardless if a condom is used or not) ends with a facial. Do you view that as being bizarre sexual behavior and not promoting reproduction?

I just think it's a bit misguided to expect pornography to champion your campaign of reproduction. It's not their job. I think the goals that porn companies and the people they employ have are very simple. They want you to watch beautiful people have sex, orgasm, and maybe by the time the movie begins and ends, you'll have climaxed a few times as well. I don't think many people sit down to watch a porn film and think, "Man, I can't wait to see Olivia O'Lovely conceive on this one" or "Sativa Rose sure is having some good ol' fashioned natural potentially pregnancy-inducing sex." I think the objectives of the audience are pretty simplistic as well, and naturally on the same page with the progenitors of pornography.

Getting back onto the subject's topic though, Sasha Grey said in an enterview that there should be a union in the adult industry that can make testing a lot better and more efficient. I don't think a union will form anytime soon due to the nature of companies and the money the make, but I think it's something that could address a lot of the health concerns and problems that occur in porn. Anyone else have any thoughts on inionizing the adult biz?

Well I think that internal pops are a whole lot more beautiful than facials. Aren't facials mostly about male dominance, and disparaging or demeaning women as mere objects or property? The penis is designed to deliver the "seed of copulation," or the spurting or shooting semen, into the vagina, so as to allow for human life to naturally multiply and spread. Even where humans manage to "pull out" in time, wouldn't the semen more likely spurt out onto the belly, in real life, and not demeaningly upon her face? Of course, it feels better, and is better for enlarging the human race, to not pull out, but to let the semen spurt naturally inside her vagina.

It's quite selfish if it's just about the man. His wife should share in the natural reproductive pleasure, and babies should be welcome to life as well, should they happen.

Even porn "fantasy" shouldn't be only about the man getting his jollies, but more inclusive and less selfish.

Isn't a lot of what makes porn so arousing, is that it's so suggestive of natural babymaking? It arouses powerful human reproductive urges, why guys can't scarcely keep from getting hard watching it.


WHAT????!?! I in no way get turned on because porn is suggestive of babymaking!!! That is the last thing on my mind. What am I supposed to think... "boy, she got good hips... good for birthing babys!" Give me a break. At least for me, it is an escape from reality, and/or being able to imagine myself living out fantasies that does it for me.

And, the second to last thing I think about is the morality of the actors, or whether they may be putting themselves at risk for an STD. Personally, I couldn't care less about them. It's their live choice, lotsa people make bad life choices I can't do anything about. And I get to worry about my own problems regarding sex (pregnancy, STDs) in real life, those are the last thoughts that enter my mind when I'm looking at porn and escaping from reality.

Just my two cents.

Errrr, because they DON'T WANT A DISEASE!!!!!

They have a right to have good sexual health just as much as anyone else!!!

Just because we get our jollies from watchin it doesn't mean I want them to

take risks like THAT!!!

Thats just selfish.

And anyway I don't buy the whole argument about the 30 day HIV certificate thing.....from what I understand it takes up to 3 months for HIV antibodies to

be formed in the body and show up in a HIV test.

I am not so selfish that I want people to risk getting diseased for my viewing pleasure!!!!!!!!!

I could understand the concerns out there with HIV, but porn is about fantasy. They do things that I dont really get to do, like not wear condoms.

I am not looking at porn for sex education. Those actors are professionals and should see themselves that way. If safety is a concern, then there should be fewer actors doing it who commit to a life style so that it is safe to work in porn bareback. Kind of the same way actors in main steam media are contractually obligated to not gain weight, get pregnate, cut their hair, eccetera.

The married couple porn sounds like a good idea. Evan Stone and Jessica Drake; I could watch them.

But condoms kill the fantasy.

Hey pronatalist

You seriously need to check out Population Connection

Why? Don't you think I know all about the evil ZPG crowd people-haters? I've heard their foolish anti-population propaganda before.

Zero Population Growth? That doesn't even make sense. If there's Zero Growth, then how is it "growth?"

Why do you refer me to a website that isn't even credible, full of liberal anti-people, anti-progress luddite junk-science?

Here's a better website, Population Research Institute, or Pregnant Pause

Our society should be more pronatalist than that, allowing people in mainstream misleadia, teachers, beauty pangeant contestants, whoever, to be visibly pregnant. Why can't an anchorwoman be visibly pregnant? Might even be good for the ratings, until her maternity leave. Not only porn "actors" should enjoy sex bareback, but all married couples should be welcome to enjoy sex how it was meant to be enjoyed naturally, so the inevitable pregnancies, have to have their welcome place all through society.

Not gaining weight, cut their hair, all that's negotiable, depending upon the job, but one's children should never be negotiable. Never rob people of their children, just for a mere job.

Thanks for the compliment on the married couple porn. If there's any way to clean up porn, if there is any such thing, using married couples who want to "share" would be a good start. Hate to think people are being entertained, by promiscuous "actors" spreading around all sorts of nasty diseases. And human procreation, that's just sort of disgusting, when it's faked for the demands of ratings, or whatever nonsense. Isn't the real deal, more curious and interesting, and less demanding upon "actors?"

I've never watched a porn film where the onus has been on sex education!!!! :rolleyes:

What lifestyle are you ON ABOUT?????

How are they ever goin to be completely SAFE to do bareback porn!!!

Bareback porn is never completely safe!!!!

No lifestyle and amount of 30 day testing certificates would make it completely safe.....

I think YOU live in a fantasy world!!!! and you obviously dnt give a damn about the rights of the performers!

I don't think there's ever been any movement to stop married couples from having reproductive sex, P. It's simply a matter of choice if they choose to use contraceptives.

Also, if you're so pro-family, then you should know that not everyone is immediately fit to parent. I work in social work and deal with parents who have kids and a plethora of problems. A society in which people have children and no means to get proper health care during the pregnancies or to support themselves is doing no favor for their children, and that must be taken into consideration. For this reason, and a number of other ones, people choose to use condoms, birth control, etc. and I, for one, respect and celebrate that move. It's a lot more responsible.

Switching gears, it's fortunate for those who hate porn in which people use condoms that there are enough options out there where they can simply watch porn that goes without. Once again: supply and demand. The jizz biz caters to all demographics.

Every job has its risks. Nothing is 100%. From what I hear, working in porn is not what most people think. It is a job, and it needs to be taken seriously. That is the responsibility of the actors, and if they dont take care of themselves, they should not be doing it.

Maybe they can have a short list of people who they will only work with that they trust. Everbody in that inner circle makes the commitment to behave outside of the industry. If that is fantasy world, then they are already gambling and risking their own lives. It is something they should probably consider anyway.

If like porn with condoms, good for you. There is a market, I guess. But that is not what I like and a lot of people dont either for the same reasons already mentioned. I am not thinking about the actors' saftey when I watch porn. I just want to get off.

About giving a damn about performer's rights, why should that be my concern? No one is forcing them to do anything. It is their job to think about their own safety first. And if there is less porn out there because of it, then so be it. There is probably too much out there anyway. I mean, how much can you really watch?

You haven't heard of China's barbaric one-child tyranny? Some enviro-extremists tell lies about how we humans are supposedly naturally growing way too numerous for the good of the planet. What utter nonsense, as we humans are a part of nature, transcend nature, and very much want to grow more prolific, at all sorts of levels. We shouldn't tolerate such junk-science attacks upon the family and traditional family values. If we find more people living in big cities these days, families can enjoy growing just as large, in the big cities, if they have to, or as they do. A more urbanized and populous world, need not at all be hostile to naturally growing families.

If only perfect people had children, the human race would have went extinct long ago.

Whatever are you saying? That only people in countries with good medical care systems, should have children? Not even the U.S. would qualify under such a lofty standard. Sure, I imagine prenatal care is well and good, but people have been having babies naturally for 1000s of years, without all that more "modern" care. Let society change and become more pronatalist, and perhaps expand good prenatal care with advancing real wealth, don't suggest people have less children until it magically gets better, or when will it ever get better, if we don't invest into the future by having our precious darling God-given children?

I reject the rampant contraceptive pushing, but would tend to agree with liberals who may with a naturally growing world population, state a growing need for all the more people to become sexually active. But I, like so many of our ancestors, associate more people enjoying sex with corresponding more babies, emerging from growing numbers of fertile vaginas, quite many using little or no means of "birth control" at all. I want to advocate whatever appropriate changes towards a more populous world, continued large families within the largest of cities, without all the eugenics and racist contraceptive pushing scheming to rob people of their children. I say to let the baby booms grow naturally, human birthrates were never meant to be "regulated," but we should welcome the natural flow of human life to flow naturally, unhindered.

WHAT A HORRID STATEMENT!!!!

HOW INCREDIBLY SELFISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw a football player get carried off the field on a streatcher on Sunday.

I have seen arms break and other bones in MMA fighting.

Do I have a right to tell these professionals that what they are doing is wrong? Don't you think they are aware of the dangers going in?

And I knew you would respond so let me throw this out using your own logic. YOU ARE A BAD PERSON FOR WATCHING PORN.

Why? Because even safe sex is not 100%. Is is not true that the AIDS virus is smaller than the molecular structure of the condom? If you enjoy watching oral sex without condoms or a dental dam, you are enjoying porn in which the actors are still risking their lives! Sure, the numbers go down, but the risk is still there. And given the amount of porn that is produced every year, that small percentage will leak through at some point.

So maybe Anime porn is the solution for you.

So it sounds like it's just certain porn companies that make the actors wear a condom. I thought maybe they wore them because a particular actor in that scene had an STD.

@pronatalist
How do your arguments apply to gay porn?

jovial, why in the world would you have sex with someone that you know has an STD? they use condoms because they want to be protected, that is all. Furthermore they are probably tested prior t the act.

Dn't compare me to you dear!

I've heard that b4....but is it actually proven for definate!!
And even if that is a widespread/wellknown theory...u would not have someone NOT wear a condom to try and stay safe during sex WOULD YOU!!!??????

Oh no sorry you would!! At least in porn anyway!!

Ur absolutely right!! All of us who think porn actors should stay safe should switch to anime!!!! :rolleyes:

No u just want us to support ur theory that porn actors should NOT wear them JUST for people like YOU's viewing pleasure!!!

I tell u what!! Lets all throw away our Johhnies and trust to LUCK!!!!!

Seeing as thats what you suggest the porn actors do, according to your logic we might aswell ALL do that! And only have sex within certain circles/strictly within the bounds of our relationship.....
In this ideal world you live in where where everything is black and white.

And if someone catches aids and dies....well they'll deserve it won't they!!!!????


I REST MY CASE
