So long latex!

The adult industry is ready to take on Measure B, the L.A. county mandate forcing all adult performers to wear condoms. It’s going to be a long, hard fight. Luckily, the adult industry is well equipped to handle things long and hard.

One of the reasons that the industry is fighting Measure B is because latex condoms can be hazardous to performers. I know, it’s confusing. Condoms do “protect” performers from all the regular sex-related hazards (infection & pregnancy) but they aren’t practical for comfort. Think about the worst your skin has ever been chafed and then put it on your labia.

Doesn’t sound like fun, right?

But the problem isn’t just Measure B, it’s the latex condom itself. Don’t be fooled by gimmicks like “ribbed for her pleasure” or “banana flavored”, there have been too few developments in condom-design in recent years. They’ve been pretty much the same since the 1920′s. I mean, how come I can Google the closest gas station to buy condoms on my goddamn phone but I can’t even get the damn things on!?

Condoms need a breakthrough. The good news? It may have already happened with Origami Condoms.

Move over antihistamines.

Getting stuffed up is never fun. All humans like to breathe, it’s one of the few things we all have in common. And when your nose gets clogged up with mucus, it’s a real pain in the neck.

However, neurologist Sina Zarrintan may have figured out a way to make congestion much more fun. Apparently, the best thing to do for clear nostrils when suffering from a cold or hay-fever is to have sex.

And if you can’t have sex, masturbation is just as good.

Believe it or not, sex and or masturbation are the miracle cures we’ve been waiting for!

But how?

The Free Speech Coalition, a porn trade group is calling for a nationwide, temporary moratorium on production. A performer came forward with having syphilis, which motivated this decision. The group is calling on all performers to get tested as well as receive preventative antibiotic shots.

The dreaded swap

Porn giant Manwin shut down production on Friday in the interest of protecting their performers. Manwin has also agreed to cover the costs of the preventative shots along with: Evil Angel, Girlfriend Films, Kink.com, Vivid Pictures, and Gamma Entertainment.

Performers who have test negative for STIs will be allowed back to work 10 days after receiving the shot.

Luckily, syphilis can be treated with one shot of penicillin if a person has had it less than a year. Additional doses are necessary if it has been longer but syphilis is still curable.

Last year, a performer tested HIV-positive and production was shutdown for nearly a week. The result turned out to be a false positive.

For the health of the industry, we hope all performers get tested and get their shots. While we wait to see how this moratorium plays out, we would like to remind you that you can always view some of your old favorite sex pictures and sex videos on Sex.com
