Porn stars to wear condoms in LA

A new municipal law requiring porn stars to wear condoms during film shoots in Los Angeles is all set to become effective in the next few weeks.

London: A new municipal law requiring porn stars to wear condoms during film shoots in Los Angeles is all set to become effective in the US city in the next few weeks, a media report here said.
Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa Tuesday signed an ordinance into law requiring male actors in pornographic videos to wear condoms. The ordinance was passed by the City Council last week.
Having been approved by the city`s mayor, the law will be effective in the next six weeks, the Daily Mail reported. According to officials with the AIDS Healthcare Foundation, which lobbied for years for such a law, they would now turn their attention to getting a similar condom requirement adopted elsewhere. Michael Weinstein, president of the AIDS Healthcare Foundation, which had pursued for the measure for six years, said: "The city of Los Angeles has done the right thing. They`ve done the right thing for the performers." Its adoption is crucial in protecting adult film actors from HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases, said Weinstein, adding that his group`s next move will be to get Los Angeles county to adopt a similar measure for its unincorporated areas. But critics claim the regulation jeopardises the industry`s long-term future in the nation`s porn capital as many firms have threatened to abandon the area. IANS
