So my site is going condom only now... would that change your mind to promote it? - GoFuckYourself.com

So my site - www.povporn.com is going condom only now... would that change your mind to promote it?

If so... why? Arent you looking at the girl instead of the dick?

I use super thin Avanti see thru condoms, but why would anyone care anyways?

I have to set an example to my viewers - I feel that it is my responsibility.

So I get a few less sign-ups... and save a few lives - the payoff is worth it.

The moment of truth is upon us all - think with your heart instead of your wallet.

Who is with me?

Mutt · 04-16-2004, 10:21 AM

Good decision man. Not sure how or if it will affect sales. The real hardcore fans always say they don't like condoms but as u say, not worth losing lives over.

I'm hearing some rather bizarre news that there are lots of girls who want to work very much including boy/girl, agents getting calls to get them jobs. Guys who aren't on the second generation lists getting tons of work offers.

Joesho · 04-16-2004, 10:22 AM

If you are saving lives, is that cuz you know you have HIV at the moment? Nice speech btw and good idea as well, that line just seems cheesy to me sorry

I'm trying to set a precedence for the industry & my viewers about safe sex. Alot of people watch & mimic porn - we, starting with me, should set an example. I get tested now every 2 weeks now, thinking of doing it every week cept needles scare the shit outta me.

arial · 04-16-2004, 10:39 AM

Nope, sex is sex, with or without a condom.

gornyhuy · 04-16-2004, 10:39 AM

I know its important for safety reasons, but I gotta be honest:
the whole point of POV is to picture yourself in the action and when I see a condom in porn it turns me off. I generally will move on to some other content.

But I'll take Captain America as a compliment too... I just don't want my dick to melt a pussy or to melt from a pussy like kryptonite does to superman-penis.

Dugmor · 04-16-2004, 10:48 AM

I have never shot with out a condom in my life ........ I have never see any less sales

..... It is all I know.

You can add you name to producers that shoot condom only and seem to be doing well.

Your timing will possibly make it seem like you are "jumping on a bandwagon". If you are going to be promoting your content as condomed, I wouldn't use words like "now" or anything else to draw attention to it being a recent switch.

Roy -
Good to see that you are being responsible with the matter and really who gives a fuck if you loose a couple of sales from it ... you are saving someones life and if these jackoffs do not know how small the porn community is in LA that just shows how stupid they really are...

Good looking out for the talent but can i come by and use the stripper pole in the living room .. LOL ....

teenoffice · 04-16-2004, 11:36 AM

i wouldnt change my mind since i only care about my revenue, surfer's don't like rubbers.

It sounds a bit hard but i can always use money so why should i care and change my site's ? because a few pornstars got HIV infected ? that's their problem not mine.

steffie · 04-16-2004, 11:38 AM

We have been online since 1996 and NEVER EVER shot without condoms.. I seen no downward trend or lost revenue however I never did anything without condoms and I don't have any pictures (of me with strangers) without condoms on my site, so I guess I wouldn't know how much money I lost .. (plenty of no condom pictures with me and hubby or couples)

BJ's has been difficult over the past years. We started of by not wearing condoms (for the girls sake) lately however we have done pictures where the guys wore condoms for the girls protection.

Sometimes we get funny colored once and make it a game out of it. (Don't ask,, were just weird over here lol)

Plus they have flavored once too..

So thumbs up for you all who use protection. We do however shoot lots of couples, there are never any condom uses ;-))

SleazyDream · 04-16-2004, 06:13 PM

i think it's a good move.

i don't find any difference in condom or non condom sex - assuming it's a stage condom - meaning a thin clear hard to see one. not the same thing people would use in real life anyway in most cases.

but - - blowjobs with condoms kinda ruins the whole thing for me and i wouldn't think surfers would be any different

Spam? You need help. To walk a thousand miles starts with a single step. You have no idea the pressure by producers, directors, distributors and consumers to go bareback. The decision I have made is not a popular one at all and FYI - no-one has signed up for my program today. I make this stand as a welcome & chalenge for others to do the same - that is the only way to contain this - be setting an unpopular example. Well behaved people rarely make history.

Besides, it was a hypothetical question.

You're really only confirming what I said. We're all in this biz, or at least most of us on this board are. But we all operate our lives on different principles and with different ethics. I don't see why this would be such a major move for you unless you're only care has been making as much money as you possibly can at any expense.

Personally I've never lived that way and don't think I ever will. I'll make what I can make living within my own ethics and morals and if I'm not a billionaire at least I'll still be happy with myself. So if in your heart it matters then go with the smart decision and use the condoms.

I had movie deals with major distributors that wont buy content with a condom. I turned down ALOT OF MONEY for this decision - more money than all the sigs on GFY for a few years - even Aaron M.'s. - for each series. I'll just have to look harder for a diferent distributor that cares about the talent more.
