The Condom Mandate [Update]
An ordinance sponsored by the AIDS Healthcare Foundation that requires LA porn productions to use condoms inorder to receive a film permit was tentatively approved last week by the Los Angeles City Council. Today a second vote gave the final approval. The law will go into effect in 90 days, at which point the LAPD can perform spot checks on permitted sets.
The Safer Sex in the Adult Industry Act will not affect films shot in studio. It applies only to permitted locations, like rented houses. I.e., it’ll apply to most sets. Though, I presume some will go guerilla style and film without a permit.
For a while now, the Cal/OSHA and AHF have interpreted a work-safety regulation already in the law books to mean unprotected sex on porn sets to be illegal. Before the passing of this new ordinance that interpretation was barely enforced.
The industry has been vocal on its anti-condom stance, which is disconcerting from an education and health perspective but sensible in a free-speech context.
In regards to health, self-regulation in the industry, such as requiring performers to have STD tests every month, has worked for many if not most. Over the decades HIV cases in the industry have been scarce. No doubt, requiring condoms would give performers the best protection. But it’s worth discussing wether a condom mandate is worth its implications.

Submit to the Spotlight
I might not have indulged in much porn titles last year, but I’m okay with certifying James Deen and Kristina Rose’s fuck in the dark in Manhandled 4 the best sex scene of ’11.
Belladonna performs in and directs Manhandled 4, a rough-sex porno exploring women’s submissive fantasies. Anti-porn disciples may never get their heads around a movie like this one.
Could they understand the thrill of submitting to Belladonna’s light in Deen and Rose’s scene? Instead of pulling focus or choosing a frame, Belladonna uses a spotlight to direct the viewer’s eye in an otherwise pitch-black scene. When the circle of light hits their breathless faces we can still sense hips thrusting. Seconds later all that is visible are genitalia, but we can feel their thrashed expressions. It’s a melody of subtlety and lucidity. It responds to complaints of hardcore pornography being too in-your-face, then assaults the voyeur with what they’re aching for.
More importantly, the scene makes the viewer a submissive participant. You may be jerking off, but Belladonna is calling the shots. You’ll see what she wants you to see. You’ll get turned on on her terms. It’ll last as long she wants. And you will like it.
The spotlight scene is one of the most refreshing and affective in contemporary porn. That’s not to say that the rest of the scenes in Manhandled aren’t superb. The London Keyes and Jordan Ash scene is particularly harrowing, in a good way.
Manhandled 4 is an appropriate pick-me-up to being burnt-out on all the X-Art prettiness.

Bloody Pig Fellatio
Bruce LaBruce, photographer/filmmaker/pornographer, seems to have a taste for ketchup on pork.
If you don’t know of Bruce LaBruce, you are as uncool as I was a few days ago. Lucky for us, learning to be hip is as easy as watching the following trailer, which consists of accolades from people like Richard Kern, John Waters, and Gus Van Sant:
The doc, The Advocate for Fagdom, is currently on its festival run.

Porn producers are getting arty to differentiate themselves from all the crap on the tube sites. Though I love the composition in their stills, Daring Sex is trying too hard with their videos. There’s no need for random shifts to black & white (see below).
