Law Requiring Condoms on Porn Shoots Takes Effect Monday

The Los Angeles City Council’s ordinance requiring porn actors to wear condoms during filming takes effect Monday.

The Los Angeles-based AIDS Healthcare Foundation has advocated such a measure for years; the council approved it in January. “This is definitely a milestone in this long battle for safety in adult films, but we still have a long way to go,” said Michael Weinstein, president of AHF.

The organization continues to collect signatures to support a similar measure covering the whole county. City officials are continuing to work through the details of how the law will be implemented.
