Personally, I think in the real world, if you are fucking "real" heterosexual people you meet in "real" life...far far away from porn, strippers, etc. You are probably pretty safe. Those stats are really low.
I mostly stay away from productions that have real safety issues. The boys are usually boyfriends of the girls but mostly I do girl girl and single girl stuff.
Outside of that it is condoms. But most of the people I work with, I know and trust. It is the trust that is the biggest problem in the porn business. Honesty is no a commodity with a lot of currency in this game.

And I hate shooting boy girl stuff. Its time consuming, expensive and boring as stink.

Sometimes I tend to believe that the primarily conservative-run media tends to blow these things out of proportion in an attempt to attribute any negative attention then can on the adult industry.

It's easy to get freaked out, but when you consider the thousands of performances in adult every month, it's a miracle it doesn't happen more often.

I think I would disagree with the idea that away from porn and what not your risk levels drop. I mean, we have more than 22 cases of HIV/ AIDS in the country right now, which means that the majority of the transmission is happening outside. In that "real world" you speak of. Where stats are "low."

Actually, though, when I review the CDC's information out there for the last compiled year (2007*), new infection rates are about 16% of population in both white and black males and between 3 and 8% for white and black females. Scarier? Roughly 14% of the male populations between the ages of 14-29 are newly infected.

I think it's safe to say that I'd rather fuck a porn star.
