    Yeah because "on the set" is the only possible place this person could have been infected.

    "The industry's testing-only policy has failed," Assemblywoman Isadore Hall (D-Compton), who wants a statewide requirement for porn actors to wear condoms, said in a statement. "Short of requiring condoms in all adult films, this type of tragedy will continue and California workers will continue to be exposed to injury, harm and potentially death."

    A Democrat who wants to put government in women's vaginas. And anuses too, I suppose, for the pornchicks who take it up the ass. How disappointing! I mean, you expect this anti-choice bullying from the Rethuglicans, but Dems are supposed to be all sexually tolerant and stuff!

    Anyway, I hadn't heard of Cameron Bay, so I looked her up and she doesn't have a very extensive filmography (sort of NSFW).

      You couldn't pay me to fuck her. I like women who, as the saying goes, "fuck like she just got out of prison", but only if they've never actually been there.

        Holy shit.....Don King called....he wants his hair style back!

    2. John Galt   12 years ago

      There has to be a Filner joke in here somewhere.

      1. fish   12 years ago

        There are some challenges to great even for Bob Filner.

  3. fish   12 years ago

    Anyway, I hadn't heard of Cameron Bay.....

    Sure you have.....all the ships dock there!

    1. Mint Berry Crunch   12 years ago

      Nice, that's better than the joke I would have made about how she got her name from her two favorite (mainstream) film directors.

    2. Rufus J. Firefly   12 years ago

      Or....all the dicks dock there.

      No? Anyone? Bah. This audience sucks.

  4. JeremyR   12 years ago

    But what about girls only lesbian porn?

    1. Shmurphy   12 years ago

      And what about the fact that most porn ends with the girls chugging sperm anyway?
