The only stipulation id have against the use of condoms is if all performers we're already positive and had been sero-sorted.

Of course, as Patti used to always mention, being positive for HIV doesn't protect you from hep-B, hep-C, syphillis, and various other illnesses. Granted, syphillis is more curable than hep-b and c, but I think people lose sight of the fact that hep-B and C can be as difficult to treat and as life threatening as HIV.

I am a little torn on this issue though because I'm 100% in favor from a public health perspective, but it depends on what sort of restrictions they are going to impose. If they go with the same level of barrier protection required of nurses, etc, that's going to mean condoms for blowjobs and probably restriction of facials and other things, which, while good from a safety perspective, are going to tread dangerously into First Amendment territory.
