  2. No on Measure B

    Performers in adult films risk their health and their very lives to do their controversial work. Despite advances in the treatment of HIV, there is not yet a cure for the virus, which causes AIDS. New, more virulent and in some cases reportedly untreatable strains of once manageable sexually transmitted diseases continue to appear: syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia. So it stands to reason that government would consider common-sense regulations to protect performers in the workplace. Just as regulations require helmets on construction sites to protect against debilitating head injuries, government could mandate that performers whose work requires sexual contact wear condoms.

  4. TX school debates appropriate age for contraceptive lesson

    One-third of American high school students are sexually active, and that statistic is prompting a Texas school to make some changes to its sex education program. Sex-ed is part of the eighth grade curriculum in the Round Rock School District, but the class does not go into detail about using birth control. Now, some school officials want to change that.

  5. Newton: Porn, safe sex and Measure B

    At first glance, the county's Measure B, which would require the use of condoms in adult films shot in Los Angeles, seems fairly hard to rebut: Other than a few self-interested pornographers, who could be against mandating safe-sex practices?
