I've been waiting forever to run this picture...I saw this gem over at scrapetv.com this morning.
Los Angeles, CA – Jenna Jameson, Briana Banks, Stormy Daniels, Jenna Haze, Taylor Rain; All names synonymous with the American adult entertainment industry; all names that are now taking that same industry to task to bring porn into the modern age of workers’ rights with a new organization...
“We are not looking to create unions. That word is very scary for the industry for a variety of reasons and we do not want use that word,” said Desmond Wright, President of the organization. “What we are seeking to is give basic rights to all industry workers and allow them compensation for basic issues, namely work related injuries.”
The organization is not seeking to find compensation for major STD’s or psychological issues, but is instead seeking treatment for smaller day to day injuries that can occur on the set.
“People don’t think of the adult industry as having the same issues as mainstream jobs, but our workers encounter small threats every day,” continued Wright. “Groin pulls, dry skin, injuries from falls, all these things are major issues for the industry. Many people don’t realize that wrist related injuries are responsible for more lost man hours in the industry than any other injuries combined.
Hear that people? Porn stars aren't as worried about STD's or psychological issues as they are dry skin and injuries from falls. As Sean Hannity would say, this truly is the greatest country in the history of the world.
