SACRAMENTO, May 27 (UPI) -- California passed a law Tuesday requiring Adult film actors working in the state to wear condoms while filming unsimulated sex scenes, a move drawing criticism from the adult industry and praise from public health advocates.
"This industry has been largely self-regulated and has done an inadequate job of protecting its employees," said Democratic state Rep. Isadore Hall, who introduced the legislation. "We need to begin to treat the adult film industry just like any other legitimate, legal business in California."
