I think you are better off choosing who you fuck wisely than hoping a condom will save your ass or pussy.

I do agree with you, really, that people's perspective on this matter is totally skewed and blown out of proportion. I am much more afraid of car accidents than STD's.
Whoever said in jest we should have warnings that "this is not real" like jackass, etc. I think is actually on to something. I have said it over and over again, that while I'm opposed to regulating or criminalizing content, I do think our responsibility is more to provide at least a little education, warning, and perspective/reminders to people that that what they're seeing is risky behavior, fantasy/acting, would be a crime if done in real life, would be physically painful, is fake, etc. That's where I get really pissed about extreme sites, when they go out of their way to insist everything is REAL, not staged, etc. That was the problem I had/have with the sleep assault site, etc. I don't have a problem with rape fantasies and role plays, but I do have a problem with people presenting them in a way that seems to condone real crime or wants customers to believe a real crime was committed.
While the Max Hardcore exit interview with the girl may have been motivated purely as a get-out-of-jail-free card, I think it's a great thing to do. I think it humanizes the girl and puts the fantasy into the right context (if it's presented to the customer). I think extreme porn (and porn with taboo or dangerous themes) should be presented with a reality check. I try hard to do that myself on our sites. If someone loses their boner because of a reality check then THAT person is the kind of freak I would label as Hammer does: a menace in need of serious help.
I have an interesting anecdote that relates to this, but we're about to eat and go to bed so I'll save it for later.
