For example, above you say "HPV..(the virus responsible for most cervical cancer). " Nice statement. Probably or possibly true. But again, it is just a statement made by you which you would hope/assume that readers would take as documented fact due to the manner in which you presented it.

Then you toss out "...the number of porn performers being exposed by the working male talent who are carriers of this virus would scare most intelligent girls as far from the porn industry as they could get. Should a male performer who carries the hpv virus(and exposed every single sex partner to it) be banned from the industry or be allowed to continue exposing every single sex partner to this virus?" which is thought provoking and on its own presents enough to warrant possible further conversation on its own - without having to resort to facts.

Another example: you also said "Kaden is not even close to the facts regarding std’s, number of performers in the industry, or even how much money the porn industry generates." NOW, if you had prefaced that with "I believe" or "In my opinion" it would have gone from a factual statement neededing vaidation to a statement of opinion. BIG difference.

Kaden is not even close to the facts regarding std's, number of performers in the industry, or even how much money the porn industry generates. Remember, this is the same person who said..."our herpes rate is exactly equal to the genereal public." And Mike responded with the comment...."Excellent post.." Then he deleted my post that challenged Ms. Kross to VALIDATE her statements. Notice how Kaden has never mentioned HPV..((the virus responsible for most cervical cancer). I wonder why? Could it be that the number of porn performers being exposed by the working male talent who are carriers of this virus would scare most intelligent girls as far from the porn industry as they could get. Should a male performer who carries the hpv virus(and exposed every single sex partner to it) be banned from the industry or be allowed to continue exposing every single sex partner to this virus?

Also, the quotes you finally do make above only state what others have stated...it does not prove or disprove or validate anything.

And I've read many things saying how porn makes more than Hollywood and all the major U.S. sports.....combines. But even Mike questions the number about porn aren't true. You make it seem like I just make this stuff up out of thin air:

Shelly is including stats from gay porn as well which tend to skew the numbers because gays are not tested and they have a higher rate of suicide, statistically, in porn or not.

But lets face it mostly Shelly’s numbers are made up.

But then we tell people we are a 12 to 14 billion dollar a year business…..

Whatever.

And South, you certainly are fortunate that you don't have to pay Kayden by the word...
