Concerns about STI testing, sexual discrimination lead to creation of Japan Porn Actors Association

On April 1, veteran actors from within the adult video (AV) industry established the Japan Porn Actors Association (JPAA) in an effort to improve working conditions.

Appearing on the group’s board of directors is actor Taku Yoshimura, who tells Nikkan Gendai that one concern is the spread of sexually transmitted diseases.

“The first step is to to ensure that actors receive a test for STDs once every four weeks,” says Yoshimura.

Discounts for testing will be available. Members going to a clinic in Tokyo’s Shinjuku Ward will be eligible to receive an examination for 8,500 yen, as opposed to the standard 10,000-yen fee.

“In May, we are inviting a specialist to host a workshop on the prevention of STDs,” says Yoshimura.

The site has approximately 50 performers currently enrolled. A membership fee of 20,000 yen is required. A profile for each actor lists a number of characteristics, including height, weight, penis length, the probability of achieving a full erection and hobbies.

AV writer Kazuo Kajiyama says that another challenge faced by the industry’s stick men is sexual discrimination.
