Arrow Offers Alternative Work to HIV+ Performers

-- A positive HIV test may not be the end of a career in the adult industry for adult performers. \n"Just because you can no longer perform in front of the camera doesn't mean you can't remain in the X-rated community and play a vital, active role --- whether it be in dancing, sales, office work, Internet appearances or a host of other jobs," said Arrow Productions honcho Ray Pistol. \nPutting his money where his mouth is, Pistol continued:\n"I urge any adult performer --- or anybody in the adult entertainment community --- who has tested positive and is in need of work to contact our Communications Department immediately, and we will try to match your skills and experience with our needs. This is not charity; we're offering real jobs."\nArrow Productions is located in a Las Vegas adult entertainment complex that includes strip clubs, peep shows, video stores, and Internet services. Pistol pointed out that there are numerous employment opportunities for attractive, intelligent former porn stars within his organization.\nPistol called for other, L.A.-based porn producers to do the same in their non-sex support services.\n"I can certainly understand the major video companies taking the steps they have in regards to HIV to protect themselves, their pocketbooks and the welfare of adult actors in the future.\n"But we have a group of people who are in trouble now, and need our help now, which I believe morally and ethically requires us to help them, now."\nArrow Productions' number is (702) 453-1795.
