Maybe its time for the man to go ahead and hang up his baseball cap, especially when you gotta lie to go to work. This is not lying like saying “No, my shoulder dislocation is good i can lift these heavy boxes.” or “No this isnt whooping cough with a taste of pneumonia. I’m a chef and cooking is what I do”
This is “Yeah i’m clean to go raw, smile in the camera and advertise tube socks.

Porn actor Mr. Marcus has come out and identified himself as the performer responsible for the current syphilis outbreak that has shut down production in the San Fernando Valley.
He believes he contracted the STD on set but admits that he altered his syphilis-positive test so that he could keep performing. His altered test was what started the scare and initiated the industry’s self-imposed 10-day moratorium while actors are tested and treated for syphilis.
“I tried to cover it up… Because I said it was like the scarlet letter. It’s the word. Syphilis, whoa,” Marcus said to XBiz. “Mr. Marcus, syphilis? Mr. Marcus, the one I worked with? The one that everybody works with? The one that’s been in this industry forever?”
In an emotional interview that brought the 18-year veteran actor to tears, Marcus said that he only altered the test because his doctor told him he would not be contagious 10 days after taking a shot of penicillin. “I have to live with this, no one else does,” he said. “I’m very sorry. I did not think that this would come out like this.”
The porn actor was diagnosed with syphilis on July 12, received a penicillin shot on July 13 and returned to work 11 days later, on July 24, AVN reports. However, he still had the STD. Perhaps most disturbing, the producer of the shoot didn’t ask for a paper or digital copy of Marcus’ STD test. Instead, the actor showed a copy of the test on his cell phone so that the syphilis portion wasn’t visible.
For a subsequent porn shoot, Marcus said he folded his test covering the syphilis portion and photocopied it. However, a producer noticed this time that the numbers were missing and called Marcus out on it.
Marcus tweeted Thursday:
Mr.Marcus@akaMrMarcus You can be disappointed, but don’t throw stones. Some of you are living in glass houses.
The porn moratorium comes days after the California Department of Public Health released a report finding that syphilis cases in the Golden State have jumped by 18 percent from 2010 to 2011. Men had a vastly higher rate as it largely affects men who have sex with men. The STD also affected African Americans at a higher rate than any other racial demographic.
Los Angeles County officials have approved a ballot initiative that will ask voters to decide whether porn actors should be required to wear condoms in sex scenes.
I SAY NO I ALREADY HAVE TO STOP PLAYING RUSSIAN ROULETTE WITH MY MAN MAN AND STRAP UP ALLOW PORN TO STILL BE PEOPLE WHO HAVE FUN WITH SEX ! ! !
