Carcinogens present in almost all latex products
By: Noecker

It is not widely known through the regular consumer channels that the vast
majority if not all latex products are manufactured in a method that adds
nitrosamines to the product.
Nitrosamines are widely known to be carinogenic in nature.
The latex industry has known that there are nitrosamines present in their
products, but have never warned their customers.
Additionally, there is now available methods to manufacturing latex
gloves, condoms etc. that is free of nitrosamines. This process is
economical and ready to be implemented.
The latex product industry has never been proactive in their research and
development to protect their customers from harm.
Is there anybody that has more information on the legal consequences of
such negligence? Are there any medical studies that have examined whether
there is a causal relationship between the increase cases of cervical
caner and the increased usage of condoms?

Has there been any other studies about links between the nitrosamines and
any other type of cancer?

If anyone can assist me with answers to these questions I would greatly
appreciate it.

So what? Exposure level and sensitivity varies ENORMOUSLY for
different latex products.

Condoms cover a relatively small area of the body and are used for
relatively short periods of time.

Versus getting HIV?

But you don't care. As long as they have bareback sex before your
cameras so you can make money, right Mark?

But in INTERNAL MOIST areas and they are rubbed into the skin.

You don't rub a glove for hours into your hand.

So what? Better that than transmitting an infection!

And with NO evidence of a major risk of ANY kind--indeed, as I posted
elsewhere, condom use may PREVENT penile cancer.

One certainly can! Some people work for hours at a time with gloves.
Custodians, gardners, nurses.
