However, although I support Chi Chi La Rue decision to leave Vivid because she does not like their "condom-optional" policy, I also feel that Vivid (or any producer) has a right to adopt a "condom-optional" policy if they like, or even a "no condom" policy. After all, there are plenty of performers who are happy to work without them (and a few who prefer to work without them) and there a few producers who have a "condom only" policy that people like Chi Chi La Rue can work for.

In other words, I don't see Chi Chi La Rue's leaving Vivid as an example of ethics, just a personal choice on her part not to accept high risk employment.
