Ethical porn
Pink and White Productions has built a reputation as an ethical porn company through its diversity of performers and scenes, and through its hiring practices and work environment. The company features performers of a variety of races, sizes, kinks, ages, appearances (e.g. tattoos and body hair), sexualities, (dis)abilities, and genders. Though the company explicitly seeks to showcase all forms of queer sex, its releases have had a focus on lesbian sexuality and a strong representation from the lesbian community. Most of the performers in the company's releases are cisgender women, trans women, and trans men, but performers of other genders have been featured, including non-binary people and cisgender men.
Pink and White Productions strives for transparent policy and informed consent for performers. The company's ethical production policies include providing resources for sexually transmitted infection testing and safer sex supplies, communicating with crew and cast about scene ideas and limits, paying the same rate for a shoot regardless of performer or type of sex, and including trigger warnings on scenes involving consensual non-consent.
