Probably a fat and ugly female panel who got all ****y because noone wanted to spank them.

"If no sexual offence is being committed it seems very odd indeed that there should be an offence for having an image of something which was not an offence,"

+1.
Anyone else think this is a bat***k-insane piece of legislation?

Why? That was not supposed to be a 'sex scene' - that was a method of torture to get a man to speak? If he'd willingly sat down in the chair and asked for it whilst appearing sexually aroused then I could understand where you're coming from?

But the porn they're supposedly on about is not meant to appear consensual, as I understand it.

The article says the following will be illegal;

• An act which threatens or appears to threaten a person's life
• An act which results in or appears to result in serious injury to a person's anus, breasts or genitals
• An act which involves or appears to involve sexual interference with a human corpse
• A person performing or appearing to perform an act of intercourse or oral sex with an animal

Can anyone on here honestly say that the depiction of these things should remain legal? What is a good reason to allow these things to continue? Why would people want to watch these things?

Ok, so they're actors - they make it appear non-consensual, but presumably they are agreeing to being filmed and they have a fair idea what they're getting themselves into?

Hair pulling and Waxplay don't take much imagination but I can't imagine what 'Breathplay' is? Do I want to know?!

Some people get off on breath play, it "appears" to threaten a persons life despite the fact that some ladies find it entertaining.

Once again, perfectly legal in the bedroom with a consenting partner, but illegal to watch?


It's the definition (or lack of) that is the problem. Define serious injury if you will?

Making necro-porn illegal... fine, that's pretty sick. Making images of actual rape illegal, fine. But may I point out that both these acts were illegal in the first instance!


I'm of the mind that if 2 people consent to do something of their own free will, and other people want to watch... then crack on. It's noone elses business if someone gets off on watching simulated rape covered in ketchup while breathing through a stick of celery.

One would hope so. Although the fact that you see models returning to certain websites for another go must say something about it...
