Discrimination!

[Nova]

You know that saying, "more than a mouthful's a waste"? Yeah, me neither. And apparently neither does Australia. The country has decided to ban smaller looking breasts from adult content because of pedo-y concerns.

The ban (RC) on small breasted women in adult publications has been made by the Australian Classification Board allegedly on the grounds that such images could be construed as child pornography, even where those publications comply with American law and keep certification that performers are over 18.

Female ejaculation has been banned on the incredible grounds that "the depictions are a form of urination which is banned under the label of 'golden showers' in the Classification Guidelines" and/or "Female ejaculation is an 'abhorrent' depiction." Notably here male ejaculation is completely legal under the same guidelines, attracting an X rating in Australia.

First of all, breasts of all sizes are awesome. And secondly, what's up with this female ejaculation thing? Talk about a double standard. You outta be ashamed of yourself, Australia! And to think Britain used to use you as a giant penal colony. What happened?

Millions Of Extra Sites To Be Censorsed As Australian Gov. Bans Small Breasts, Female Ejaculation [inquisitr]

Opinions?

Australia must be a pretty prosper country. The government must be bored and is searching for something to govern.

I heard about this elsewhere and am curious to see a more official source on the small breast ban, in addition to greater clarification as to what qualifies.

Nonetheless, Australia has been extremely paranoid and vindictive towards anything they think could be tied to child abuse and I'm sure it result in more and more scary laws that put innocent people in jail.

The funniest thing about this is that the most active distribution of child pornography (as child porn is defined anyway) focuses on adolescents under 18 but (usually susbtantially) post-pubescent and likely to have cup sizes that don't invalidate whatever criteria Australia puts forth. So they'd be banning a lot more legal porn than illegal, but I guess if it's any POSSIBLE deterrent to getting pics some teenager willingly uploaded then it's worth banning millions of sites and costing ridiculous amounts of revenue, and probably throwing people in jail for.

At least if they had chosen criteria like "doesn't look over 18" it'd make a little more sense - it'd still be stupid, paranoid, and grossly discriminatory, but it wouldn't quite be this.

And calling female ejaculation urination is incredibly ignorant, I can't believe anyone still believes such a thing. Best of all it's largely involuntarily, so now women are being told that something they can't control is disgusting. I kinda wonder if this legislation isn't being put forth by bitter woman who can't get an orgasm.

Oh Australia. It should be said straight up that Fiona Patten, the Eros Foundation and the Australian Sex Party - the people who outed this policy - are known for their Michael Moore style tactics in turning a story into a much bigger story. But that's ok, because a little more outrage is what this country needs. We're getting thoroughly done over by conservative lunatics and not enough people are taking notice.

Here's what else is happening right now:

• Plans to censor the internet (through ISP-level filtering) have been approved. (more info)

• Video games continue to be denied an R18+ rating, meaning many games are censored or just banned. (more info #1 #2)
• South Australia is now wrapping all R18+ movies in brown paper bags. This includes normal films like Pulp Fiction, Fight Club etc. (article)

This stuff is horrifying, and people aren't taking enough notice. But now that boobs and ejaculation are in the firing line, a whole new group of people are going to take notice: Everyone. And the more people they upset, the brighter a spotlight is cast on all the crazy crap they're trying to do. So bring it on you nutbags.

I heard about this on Slashdot or something. Supposedly it does exist, but in porn it's faked with piss, and Australia doesn't allow porn to have piss in it.

Because they're insane.

Urine. :blink:

This shouldn't be too much of a problem, I hear most Australian lasses have big tits anyway

If it exists (and it does, I'm absolutely certain of this) then at least some of it in porn has to be real.

 

[(naw)mcx]

The proof is in the tasting.

eww.

 

[fischju2000]

Everything in porn is fake, including that. But in truth the Skene's gland, around the urethra in a woman, produces a clear alkaline fluid. The volume of fluid produced varies with all woman, though you can assume 'squirters' in porn is in fact urine. There have been a lot of studies, none are conclusive. It's a mystery down there.


More on topic, was a member of Parliament in Australia tortured by tying him to a chair and looping a teen squirter DVD or something? It's ridiculous.

Copious lubrication never hurt anyone.

oh australia

Australia's trying really hard to pretend that they're not the #1-ranked country in the world for sin.

That study is the #1-ranked study of the lamest studies of all time :lol:

You think women can squirt out a magic fluid that isn't piss and it isn't medically documented?

It's piss, it might be mixed with natural lubrication, but it's still piss.
