I must admit, I didn't see any pornography last time I was buying my frozen nuggets.

The Torygraph wrote: The unprecedented censorship is justified by fears about damaging effects of the internet on children and women I thought it was mostly men watching porn.
Other than that, how many political correctness errors can you count in that sentence?

I thought that then I realised it wasn't from the POV of the user:
The Torygraph later wrote: from the perspective of the harm it does to the women who appear in it
Presumably the fat piles of cash they make, at least in the reputable stuff.
It does seem to be the cry of every modern government "We're introducing outrageous policy [X] as it is [harming our children]|[for counter terrorism purposes]"

Reputable porn. That's a bit of an oxymoron isn't it.
The loss of 300000 possible customers won't do sh*t against the porn industry. But Iceland would be the country to do it, Iceland got prohibition in 1915, which wasn't completely lifted until 1985.
So you know who's running the country.

There's also some interesting statistics to be found about that.
When they lifted the ban on beer, the suicide rates went down!

Well, I've learned something today, if it floats like a duck and it quacks like a duck than it is probably a lesbian.

You can easily tell when there is a hidden agenda when they start off spouting phrases like:
"It is looking a pornography from a new position - from the perspective of the harm it does to the women who appear in it and as a violation of their civil rights."
Did any of them actually talk to "the women who appear in it" I wonder?
If you get an email telling you that you can catch Swine Flu from tinned pork then just delete it. It's Spam.

The Internet has scarred another victim. That's a mental image that isn't going away any time soon.

Yeah.
Things to have with with a nice Rump Steak: onion rings
Damnit! I used to enjoy them.
It was bad enough when one of our cats put me off parsnips for life...

So that's Saudi and Iceland added to my list of places not to go to, both in one day.
At that rate, by the end of the month I'll be lucky if I can go past the end of the street.

Good for them. It's about time someone stands up to that filth.

How do you know it's filthy? Have you watched?
|
|

I'll assume that is an attempt at humor, but in all seriousness, you don't have to watch it to know it is filthy.

I've seen some shower scenes that weren't. Seriously though, is making love to your wife considered filthy?

I'm saying it's something private that consensual adults enjoy and should not be banned from the government, just like porn.

Quote: it's something private There's the key.
Do you want to expose your children to violent or naked pictures on billboards? How about on cereal boxes? Yes, I know some places have billboards that way but I am glad that there are some civilized rules to prevent those things.
