BRITAIN BANS “FETISH” PORN … BUT NOT FOR THE REASONS YOU MIGHT IMAGINE
By FITSNEWS || The United Kingdom has imposed sweeping new regulations on internet pornography – banning a host of fetishes in what appears to be an effort to wipe out an entire segment of its adult entertainment industry.
The 2014 “Audiovisual Media Services Regulations” – which went into effect this week – are purportedly intended to safeguard the public from deviant content that could conceivably “impair” children. In reality, though, the whole thing appears to be an effort to shut down small-to-medium sized content providers in an effort to secure additional market share for larger studios that produce little specialized content.
“While mainstream porn will be peddled without fear by the large studios – often owned by the same media moguls who denounce the ‘sexualisation’ of our culture – more niche, less clichéd sexual interests will disappear,” one industry expert told Vice. “It’s the corporate shopping chain crushing independent shops on the high street by piling it high and marketing it to the dumbest common denominator.”
Either way, it’s censorship …
According to Vice, these are the “acts that are no longer acceptable …”
… spanking, caning and whipping beyond a gentle level; penetration by any object “associated with violence”; activities that can be classed as “life-endangering”, such as strangulation and facesitting; fisting, if all knuckles are inserted; physical or verbal abuse, even if consensual; the portrayal of non-consensual sex; urination in various sexual contexts; and female ejaculation.
Ummm … hmmm.
“It’s a strange, highly-subjective list of sexual behavior deemed too deviant for folks to be exposed to,” Elizabeth Nolan Brown over at Reason noted.
We concur …
Seriously … how is female ejaculation banned yet male ejaculation is still permitted? Wait … that’s something every woman has asked themselves at least once in their lives, isn’t it?
All kidding aside, whatever the motivation behind these new regulations is … they’re ridiculous (even if they only apply to pornographic content produced in the United Kingdom, not other countries).
Don’t get us wrong: There is bad porn out there. For example the production, marketing or sale of any sort of child pornography – or pornography depicting any non-consensual sex act (or a sex act committed against an animal) – should be criminalized. Why? Because by definition, non-consensual sex is a violation of one’s individual liberty.
Which is why this website has praised efforts by local authorities to crack down on such filth …
But the performance of consensual sex acts by consenting adults – no matter how bizarre some people may view them – should never be criminalized. Nor should people’s ability to make a living off of producing, marketing or selling such acts on film – especially when the intention behind such regulations is to provide an unfair market advantage to a larger competitor.
Sadly, we suspect Britain’s ban could soon become a model for porn censorship here in the United States …

What the fuck??
also known as ‘squirting’.females also have a urethra.some women have the equivalent of a male’s ejaculation
In questionnaire surveys, 35–50% of women report that they have at some time experienced the gushing of fluid during orgasm.Other studies find anywhere from 10–69%, depending on the definitions and methods used. For instance Kratochvíl (1994) surveyed 200 women and found that 6% reported ejaculating, an additional 13% had some experience and about 60% reported release of fluid without actual gushing. Reports on the volume of fluid expelled vary considerably starting from amounts that would be imperceptible to a woman, to mean values of 1–5 ml.
The suggestion that women can expel fluid from their genital area as part of sexual arousal has been described by women’s health writer Rebecca Chalker as “one of the most hotly debated questions in modern sexology.” Female ejaculation has been discussed in anatomical, medical, and biological literature throughout recorded history. The dichotomy between the interest devoted to female ejaculation and the basic acceptance of its male counterpart has been questioned by feminist writers.
To date, there have been no conclusive or major studies relating to female ejaculation. The largest study being an internet survey consisting of 320 participants. Much of the problem in arriving at a consensus relates to a failure to adopt generally agreed-on definitions or research methodology. Research has used highly selected individuals, case studies, or very small numbers of subjects, making generalization difficult.
For instance, much of the research into the nature of the fluid focuses on determining whether it is or contains urine. There are also problems involved in the collection of specimens and issues of contamination. Since the area of interest is para-urethral glands, it is impossible to completely separate the secretions from urine, especially considering that there may be retrograde ejaculation into the urethra towards the bladder.
The best current data comes from studies where women have abstained from coitus, and where their own urine is used as a control both pre- and post-orgasm. Research has attempted to use chemicals that are excreted in the urine so that any urinary contamination can be detected.
Further methodological issues include the fact that the composition of the fluid appears to vary with the menstrual cycle, and that the biochemical profile of the para-urethral tissues varies with age. Other issues relate to the sensitivity and specificity of the markers chosen. The key questions are the source of the fluid produced, and its composition.
Some aspects of the research community distinguish between female ejaculation and what is colloquially known as squirting or gushing. These terms are used by the public interchangeably, which can lead to confusion. In these research publications, it is suggested that “real” female ejaculation is the release of a very scanty, thick, and whitish fluid from the female prostate, while the “squirting” or “gushing” (shown frequently in pornography) is a different phenomenon; the expulsion of clear and abundant fluid, which has been shown to be a diluted fluid from the urinary bladder. It is suggested that much of the obscurity and the uncertainties about female ejaculation are related to mixing up these two phenomena.
In the United Kingdom, the British Board of Film Classification has banned films alleged to show female ejaculation, claiming that the expert medical advice it received was that there is no such thing as female ejaculation, and therefore the films deemed to show urine.
Easy on the Eye Productions released a press announcement on October 6, 2010 stating that the BBFC passed the DVD Women Love Porn (containing a scene including female ejaculation in the scene “Top Milf”) on advice of legal counsel when the director, Anna Span, pushed for a hearing with the Video Appeals Committee.
The BBFC maintains that it does not accept the existence of female ejaculation and its “position remains fundamentally unchanged for future releases”. Easy on the Eye Productions considers it a “historic victory”.According to the Carnal Nation site, the issue was first raised by the group Feminists Against Censorship (FAC) in 2001.
Henry to Pickering in ” My Fair Lady”: Why can’t a women be more like a man?
Because 8 billion people is enough?
They can debate that all they want, but it’s very real. And it’s not piss.
Why in the fuck would they ban this? Personally doesn’t turn me on, but what’s wrong with it?
They think it’s piss.
It is real and it was a turn-on for me. She was a “gusher” and it was not piss.
Perhaps Elizabeth, or more interestingly, Taylor, will write an article on what it really is.
Elizabeth Taylor?
She’s quite dead.
I was referring to the two chicks on this site who seemingly have nothing interesting to write about except baby names and hamburgers.
At least a discussion on female ejaculation would be an interesting one–especially from the younger one.
might as well invite Feynman to discuss quantum physics.
It’s a medical fact.
I wonder if they’ll ban my site for making/posting cabbage porn.
I lubricate it generously first too.
Wasn’t Portnoy’s complaint that his mom didn’t buy enough liver?
His desire for realism, rather than producing concupiscent thoughts, makes reality seem sick.
Is that a direct quote from the novel?
No.. I was waxing.. uh.. stupid.
Actually, it does sort of make some kind of sense depending upon which way I lean my head as I read it. As for the “wax” it’s really good enough to put a spit shine on my Florsheims.
I have this ability to look at a subject as if I were a member of an audience watching a movie.. and rather than merely passively viewing the movie, and letting the ideas drift through my head and disappear, I can “listen” and “hear” what I’m thinking.. and that’s like, you know, figuring out the plot before it happens.
Well, after “watching the movie,” I have a bunch of mental notes about how deep the movie was, and how easy it is to miss the more subtle aspects of it… as though it was created for no other purpose than to communicate those subtle ideas though film.
So, rather than depending on my own dearth of imagination and insipid, pedestrian, boring perspective on everything, I have this genius screenplay/director’s imagination to draw upon.
In my mind, I still blame Berg.
THEY’LL HAVE TO PRY TBG’S BRAZILIAN GOAT PORN OUT OF HIS WARM STICKY FINGERS!!!!!
Brazilian? That’s a lot of goat porn!
Badaboom… psssssh!
Walking by the watermelon patch, the three of us… Bez, Food Fetish and I, getting slowly drunk in the moonlight… Food Fetish leading the charge by about a quart of shine… Bez and I cleverly began to go on about the days when we used to get drunk and smooth out a hole in a big melon, and slip into it and talk to it – by the names of our high school sweethearts… we had such a time, laughing and carrying on about “those days,” Food Fetish, staggering along, laughed even louder…
until finally, he wandered into the patch and cut himself a notch… howling out his wife’s name into the cool spring night air.
Bez and I left him there.. and the next day, at a chance meeting the sheepish look on Food Fetish’s face and ours, rivaled the humors of the gods.

And you shall not lie with a cabbage and so make yourself unclean with it, neither shall any woman give herself to a cabbage to lie with it: it is perversion.
Well, I wash it first, so it’s cool cause it’s all clean and stuff.
I’m not a cabbage, but I do speak for them.
Great. I only liked coleslaw and now no more.
Obama bent and reamed FITS with an Obama care staff….and this Ignorant MoFo just squealed and begged for more…now if they want to take away his snuff movies, he jumps to action…
FITS: It’s Dumb@$$#$ like you who always figure it out last…Hitler denounced meat, then banned cigarettes before he came for the Jews…You idiots won’t get it, until you GET IT…and Obama will LHAO at you, while you cry…
Obama and Hitler in the first two sentences on a porn article? Are you skitzo?
Schizo would be a compliment for this guy – either he’s had a major stroke, been in an accident depriving him of oxygen too long, malaria, has a rare form of Tourette’s, autistic or was born with just barely more mental energy than is required to breathe.
Funny how as Obamacare is crashing on itself, ‘Hands Up’ is exposed as a lie for idiots, and the voters slapped the P!$$ out of you, as I said they should…you become consumed with me…mad indeed…
If provocation were gold, I’d be rich beyond Soros…You’re not used to being challenged, and it’s horrible when it come from a much bigger mind that reads you like Obama reads the Communist Manifesto…You know I’m right, and that makes it irresistible…
actually, you’re more like a dead squirrel I pass on the street… couldn’t make up its mind which way to run.
“it’s horrible when it(sic) come from a much bigger mind”
Did you mean imagination?

indigestion?
Good grief man! Are you a doctor or do you spend all your time in a library?
There’s a special place in my heart for Damned Tango.
then banned cigarettes
——
how about other addictive substances that might kill you, like meth and heroin? Are you for the legalization of bath salts, huffing toluene, and allowing carcinogens in food as well as cigarettes?
Hitler was a vegetarian too…and forced it on the German people, because they were technically government property, as he saw it……remind you of anyone else????… (: ….
reminds me of you – using government to preach at us, and control our behavior, so that we all act more like you do… a sycophant with an abdicated will.
“Hitler was a vegetarian too”
…and as a meat lover, that bothers you.

MOLON LABIA!
on 3 March 1957 during a battle in Cyprus between members of the EOKA organization and the British Army. After someone had betrayed his location, the British forces surrounded the secret hideout of the second-in-command of EOKA,Grigoris Afxentiou, near the Machairas Monastery. Inside the hideout were Afxentiou and four of his followers. Realizing he was outnumbered, Afxentiou ordered them to surrender themselves whilst he barricaded himself for a fight to the death. The British asked Afxentiou to come out and surrender. He replied with the phrase Molon labia, imitating the ancient Spartan Condoms. Unable to get him out, and after sustaining casualties, the British set fire to the hideout, and he was burnt alive. The British buried his body in the yard of the central jail of Leftkoastia, where it lies today.
I’m familiar with some of those stories, and have met a few of the participants when I lived there. The British military guys were ass-kickers and worse, but enjoyable company. They easily admitted burning the Greeks who wouldn’t come out of their hidey-holes, and showed me where some of them were.
Britain has the worst porn in the world.Due to some of my leches,German(they’re all uncut) porn is second only to the good old USA.Entertainment is what we do best,and our breeding maneuvers are second to none.One of my favorite porn stars is,Rod Fontana who’s from SC.He does straight porn only.No one in porn movie history can shag like this man can.Go Cocks!
“fisting, if all knuckles are inserted”
So thumb pinched with four fingers…..OK, just keep those darn knuckles dry or you might be doing something bad. I need a doctor on here, are all three joints considered knuckles? Just the “back” ones?
Three joints in, you’re lucky if you can still find the hole.
Har har.
I still hate tv for the little alien they brought on the Flintstones
There’s a scandinavian girl. just a wisp.. like the Who says.. such a subtle wrist…
Wait. By “female ejaculation”, do they mean having a very moist orgasm or actual squirting?
They’re talking piss.
“spanking, caning and whipping beyond a gentle level”
Le vice anglais? Illegal in UK?
Republicans would never stand for that in the US.
Lot’s of them lay down for it, though.
BAM!
Don’t seem natural, do it?
A genteel spanking, yeah, that’s possible. But caning? That’s some intensely violent shit right there.
If they ban Jana Cova, i will NEVER set foot in the UK.
she’s only got a few useful years left, you know.
True. But SUCH a body of work! (:
ahh.. I remember the transition from the old crappy 70’s and the slow influx in the 80’s.. bad acting.. and the explosion of satellite porn… and the beautiful young babes of the 90’s followed by 20 years of sensory overload…
…or *cough* I would, if I followed that sort of thing… and .. had… an interest in… and didn’t have a commitment to seeing women break out of those old body-centric stereotypes… and *ahem* see women for the beautiful.. *spiritual*… creatures that.. deserve..
DON’T TAKE AWAY SQUIRTING GODDAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!
Everybody remember the Republicans love the NSA snoop doggy dogg?
http://blogs.rollcall.com/218/gop-blocks-nsa-sexual-assault-amendments/
Its just pee, anyway.
Do they *really* think simply *having access* to gross shit will cause kids to go off the rails?
When I go to take a shit or piss, I look.. been doing that since I was old enough to walk.. but it never turned me on. If I bear any scars from my childhood from piss, it would be from gas-station restrooms.
I didn’t need a priest or a politician to tell me that piss and shit isn’t sexy – I figured that out all by myself..and just look how well *I* turned out!
I guess the British decided the reason so many of them are so fucked up is because they got hold of the “wrong” kind of porn.
The guys that want to ban it must suspect that it’s pretty arousing, otherwise, why would they want to glamorize it?
It does seem random, at best.
Why not base their decisions on science, instead of magical thinking?
Watch, this will be the ONE fucking thing where we follow the “European model.” Just when I was getting into watersports.
