Depictions of Female Orgasm Being Banned by Classification Board

And another one which is almost as bad

Australian censor board demands large-breasted porn-stars

Alright so some of you may think the second one is a good thing
but those assholes shouldn't be censoring anything of the sort, and it's not exactly going to help women who already have an image problem feel any better about themselves.

Yep, we are pretty backwards here. There is the same ongoing issue with lack of an R18+ rating for video games. The 'average gamer' these days is 35 years old, so obviously they are not just for kids any more. Also, not having this rating means sometimes games that should be R18+ sometimes slip through as an MA game to avoid being completely banned from Australia. Anyway, this is a seperate issue but just shows how stupid it is.

That is silly though. I also understand somewhat, where the small breast issue is coming from but I highly doubt it encourages paedophilia. Just like violence in movies and games turns people in to murderers and rapists... Absurd!

I thought we had some stupid, controlling, regulations in UK. You MUST rise up against such "Nanny State" interference.
Personally I LIKE small breasts, and medium ones, and larger ones (but not too big) - they all happen naturally, and are part
of the variety which is the "spice of life".

Surely the usual statement of models being over 18 when depicted is sufficient.

Down with the bureaucrats who are acting in response to vociferous minorities.

its definitely stupid of these members of parliament. I've decided to join the sex party and have a vote. Might as well help out where I can

still trying to get my head around the stupidity behind all this

I saw this comment on the BBC Formula 1 site; there has been comment about your cops and Hamilton - I think here he would have just been told he was a naughty boy! Comment, please.

"Dean M wrote:
I recently moved to Melbourne from London and when people talk about the nanny state in the UK, it's nothing compared to the nanny state in Australia. Mark Webber is dead right, Australia is a nanny/police state. You need to get permission to blow your nose over here."

Can this really be true?

it does seem to be getting that way

For people who are wondering what this is about - Lewis Hamilton had his car impounded for 48 hours for "delibrately losing traction" (lol I love that police description). So in other words he was doing what many young men do, burnouts and fishtails etc. This happens all the time, yet especially in Melbourne the police have beem cracking down on it over recent months.

I understand that it should not be condoned but it's hardly related to the high road toll. That is speed, drug & alcohol related 99% of the time. They are generally quite strict about this because usually the guys doing this sort of stuff - are the ones who go speeding off in to the night. It's funny the police can't comment on the identification of the driver, even though he has publicly apologised.

I don't know what "Dean M" is talking about in regards to other things though. I'd like him to list some things that warrant such a comment.

I will try to find out, if I can, Lordoth.

I was wondering whether you really ARE getting like the over-regulated UK; we may get a chance to change some of this with our upcoming General election. Excuses given mostly include possible terrorism...
