Yea, this will surely work out.

You know, there’s a fun observation to be made here: for every perversion you ban, the more niche ones move further up the view list. In essence, short of a complete porn ban (which is their final goal), they’re likely to make the problem worse.

In terms of boys learning violence from this kind of porn - surely the online safety act is doing that right? Of course not; that act has failed gloriously and this proposed change evidences that.

The real solution they should be considering is strong messages about “safe, sane, consensual”. Stick it up on posters, make it a mandatory banner on porn sites (who would complain, really), even take that shit into schools (it’s good practice even for vanilla). The real issue isn’t the acts themselves, it’s the way we talk about them, or more don’t!

To anyone celebrating this: you’re defending a fucking bad faith law!

Does any of the recent anti-LGBTQ+ laws are just to protect little Jimmy being a “little confused”, to protect him from “making life altering decisions”? Did any of the Nazi anti-Jewish laws were only made to stop predatory banking? Fuck no! And fuck you if you think we can just "undo it easily later on: no one wants to be the “pervert politician”, no one wants to be smeared by the opposition as “the real misogynist” or a “pervert being occupied with things other than the economy”, so no one will do it.

I don’t like choking in porn. The problem is a failure of both the lack of sexual education, and not holding platforms accountable for replatforming the likes of Andrew Tate, not some smut.

The way they define choking would also ban a lot of sucking scenes.

The porn industry is now in non-consenting bondage

I am… Rather older than most of you, in all probability. My partner likes being choked; not hard, not actually cutting off air or blood, but the sensation of hands or an arm around their throat. They also like being caned, and spanked; I’m into fairly serious rope bondage (as a rope top) and CNC.

Under British law, a large percentage of the sexual activities that we both enjoy together would be criminal offenses.

For what it’s worth, in the 1920s, oral sex was considered shocking to moral sensibilities, perverted, an affront against nature, and grotesquely obscene. I suspect that the view from the year 2100–should humanity survive that long–will see choking in much the same way.

If the argument for the ban is that depiction normalizes it, then there should be a ban on violence in all media, right?

Ah….so this is why confused dog Tucker expressed his moral outrage at this activity, completely unprompted, to known Nazi Nick Fuentes who is on the record very recently and repeatedly over the years of his wasted youth as a hate mongering whelp and a self-loathing failson, stating that women should have all of their legal and human rights taken away.

If I didn’t know how exploitative the current porn industry is I’d defend the choking but holy shit producers are fucking vile.

I suppose I would file this one under massive sex education failure, if youths are having to learn about sex from porn there’s already a problem.

I already don’t like that kind of shit, it’s an immediate turn-off for me.

But - I also know there’s a whole kink around it, and as long as it’s consensual…who tf cares?

I’ll forward any I find to my local MP

Do politicians of liberal democracies not understand that constructive expression (eg, an education campaign), not law, is the way a liberal democracy combats misguided expression?

These authoritarians need to cut to the chase with their excuses & ban breeding. You know how dangerous childbirth is? Compound that with the consequences of birth: everyone born dies. Altogether, a terribly dangerous idea.

Let this be the last human generation.

The morality police in the UK strike again. They’re slowly turning into Saudi Arabia the longer they keep this up.

So men don’t get choked? Why are these things always gender specific?
