Britain Moves to Ban Sex Stories
Permalink Closed


An amendment has been tabled by a (unelected) peer that would ban the possession of 'extreme pornographic writing'. The amendment can be read here. Offences would be punishable by up to three years in prison.

The amendment defines extreme pornographic writings as meeting three criteria:

1) Produced primarily or solely for the purposes of sexual arousal

2) Offensive or disgusting

3) Realistically depicts one of the following: serious injury to a person's breasts, anus or genitals, an act which endangers a person's life, sexual interference with an animal, sexual interference with a human corpse

Images which meet these three criteria were banned in January, despite opposition from groups like the Consenting Adult Action Network and the Spanner Trust. This amendment would now ban writing. The amendment is not yet law, but it could very well become law soon.

If you are in the UK, please write to your MP asking them to oppose this amendment and for a personal response from them.

This news has only just broken so they are not covering it yet at the time of writing, but you can visit/donate/join CAAN here and Spanner Trust here.

Yikes. Unbelievable. What in heaven's name, did a story ever do ? I would have thought that producing extreme hard core porn movies would be a target. Is there a law about porn movies in Britain?

*blinks* name one free world govermant of the last... 4000 years?


basicly, goverments worldwide are in 'ban mode', banning and restricting everything they can, and it's all basicly come down to three criteria.

- "war" on terror (dont get me started)
- Copyright/Patents
- Sex

it's a pretty simple step from here to fix this idiotcy in the goverments but it involves 1 small thing.

people thinking for 5 god damned minutes before voting instead of going by "he looked pretty"

the original set up for The US Government was set up as a free world government. The original concept of the colonies was free world. Naturally none of them lasted very long. Also just about all social governments such as Indian tribals. They were very open, and while there were social implications there weren't really 'legal' ramifications to such things. There were plenty of things set up and started as free world in just the last few hundred years. But it always collapses under the voice of the vocal minority bitching while the majority just sits back and lets it happen.


My whole point was that governments always restrict and do little more than cater to people without open minds. Technically BDSM is illegal in its practiced form in England. Just for an example.

This is ridiculous. That is all I have to say. Why do we seem to be moving backwards in terms of censorship now?
Although I don't personally want to read porn-lit about necrophilia, I don't see how it is harmful at all. And who gets to decide what is offensive or disgusting? I'm sure most of what we do in the bedroom would offend and/or disgust somebody out there. Grr at these stupid laws. x

BDSM per se is not illegal. What is potentially illegal is causing injuries that are not 'trivial or transient'. This comes from a court case in the 50s where a group of gay sadomasochists photographed themselves hammering nails through each other's ball sacks and slicing their ****s open and stuff like that. So really serious injury like that has been ruled illegal, but many lawyers believe that if the same case were repeated today the men would have been found innocent, and that they were only found guilty because of prejudice against gays at the time.

There is no question that tying someone up, humiliation and such like are legal. Spanking, caning, flogging, slapping, wax and that sort of thing would all appear to be 'trivial or transient' and thus legal. There was a case a while ago that would appear to have ruled that breathe play is legal (IIRC, woman died when a man was choking her during sex, acquitted of murder as it was an accident and she had consented to being choked).
