Australia censorship

(this report has not been confirmed yet)
If you're not aware of it, Australia is quickly becoming a Orwellian state in which the rights of it's citizens are being rapidly reduced. This is just one of many rather psychotic moves their anti-sex leagues have made, and it doesn't look like it's going to end there. And while things like this may happen on the small scale in america it's happening country wide in Australia. Pray for our mates from down under, for I fear they will soon be reduced to fapping to shots of women's ankles.

When I read the title of the thread, I expected it to be worse.
I was thinking that you meant small-breasted women would be required by law to get implants or something.
Damn you for skewing the conclusions my brain jumps to Orwell and Huxley!

Huh. Oh well, even without that you must admit that australia is becoming rather tight assed. They're banning books and games and anything that old ladies don't like. They banned lolita for gosh sakes! I mean I know it's a controversial book but it's been regarded as a classic for many years. Libraries have it for god sakes!

Oh no, if we're not all allowed to enjoy sexual acts, our lives will be the same as the people who sit on the computer all day to counteract their repressed feelings of sexuality.

Whereas child pornography and golden showers, especially at the same time, are frowned upon by the rest of society and I, small breast sizes and squirting are not nearly close enough to either of those. In fact, both are physical misinformations if they are subjected to those same laws.

If private child pornography is against the law, and the same goes for laws regarding urination, you could criminally charge people who use your restroom!

The problem with the censorship is while child porn is obviously harmful to the participants ( though the exact age of consent is hard to determine really) things like golden showers are not. If two consenting people want to do something together that will not harm others then I don't see why it needs to be banned. It seems that Australia is just heading towards this "if anyone finds it offensive then it must be banned" and that the people deciding whats offensive are all crotchety old women with a serious stick up their collective ass.

Sexual non-repression feels so good......it's a shame really...

What if eating certain foods felt really good, but was socially unacceptable?
(thats a horrible example.....other than plump helmets)

Obviously this stuff gets passed whenever I'm not listening to Parliment or something... (edit: so yeah, not parliment who do it anyway, shouldn't have been so stupid as to think it was :P) It can't be right. If it is however, the blogger from the article has it about right:

Quote
“Why ban small boobs? I can only assume it stems from paranoia that flat chests somehow stir up the pedophiles. And you only need to mention that “p” word to start a full-scale moral panic in Parliament.”
“Shall we put such hysteria aside and look at what this ruling is saying to Australian women? Basically, it’s classing a certain normal female body type as obscene. It’s declaring all flat chests to be automatically juvenile, something that should not be viewed by anyone because of a fear that it will stir up “base instincts” in certain people.”
“Can the Classification Board be any more insulting or sexist?”

All hail our (Australia's) constant march towards social regression! To hell with those modern ideals of sexual liberty, we have to enforce what must obviously be poorly made legislation to try and ward off an intangible and ultimatley minor threat!

Edit: wait, whoa, watersports are deemed offensive? Female Ejaculation?! This is worse than I thought, you can guarantee if mainstream Australian society was actually even marginally informed about this there'd be far more of a public outcry. Though in retrospect, I probably should have figured it when I found out that X rated movies aren't allowed to be sold in most of Australia... Well. I wanted to become a lawyer eventually, looks like I've found a purpose - trying to counteract the insane censorship we have here >.>

edit number 2: Didn't read the second blog, so it seems the small breast thing ain't really accurate. I'm still focused on the rest of the mater though... comparisons to Victorian era society seem reasonable.

Wow, you Australians should just abandon it to the aborigines. Seriously, get out before they close the border!

Also IIRC you don't even have the right to vote do you?
