This has got to be a joke, right?

The proposed Australian Government clampdown on smut just got a whole lot broader, as news emerged of a ban on small breasts and female ejaculation in adult material.

.....Other than that sounding completely insane....The Australian Sex Party????

"It may be an unintended consequence of the Senator’s actions but they are largely responsible for the sharp increase in breast size in Australian adult magazines of late."

But even better:

The new ruling follows a boom in the numbers of adult films featuring female ejaculation since the pioneering research of Professor Emeritus Beverly Whipple was published in her book The G Spot.

The films are being banned on one of two grounds:

1) That the depictions are a form of urination which is banned under the label of ‘golden showers’ in the Classification Guidelines or

2) Female ejaculation is an ‘abhorrent’ depiction

However, as Ms Patten points out, one of the objections raised the Board is that film performers have been faking the production of ejaculate: this suggests that they are trying to both have their cake and eat it on this issue, since if the liquid in question is fake, there is no policy requiring the censorship of douching or enemas.

...

Meanwhile, the question of female ejaculation continues to be hotly debated in the UK, as film director Anna Span claims that the BBFC have now acknowledged its existence, whilst the BBFC continues to deny they have done any such thing.

"Have too!!!" "Have not!!!"

This is what the Aussies are paying politicians to focus on? The economy, healthcare, and education are not all that important, I suppose.

So does it exist or not?

I heard that female ejaculate was actually a blast of urine due to temporary lack of muscle control in the bladder due to orgasm...

So, it would be a 'golden shower' issue... but then why should golden showers be censored? The only things that should be censored are extreme violence and extreme degradation IMO.

The whole thing sounds batty. I mean how can you 'censor' small breasts, whilst leaving medium or large sized ones

What does that say to women who just happen to have a small cup size? That there's something 'wrong' with them, while women with bigger cup sizes are apparently ok???

The 'golden shower' part just makes me laugh. As pointed out- it's probably faked most of the time for photography/filming, so how can you 'ban' it? But it also just cracks me up to hear politicians actually using the term 'golden showers' in regard to policy making. That's the kind of thing you normally hear in spoofs. I also like the name 'Professor Emeritus Beverly Whipple'- who wrote the 'G-Spot'. It reminds me of a comedy sketch way too much.

If the story's accurate (?) I guess the phrase 'life is sometimes stranger than fiction' has a lotta of weight....

Well, under their theory that pictures of women with small breasts is somehow related to pedophilia, does that mean that men having sex with adult women with small breasts should be arrested for pedophilia?

[mr dragon]

Exactly.

...I guess they didn't think of that fairly obvious point at the same time eh.

As far as I'm concerned, more than a mouthful is a waste
