      It’s been tried before. It never works the way it was intended. I don’t consume porn, but dammit, some of these men will never kiss a real girl. Long as it’s consenting adults, let them have their fantasy life.

        Seriously. My wife’s ex spent at least $10k on OF models. My wife has no problem with the women doing what they need to do to get by, but that $10k was hers. It was only part of that divorce.

    So calling a genocide a genocide and pictures of oral sex are illegal in the UK, but genocide and far-right nationalists are okie-dokie?

    Laws like this are always a slippery slope. Wishing folks in the UK the best of luck trying to turn this around.

    Purge the Saxon filth and string their so called nobility high. Brittania Delenda Est.

      As someone who grew up in auld Iceni territory, fuck the Romans man. We should’ve never given up the tribes. Give me a sickle and some mistletoe.

        Oh I definitely agree, I’d be doing my ancestors wrong if I didn’t loathe them a bit. But one must admit they had some solid fucken quotes, also I actually do like the Eastern Romans after all they employed some of my more northern ancestors without fucking them over. Note one of my ancestors was a Harmon and they were claiming to be descendants of Arminius as early as the 800s.

      You may want to reconsider using “whoresons” as an insult while trying to defend sex workers. Kind of sends a bit of a mixed message.

    So from the article it seems like the law penalizes possession of certain content so some sites flagged and removed bunch of videos to avoid legal issues. I guess they don’t have the resources to watch their entire library and decide to purge it just in case.

    Sounds like an issue between content creators and the sites they used for monetization. Not sure if it’s government’s job to make sure people can make money on sites like youtube or only fans.

    I don’t have a strong opinion on this, since I’m so detached from the whole thing. Isn’t that literally the point? If sex work is banned, then people who worked in that industry can’t keep making a living in that industry. So?

    Equivalent to “gun shop workers can’t make a living anymore after firearms ban”. No shit.
