I’ve accumulated a number of interesting links regarding Australian censorship, statistics and hot websites so I thought I’d cheat and just whack them all in one post.<\/p>\nI’ve accumulated a number of interesting links regarding Australian censorship, statistics and hot websites so I thought I’d cheat and just whack them all in one post.<\/p>\n
Firstly, Catharine Lumby, one of the authors of The Porn Report<\/em>, has given a fascinating talk about the history of censorship and porn to the Sydney Institute. You can find a video of the event here<\/a>.<\/p>\n While despairingly contemplating the state of Australia when it comes to censorship and moral panic, I found Somebody Think Of The Children<\/a>, an excellent pro-free speech blog. Writer Mike Meloni casts a wide net. At the moment he’s discussing the crazy censorship of computer games and the looming threat of government ISP filtering. Worth checking out.<\/p>\n While the politicians and conservatives outdo each other to protect us from ourselves, a poll<\/a> reveals – once again – that Aussies love their porn. A Newspoll survey found that 70% of Australians want bans on X rated films overturned. This figure rises to 82% of 18-24 year olds. Interestingly, 80% of people with children are in favour of legalisation compared to 69% of those without. I’m wondering if priests were included in the latter group.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Sexpo has just finished in Sydney, attracting 50,000 or so visitors. The organisers say nobody is shocked by it anymore<\/a>, Australians are really relaxed about sex.<\/p>\n Given this information, I’m now speculating on the previously mentioned plan to place mandatory filters on ISPs to block porn. I’ve seen a suggestion that this scheme will be even worse than first thought. The plan is that if you want to look at porn, you give your name to the government to “opt out.” That’s unappealing enough, but what if the “unfiltered” feed only allows access to very small number Australian R-rated sex sites pre-approved by the OFLC?<\/p>\n Cue the revolution, perhaps? Because I think if you do try and take away unfettered internet porn from Australians, they’re not going to be as apathetic as they have been in the past. Either that or I’m moving to Amsterdam. Perhaps both.<\/p>\n So, here’s a couple of examples of sites that don’t have the government’s tick of approval and may be filtered out.<\/p>\n Fancies and Fuckeries<\/a> blog offers the personal musings of a rather sexy Melbourne guy plus plenty of cock pics. The author starred in Anna Brownfield’s upcoming erotica film The Band<\/em> and he also does a bit of nude modelling on the side. Nice.<\/p>\n He led me to Aaryon<\/a>, a truly delightful nude art photography site. There’s not a lot of info about who’s behind it, but the pics are glorious.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’ve accumulated a number of interesting links regarding Australian censorship, statistics and hot websites so I thought I’d cheat and just whack them all in one post.
