Manchester Porn Protest

protest55After the success of The Mass Face Sitting Protest back in December the sexual freedom fighters are taking to the streets again, this time in the form of the largest group of SPANKERS.

Organiser Charlotte Rose is at it again with her second protest against ATVOD’s new regulations to ban porn activities. This time she has organised the largest spanking attempt to Madonna’s Hanky Panky song.

“Spanking is one of the banned activities on the list of the new porn laws, which is ironic as we all know what the MP’s get up too these days”

Charlotte received global support from the last protest even striking up meetings with the Lib Dem’s to see what could be done about it.

“Julian Huppert has been fantastic with support, he put forward an early day motion to bring this to the floor for discussion – we have a fight on our hands to get this revoked and this is why I will continue to raise awareness to what the government is doing to the public, this is censorship without consent, it is an attack on personal liberties and sexual freedom, and we will not keep quiet until something is done about it”

The Manchester Porn Protest will be held this coming Sunday 1st March at Sackville Gardens, Manchester at 12 noon and will include speeches from sexual freedom protest33fighter/sex worker Charlotte Rose among others.

There will be 3 more protests happening this year – On the 15th in Berlin, 5th April in Birmingham (Mass Caneing) and the 3rd of May in Brighton (Mass whipping attempt) this will coincide with Charlottes political campaign as she is standing in the general election.

protest11The protest is in response to Pornography produced in the UK being quietly censored through an amendment to the 2003 Communications Act, and the measures appear to take aim at female pleasure.

The Audiovisual Media Services Regulations 2014 requires that video-on-demand (VoD) online porn now adhere to the same guidelines laid out for DVD sex shop-type porn by the British Board of Film Censors (BBFC).

Seemingly arbitrarily deciding what is nice sex and what is not nice sex, the board’s ruling on ‘content that is not acceptable’ effectively bans the following acts from being depicted by British pornography producers:

Spanking

Caning

Aggressive whipping

Penetration by any object “associated with violence”

Physical or verbal abuse (regardless of if consensual)

Urolagnia (known as “water sports”)

Role-playing as non-adults

Physical restraint

Humiliation

Squirting

Strangulation

Facesitting

Fisting

The final three listed fall under acts the BBFC views as potentially “life-endangering”.

While the measures won’t stop people from watching whatever genre of porn they desire, as video shot abroad can still be viewed, they do impose severe restrictions on content created in the UK, and appear to make no distinction between consensual and non-consensual practices between adults.
