I feel ashamed to be British. Fisting may not be to some peoples tastes, but there is plenty of porn I don't like but if it's consensual then it's a matter of free choice. I smell serious corruption. Did someone have it in for this guy? Was it a religious nut doing "god's work" by using a corrupt law to make the gays suffer?

For people in the fetish/BDSM scene, it is more likely to evoke memories of the rather more recent Spanner case which began in Manchester in 1987. In this case, a group of gay men were prosecuted for indulging in a variety of consensual BDSM acts which they had freely admitted to on the basis of a wrong belief that consent was a defence. <br /><br />The use by the CPS of this newer law criminalising the viewing of extreme imagery shows that contrary to the belief of many modern “pervs”, the willingness of the British establishment to intrude on and punish people’s consensual behaviour in the bedroom (or dungeon) has not in any sense been diminished by the passing of time.<br /><br />Tony Mitchell/www.thefetishistas.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05122175048920629714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5066060298313974061.post-41395978146657692472012-08-01T07:11:40.889+01:002012-08-01T07:11:40.889+01:00So, it's pure coincidence this is taking place...So, it's pure coincidence this is taking place during weeks when everyone with half a brain new the media would be swamped with Olympic stuff? And if it drags on a bit, hey, US presidential election? Yeah, probably is just coincidence... But you're doing good by drawing attention, H - the fact that the guy has prosecuted coppers has a distinct odour about it. <br /><br />As for the kinky stuff - I led a very sheltered life and was middle-aged when the internet arrived. Nothing surprises me know about other people's predilections, but the sheer quantity of stuff out there is proof enough that 'extreme' porn simply does not act the way the censorship brigade want it to.
