Elizabeth N. Brown discusses the scheduled face-sitting protest over at Reason —
Here’s a delightful little update in the saga of government censors versus the U.K. porn industry: This Friday, activists are planning to gather outside Parliament and stage mass simulated sex acts—specifically face-sitting. The demonstration is in response to last week’s annoucement that a host of sex acts, from face-sitting to bondage to faux non-consent, will be banned from U.K. porn websites that charge for content.
This prohibition on portraying many BDSM and fetish acts hits especially hard for the kinds of niche sites more likely to rely on pay-per-video fees and subscriptions than advertising revenue, as the free, high-traffic tube porn sites do.
