Unless you mean fetish bondage films that do depict consenting adults getting off on being dominated? It is MY basic right to watch and enjoy porn as much as it is the performer's right to fuck on film. Deb, if YOU have a problem with this, it is well within your right not to watch porn, but leave the rest of us the fuck alone! Porn does not depict subordination, but sexual freedom.

I wonder how they plan on actually enforcing this law – its already the case that its technically illegal to operate a porn site from within Australia, but that hasn't stopped Abby Winters and a few related operations from setting up very successful sites there.

I was just wondering if any one out there in Lesbo-land knows anything about Queer Aussie Actress Leah Pellinkhof. I saw her in a short film called Philter.n and in a show at the mid summer festival in Melbourne years ago. apparently now she is a writer and Director in film and theatre. I Heard thru the gay vine she was interviewed on Brisbanes Dykes on Mic’s reciently any info on her next performance would be appreciated. Would die to see some pic’s of this hottie. Only photo I can find is face book. Not Stalking Just a fan. Totally off the subject.
