Do you support Censorship in Adult films? I am aware the US has had censorship laws regarding Adult films, and there are many people in the US that are striving to have these laws returned. The US has been different compared to parts of Europe regarding censorship of Adult films. Adult films in much of western Europe was legal before the USA and Belgium never has never imposed censorship on adult films.

I don't agree with censorship at all. If someone doesn't want to hear curse words on the radio, or boobs on TV, make sure they know its coming on, and you can change the channel.

Define your interpretation of "censorship" please? If it's not animals, children etc then it's all over the "censored" US cites.

No, the government should really stay out of social issues such as these.

I'm not aware of any place where sex with children is legal inside of the United States. Animals, is should be up to the state/county/local government what they want to outlaw. I think that would be disgusting, and I wouldn't want to watch it, but I shouldn't have a say what my neighbor does.

I don't support censorship in adult fims,


However. The government regulates alot of things in society regarding safety, etc.

There should at least be some laws requiring more frequenty HIV testing and other STD testing, as well as preventing performers from staying in the career if they have anything that could be continually spread. Something like OSHA, but for porn productions.

You mean what? Child porn? Three ways? Showing the "junk"? Or showing oral?

I really don't see how we can have a conversation about this topic without defining WHAT the govt should try to stop and what they shouldn'g.
