Queen on porn freedom
Carol Queen bemoans the limited range of kink on American porn shelves compared to Europe, and explains why videos with "fisting, piss, scat, animal porn, and SM that includes penetration" are so hard to make, distribute or buy in the US. Queen sees the settlement of the Seymour Butts obscenity case in Los Angeles as potentially a "first blow for freedom of kinky expression." In the second half of the article, Queen looks at another censorship case. Lesbian pornographers Shar Rednour and Jackie Strano sent their latest video, Sugar High Glitter City, to a queer film festival in New Zealand. That country's film review board insisted they "take out seven seconds of the offensive urine," which turned out to mean a female ejaculation scene.
