My boys died a little when I read this. :(

Porn is now illegal in the Ukraine, unless used for medicinal purposes.

 

Porn has a medicinal purpose?

 

 

 

 

Hospitals use it to help men extracting their sperm. ;)

In the middle of a recession?...

 

Jokes aside, I'm curious how much money is made from porn every year. It doesn't advocate it though...

We want every Ukrainian family not to have a porno mag in the bedroom dresser, but a Bible, said Viktor Shvets, chairman of the parliament committee that drafted the pornography law.

 

ATHEISTS ATTACK

but..but...playboy iisssssss my bible!! :cry: :cry:

 

 

 

:-$

 

Compromise: Hide the porn under the bible...

 

Though good luck enforcing this.

I wonder if people are going to be bootlegging in Porn from other countries.

What if someone got a piece of paper and scribbled a naked woman on it? Would they be sent to prison, even if they drew a stick-figure woman with circles for boobs?

to be fair - no more crazier than russia banning gambling.

 

WHAT! :shock:

 

 

 

I'm just waiting for Lenin to show up and make some Russian reversal "joke" he does so well.

 

 

 

And also, why ban porn !? No moral qualms here, but how the heck are they going to enforce it ?

 

I have never once made a joke like that.

 

 

 

I suspect they would enforce it based mostly on monitoring downloads, or blocking sites based on the Australian firewall (did that ever succeed?). Banning the sale of magazines wouldn't be too difficult.

didn't realize ukraine is more of a bible-thumping country than america

Sucks to be them, but I rather see more focus on stopping child sex slavery though.

 

I have never once made a joke like that.

 

 

In Soviet Russia, Joke lies about never telling a Lenin.

Great, more laws that cause more problems than they fix. Wait, was there even a problem in the first place? If consenting adults want to make a porno, who is getting harmed? It's a million times more immoral to throw those people in jail.

I would prefer to see any amount of effort put into banning Legit Pornography to be put into enforcing and cracking down on Child Porn.

 

 

 

This completely. This will just take valuable resources away from dealing with many serious "internet" crimes such as producing or holding Child pornography, dealing with pedophile rings (Most operate throughout the internet), child grooming etc.

 

 

 

I really don't see a problem with the production of pornography as long as it's two (or more) consenting adults par taking for a fair wage. I'm not entirely sure about this and could be incredibly wrong, but I remember reading an article before stating that apparently when pornography became well spread and easy to obtain rape figures fell noticeably. I could be very wrong on this as I said though.

How long did they think about banning this? I guess the black market is now happy. More money for them.

But what if they want Ukrainian Porn?

Looks like a lot of people with overworked right hands and wrists are angry with this. It probably won't change a thing. Thay cannot hope to enforce it.

:thumbup:

 

 

 

There are some things with my motherland I cannot agree with (yeah I was born thar, but I live in the U.S. now.), but I feel that they had some reason behind the decision. Maybe theyre trying to crack down on Child Porn by eliminating all other porn?

This won't last. Otherwise that's 1 more country I'm not visiting

Perhaps. But the money would be more well spent if they targeted only that instead of the whole business. And then still, they will have problems as they aren't going after the sources.

Are they doing this for religious reasons to get people to see less porn? I am going to view extra just to piss them off.

 

 

 

EDIT: I should say just to spite them, since it won't piss them off because they will never know. Unless the Ukrainian government has a Tip.it'er on their staff.

you forgot about the lefties! how could you!

 

Porn has a medicinal purpose?

 

Only thing I can think of are cryobanks.

 

 

 

every hospital has a little cubby in a back room for porn because of blue balls. not sure of its mdical name. its basically where to much sperm gets produced and things start to swell and it can be quite painfull.

 

 

 

And ya how on earth are they going to enforce this without causing a riot?

Isn't it blood? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_balls says it's when you're stimulated but you don't ejaculate, which causes the blood to pool.

noooo it provides so much pleasure to so many people!

 

Porn has a medicinal purpose?

 

 

 

Actually, yes. :D When someone jacks off or has sex, that contricts the blood vessels. Consequently, this takes away the symptoms of seasonal allergic reactions.

Wow, are you serious?

 

"How's your hay fever?"

 

"Fine. I just jacked off."
