  wow, didn’t expect that from france. I thought they, of all countries, would be less prudish than Texas about porn. 😬

    Texas isn’t the first. I think it was started by Germany? I know the UK banned women’s orgasms and Australia banned hentai. Heck, India apparently banned porn altogether, ineffectively.

      Germany didn’t do anything like that. Britain tried but realized it’s a terrible idea and stepped back from it.

        Ironically, it was PornHub’s parent company that was set to run the UK age verification scheme.

      Australia banned hentai

      Did we? My scientific search the other night proves that false, and I’m not on VPN.

        They banned the physical books, but they can’t really stop the internet

      Why? To prevent British women from having expectations?

        Because female cum is urine according to the powers that be, and that’s too much for them.
