It is the wedding of the two -- "violence" and "sex" that fits in that definition.Both have to be present in the picture/film that is being viewed. While many see a spanking fetish as "sexual" in the vanilla world, if you are just performing the act of spanking in the pics, or in a film, with no overt sexualization, then it shouldn't fall under "violent pornography".

If you can get a copy of the law and read it, it should tell you exactly what it is.

I had a look at a few things about this new law and all was very faige. But what you're saying makes sense.

And I wouldn't post anything with a sex link on here anyway. I think this place is mainly about sm so thats what I would post here.

But thanks for letting me know anyway... saves me slipping up I think I understand the rules a little better now thankyou.
