The Over 18 Thing

[oggbashan]

Apologies Ogg.
I was just wondering how it worked, not being serious.
Different countries, different cultures and how Lit views them.
Do stories have to conform to US rules?

The US rules are stricter than most Western countries so they set the norm. In some Middle Eastern countries all of us would be stoned for offences against public decency. Only the US has such a high proportion of church-goers with a very low tolerance threshold. Some European countries have as high a proportion of church membership but combined with a very relaxed attitude to sex. Those AH members resident in the US should see some of our satellite TV channels.

Partial or full nudity in print is very common here, even on roadside advertisements. What we can buy in most newsagents would be hard-core porn in parts of the US. As for what we can import from other European countries? The US customs would have a fit!

We have to comply with the US rules because Literotica is US based and is a target for people who don't want any sex outside marriage or in any other than 'normal' methods. The antis will use almost any means to stop what they consider is pornographic i.e. all of us.

I love this joke, from saucyminx - thks.

A cop was patrolling at night in a well-known spot. He sees a couple in a car, with the interior light brightly glowing. The cop carefully approaches the car to get a closer look. Then he sees a young man behind the wheel, reading a computer magazine. He immediately notices a young woman in the rear seat, knitting. Puzzled by this surprising situation, the cop walks to the car and gently raps on the driver’s window.
The young man lowers his window “Uh, yes, officer?”
“What are you doing?”
“Well, isn’t it obvious? I’m reading a magazine, sir “
Pointing towards the young woman in the back seat the cop says: “And her, what is she doing?”
The young man shrugs: “Sir, I believe she’s knitting a pullover sweater.”
Now, the cop is totally confused. A young couple. Alone, in a car, at night in a lovers’ lane. And nothing obscene is happening! “What’s your age, young man?”
“I’m 25, sir.”
“And her ... what’s her age?”
The young man looks at his watch and replies:
“She’ll be 18 in 11 minutes.”
