Australia adult videos
Although the Australian porn industry is small, we are some of the most frequent p*rn watchers in the entire world! But considering strict censorship laws, is p*rn even legal in Australia?
The short answer is yes; you can freely view most types of pornography depicting consensual sex between adults, no matter where you are in the country. But that doesn’t mean you are 100% off the hook in every case – so read this before you open a that new incognito window!
Is It Illegal To Watch Porn In Australia?
Is p*rn banned in Australia? While you most likely won’t get arrested for watching porn on your iPhone or computer, there are laws that prohibit the distribution and production of adult videos in Australia.
How Do Australia’s Laws Differ From Other Countries?
Australia is surprisingly not very progressive when it comes to adult videos, especially when you compare it to similar democratic nations. In a lot of places around the world, it is perfectly legal for people to produce adult films as long as all the participants are of legal age, although there may be some exceptions to that.
The United States has one of the biggest p*rn industries in the world, so it’s no surprise that it’s legal as long as it doesn’t cross the line into federally defined “obscenity”. In the United Kingdom, they’re a bit more strict, requiring an R18 certificate for all distributed pornographic films. It is illegal to possess “extreme pornographic images” in England and Wales, which targets mainly snuff or violent videos, but might extend to consensual BDSM or bondage p*rn*graphy as well.
Are Some Types Of Porn Illegal?
Most of the time, if you watch porn in the privacy of your own home, you’ll be fine. However, there are certain cases in which you could potentially be prosecuted for viewing or possessing pornographic material. So what is illegal p*rn?
There are a few different kinds of illegal p*rn. The law mostly prosecutes possession of child p*rn*graphy (i.e. anything that depicts kids under the age of consent n*ked or participating in sexual acts). It is also illegal for anyone to make or send any form of child p*rn, even if the minor depicted in the photo/video is the one who made it. So if you’re still in high school, it’s best to refrain from taking and sharing nude photos of yourself until after you turn 18.
Affect of p*rn*graphy in child and young people.
1. Nearly half of children between the ages of 9-16 experience regular exposure to sexual images.
2. Young males are more likely than females to deliberately seek out p*rn*graphy and to do so frequently.
3. P*rn*graphy use can shape sexual practices and is associated with unsafe sexual health practices such as not using condoms and unsafe anal and vaginal sex.
4. P*rn*graphy may strengthen attitudes supportive of sexual violence and violence against women.
5. P*rn*graphy and its impacts need to be situated within a broader framework of primary prevention and supporting the sexual safety and wellbeing of children and young people.
