Who’s making that determination though?
Comment on 'Abhorrent' step-incest porn to be banned with up to five years in prison

The Ministry of Justice said that possessing and publishing porn showing incest between family members and sex between step or foster relatives where one person pretends to be under-18 would be a crime.
I feel like everytime this is brought up, headlines ignore the whole “pretending to be under 18” part…
How that’s interpreted determines everything else.
It’s also super weird they don’t ban everything where the person pretends to be a child tho…

They’re just annoyed that every time they go on pornhub for some wank material that it is dominated by step-fantasy shit.

But this wouldn’t actually outlaw that…
They’d throw some kind of line/establishment that they’re over 18 in that takes 10 seconds and it’s legal again. Or even just a “all characters are based on someone 18+” screen.
That’s why it doesn’t make sense anyone is making it a big deal, it does absolutely nothing.
It’s a distraction from real shit.

Isn’t child porn already illegal though? Even pretending to be I am pretty sure counts by UK laws.
