Back at the beginning of 2010, the Australian Classification Board decided it needed to put an end to some of the more unsavory aspects of adult films and publications. First on their hit list was the depiction of any sort of female ejaculation. The Board felt these scenes were most decidedly deserving of a Refused Classificationbecause it was one of two things:
Urine, and thus banned under the label of "golden showers," or;
an abhorrent depiction.

Also in the Classification Board's sights for banned content? Breasts. Or rather, the lack thereof. If you were going to have naked titties, they needed to be big titties. By order of the Australian government.

The reason is that an Australian group called Kids Free 2B Kids was leading a campaign to forbid women with an A-cup breast size from appearing in pornography, claiming it encouraged pedophilia, since apparently all flat-chested women are under the legal age of consent.

As a result, depictions of non-voluptuous women in their late 20s have been banned, including those in mainstream publications like Hustler.

OK -- we think we've discovered an ulterior motive here.
