Porn star campaigns against animal abuse

Friday 28 September 2007

The Volkskrant today focuses on porn star Charisma Gold and her campaign against bestiality and animal porn, which she says has led to her receiving death threats.

Gold, photographed in her S&M cellar with a wall full of whips, says the Netherlands is one of the leading producers of animal porn for the simple reason that it is not illegal.

'It is completely sick what Dutch porn makers are producing,' she tells the paper, before going into the gory details.

Gold's lobbying has resulted in the Labour party submitting a bill banning sex with animals to parliament. MPs will vote on the issue at the end of this year.

The owner of porn company Book and Film international, which claims to be the world's number one in beastiality (their spelling) tells the paper that animals are never forced to perform for the cameras. His company produces 20 or so films a month. 'If the ban comes into force, I will have to close down,' he tells the paper.

Anyone who profits off of sex with animals SHOULD be closed down.

As I know it will still be legal in Sweden, and in the state of Washington in the US. In Denmark and Norway sex with animals is also legal, but I am not so sure if it is legal to produce porn movies of that kind there.

So don't wear make up, don't wear leather shoes.
Don't eat eels, mussels, lobsters or crab. They all get boiled while they are still living. Oysters are consumed while they are still alive. These things all let people profit from killing animals in a terrible way.

The animals who are used for this movies stay alive. And what are Charisma Gold's whips made from? Leather from dead animals.

Blkende, all of those animals are invertebrates and thus have very simple nervous systems and lack the evolutionary development needed to feel physical pain. Your point is therefore meaningless.

I am all for banning such stuff but with that said as in child porn once its physical place is shut down it moves to the internet. How do you stop the internet.

Ohh and for life forms that do not have advanced biosystems---it's still LIFE. It's a living being with life force.
We dont have enough compassion nor Wisdom to judge whether one form of life is more significant than another. Control your ego.
