Are Adult movies illegal here?

Post by Jade2 » Sun, 19 Dec 2004 8:38 pm

Hello everyone,

I`m new to this forum have a question.

I run an adult entertainment business back in the UK and was wondering if exporting adult DVD`s to Singapore is illegal. Also is viewing adult websites illegal for you guys..I heard that for those in China caught surfing adult material there are reprisals.

I`m not going to spam my biz here, but I do have a survey regarding my website running in a well known chatroom if anyone is interested.

Lastly, do any guys here miss English girls?

Love and kitten licks,
Jade xxx

Singaporean law is very strict when it comes to pornography. Slip a nipple in the wrong place and you're looking at serious fines at the very least.

This is, IMHO, one of the most hypocritical and senseless things in Sing when you consider that prostitution is legal :roll:

Thanks for that info babe,

Totally the opposite here in the UK. Prostitution illiegal, but porn movies (only just legal). This is despite my home town of Manchester having more brothels per sq mile than in Singapore. In fact, one of our most respected and longest running nightly newspapers has carried adverts for each one of them for..well, since I was a little girl. Everyone knows what`s going on, the police..the politicians.. and they turn a blind eye..probably cos they are the most prolific users of such establishments!

It is not illegal to surf the net for porn in Singapore.

From the MDA FAQ (top 5 most popular :)

1. Is accessing pornography on the Internet illegal?
The MDA does not monitor or track users' access to any sites on the Internet and does not interfere with what individuals access in the privacy of their homes. We are primarily concerned with the purveyors and distributors of pornography. Unless you engage in such activities, the mere act of visiting such sites is not an offence.

Er, so uploading your porno collection to the web... moving to SG and downloading and burning them to discs is ok. But simply bringing the discs with you when you move isn't?

Darn.

:wink: :)
