I wonder if this will be a thread we can all agree on?

What's an anti-child, is it like the anti-christ?

Oh noooo....you'll know when he hits town

Actually, no you won't...

Back on topic....although I agree in principle with some of these laws, they'll be a nightmare to police.

Updating incest offences to cover not just blood relatives but also foster and adoptive parents and live-in partners.

Does this mean that someone dating a mother and her daughter will be classed breaking the law (incest)

Yay! Men can B**g** each other without fear of prosecution.

Under the act, men who have previously been convicted of b**g**y and indecency between men with a consensual partner aged over 16, will have their names removed from the sex offenders' register.

I didnt know you'd be convicted as a sex offender if you got caught before.

A new offence to protect the public from unacceptable sexual acts in public toilets.
Bestiality and necrophilia become specific offences for the first time.

Now they are just trying to spoil our fun.
No more gerbils for me, eh Russ?

As were all sexual acts, were they not?

And necrophillia is illegal? I always found that to be dead boring. And incest? Relatively boring

I think it was a case of 'out of sight, out of mind'.
But if caught (normally by someone telling the police) or the police decided to take offense (as it often depended on what mood the police were in) they would prosecute.

See the last few postings prove how confusing this whole area has been for a while now.

Sadly however it won't stop those who will continue to find a way to work around these updated laws.
