41.5 So what is actually illegal to watch/own/produce/sell?
Anything could be. Any expression whatever could be prosecuted
under the obscenity standard. Here's a quick list in order of
likelihood to be prosecuted, sticking only to items which can me in
movie form:
* Sexual activity involving minors (under 18) (this is the only
item on this list specifically prohibited by federal statute,
and merits further discussion elsewhere)
* Sexual activity with animals
* Sexual activity involving coercion and violence (more than
simple restraint)
* Sexual activity involving humiliation (another loose term)
* Other nonstandard sexual activity (fisting and watersports
could go here or under humiliation)
* Explicit sex with multiple partners, depicted without moral
stricture
* Explicit sex with single partners, depicted with moral
stricture
* Non-explicit sex (softcore)
* Simple nudity
* references to sexual activity.
This list is not meant to be complete, just give you an idea of how
much risk you may be running. Also in general, production is less
legal than sale which is less legal than possession which is less
legal than viewing.
