Kissing
Speaking of Indonesia…I’m hearing from friends that their Indonesian friends are disappearing from Facebook.
Two [Indonesian] men have been arrested after a photo of them kissing was posted on Facebook.
The 22-year-old student and 24-year-old office worker from Indonesia were arrested after uploading the picture which was captioned: “With my dear lover tonight. May our love last forever”.
Homosexuality is not illegal in Indonesia but the two men are expected to be charged for breaking anti-pornography laws.
…
The identities of the two men have not been disclosed and although they are currently not in police custody they could be jailed if they are found guilty.
That’s “liberal” majority-Muslim Indonesia. Not all that liberal…
A picture of two people kissing is… pornography?
I can’t define it, but I know it when I see it. And that ain’t it.
And India – public kissing very taboo. And the UK, where I’m told an upcoming episode of Big Bang Theory (FFS) will be cut because Penny wears a dominatrix outfit in a dream sequence. And it’s only a few short years since TV in the west showed the first lesbian kiss and even fewer years since the first gay male kiss. But hey, at least you can watch graphic violence (often with women as victims) pretty much everywhere with no problems. GRRRRRR.
Well, you know how it is, Rob. Kissing might lead to dancing. That would be bad.

Dancing! Dancing is the WORST EVER! Bring back good family values like graphic violence. What was that movie where the female victim got cooked alive by steam just to make us feel revulsion at the villain? For that matter the real life hacking to death of people with machetes for not being the right religion/sexual orientation/religious enough – much more wholesome.
Is my anger showing? I need some time out.
