Government and Sex don't really go together at the best of times. At the heart of
that especial relationship which has shaped global discourse for eight years
is a puritanism which has an over-weening interest in both artistic discourse
and grown-up sex.
At bottom this seems to be combined with a fear and distrust of anything
that is 'other' to what seems , frankly, a limited experience of human sexuality.

I am referring to the two reports regarding Ben Westwood and The Criminal Justice
and Immigration Bill 2008, which comes into force in the New Year.
Jack Straw's attempts to cleanse artistic and grown-up discourse on sex, or shall
I call it porn - is getting on nerves, but he is one of the staunch survivors of the
Blairite New Christianity and utterly humourous about privacy issues.

(His Polaroid series is very good)
Of course with hegemonic xtianity and the view that women are incapable of either
producing, consuming or making porn- it becomes quite easy-peasy for
puritanical sorts who dominate both press and parliament to suggest to us
-What Women Like to Do- and the whole pornography argument is hived off into
the consumerist crap that hides a multitude in diversity.
or we could all just go and read Thorwald Dethlefsen on 'Gute and Bose'
and realise that utopias based in the limited experience of some political
classes are by their very virtue quite simply grounded in business, control,
propaganda and the usual toxicity of control- and oppose the continuance
of Government inroads into creativity and individuation. In Ireland our government
controls Arts Funding and Discourse and has been doing so since it instituted
the Arts Act 2003- any repeal is doubtful given the complacency at the
heart of it's deeply anti-cultural stance.
