is that fake non-consensual sex/violence or real non-consensual sex/violence ?
So a riot on a football pitch - is that consensual or not?

What point are you trying to make Joe?
I can't make out if you are saying that all forms of sex and violence are ok or that all forms of sex are ok but mainstream violence isn't.
The origonal point of this thread IMO was that the material that was censored was deemed to be sick which I tend to agree with. I don't however agree with censorship.

I think we have missed the origonal point. But to answer your question IMO if it's real i.e non-consensual then it's "sick".
What is your opinion?

Bearing your point in mind, you'll find the BBFC had refused certification in the past for compilations devoted to showing football violence. It's not just smut that they find offensive.

that was because the 'documentary' was less than condemnatory of the football hooligans and not because of the 'holiganism'.
