EDITORIAL NOTE
STRICTLY SPEAKING
Perv culture, from the eighteenth-century Hellfire Club, the illustrative masterpieces
of John Willie, the prototypical latex-fetish aesthetics of AtomAge Publications,
the Clockwork Orange art direction of Allan Jones, the punk-era, upscale London
fetish emporium of Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood to such stalwart institutions
of contemporary kink as Torture Garden and Skin Two, is deeply rooted in England's
boggy soil.
And yet, few other nations have made more of a business of specifically suppressing
that culture's associated activities. A few years back, the infamous Spanner case,
in which some gay leather Brits were arrested at a party for engaging in assault,
even though the affair took place among consenting adults and bottoms were charged
with the same offense as tops, resulted in convictions upheld all the way to that
legendary bastion of moral rectitude, the House of Lords.
Now, in the wake of a particularly gruesome lustmorden of the type to which the
English also seem prone, the British government proposes to ban possession of
so-called "extreme pornography," specifically depictions of BDSM.
Not surprisingly, UK pro-kink and anticensorship orgs, including the Libertarian
Alliance, the Spanner Trust, the Sexual Freedom Coalition, Feminists Against Censorship,
Ofwatch and Unfettered, have formed a united front under the Backlash banner to
oppose this bit of nonsense. "It criminalizes material featuring consenting
adults engaging in staged or controlled fantasies," Backlash warns. "Hear,
hear!" we say to our British compatriots, but we're not altogether optimistic
regarding their prospects for successful resistance.
A measure of shame and prohibition seems to fire the randy imaginations of our
Anglo-Saxon cousins, and any official recognition of a right to consensual pervery
might endanger their beloved indulgence in forbidden pleasures. It would threaten
to strip away the black-lace veil of hypocrisy, rendering BDSM and the like normal
in law as they are in practical fact, and what fun would that be? Why, the whole
idea of uncloseted sexual liberationism is perfectly un-English, if not downright
American, and that simply wouldn't do, would it?
