Porn Legal Issues

[Dingo Fries]

I was at my friends house last weekend and he went away to help his mum do some work around the house. He let me stay on the computer while he was helping.
I was looking through youtube videos, but shortly after looked at his history and I saw that he watched beastiality porn and, although I don't like it, I don't think of him any differently if he watches it. Each to his own kinda' thing.
However, I'm worried if he'll get in trouble, so my question is:

Is it illegal for someone to watch beastiality porn in britain on the internet?
I'd hate for him to get into trouble if it was something that I could help him avoid.

I appreciate your answers to this somewhat sensitive issue. And please don't flame...

I'm not sure as I didn't visit the sites. They were most likely free, youtube styled video sites though.

[tomcut2000]

[Silentkink]

Yeah he should be fine as it is not child porn.

What is bestiality porn?

What is bestiality porn?

Beastiality is the sexual relations between a human and a animal. this includes intercorse masterbation, anal penitration, or oral sex. it is illegal in most places. i dont think it is illegal to watch, but i am very sure it is illegal to do such acts. its pretty much taking advantage of a innocent animal.

Just like everyone else has said.

Thank you all for your answers, I'd have hated to see him get arrested or put on the sex offenders list if it could've been avoided, thanks again :D

Surely it depends on how old he is? Don't you have to be 18 to watch porn?

You do, but no one listens to that since it's so easy to access it. So i don't think it matters how old he is just yet, rather what will happen if he gets caught say by his parents. Porn is illegal to minors.

to each his own i guess...but dang....i wouldn't want to find out my friends watched that lol

[The Dark Lord]

no its not illegal, just weird

[hung drummer guy]

it is technically illegal for anyone under 18 to watch porn, but ppl really dont care bcuz of accesiblity, but it is kinda weird

[Judas]

Not illegal to watch, as long as there aren't any minors.

[zander]

yeah well as everyone said its not legal for anyone under 18 to watch porn so tecnicaly any time anyone of us watch it it is illegal. and i dont mean to judge anyone, but sorry the idea of sex with an animal kinda makes me barf

[Spoookster]

As long the website is legal. You don't have to worry about it. BUT it's not appropriate/legal for an underage person to watch it.
