Simpsons Porn Scandal

Hey, Bart! Don't let an Aussie judge catch you doing that or you'll be convicted of child pornography! You think I'm kidding? An appeal judge in Australia has ruled that an animation showing characters from The Simpsons TV series having sex is child pornography and has fined the felon Aus$3,000. (It could have been a heavy jail sentence.) The judge - Michael Adams - is male, but his ridiculous judgement strikes me as gender politics. If the obscene cartoon had been found on a woman's computer, instead of a man's, the police would probably have seen it as a joke and no arrest would have been made.
