These comparisons with electrostimulation are dumb. Men have (on average) much more muscle mass, including abdominal muscles. To calibrate this pain on women and then send the same intensity to men whose muscles then contract much harder and thus cause more pain is misleading and doesn't serve a purpose anymore.

When you are a well-known or household name, your presence alone can convince a lot of people to watch whatever product you're in. Not just that, entertainment is inherently a risky business. Replacing unknowns with celebrities means reducing that risk, replacing it with known factors.

"Have you tried... Exercising?" is quite a tone-deaf response to these matters at this point.

Of course it's correlated with healthy living. Of course it helps maintain a healthy lifestyle with wonderful benefits for your mental health and anxiety. Sure!

However, when you're not there (yet), and you have no idea how to get "there", having someone go "Well actually, it's not that hard, lol, just start exercising" isn't helpful. To build such a healthy pattern requires more care and nuance than just the knowledge that exercising helps, or the willpower to drag yourself through the first few days of whatever initial exercise routine, hoping it magically kickstarts this wonderful, new life.

Well, no. 71.3% of people voted not to want this party in power. That's the power of coalitions.

Baroness Bertin made it clear she would not be approaching the topic from a prudish or disapproving position.

...

The review, due to be published later, is expected to argue that porn videos considered too harmful for any certificate in the offline world should be banned online.

Non-fatal strangulation is already an offence if someone does not consent but its depiction online is not illegal.

Is it going to be illegal in all online depictions? Like movies, YouTube videos, TikToks? Or just porn?

There have been a number of (I'll admit, not high-risk) security updates since then.

First they came for the wankers... And I didn't speak up.

It's such a transparent non-answer, one that religious people have been conditioned to accept and not question.
