UK government making it illegal to possess porn depicting pretend step-incest. With actual jail time possible. Potential 2 years in prison. Gotta save the kids I guess.

ok so this is specifically if the plot pretends at least one of the actors is under 18? Why step in particular though. Shouldn't they just blanket ban any plot where one of the participants are under 18 in both porn and regular movies and such. like romeo and juliet and such.
