CNN: 'Face-sitting' protest held over UK porn censorship law - Democratic Underground

But to spare onlookers' blushes (and a potential brush with the law), those taking part in what was dubbed the #PornProtest on Twitter remained fully clothed.

One of the protest organizers is Charlotte Rose, winner of the UK sex worker of the year title in 2013 and a free-speech advocate. 

She told CNN that the bill could be perceived as being sexist because the banning of certain acts appears to target women's sexual enjoyment. 

"This is about censorship, and what the government is doing is they're censoring our consent -- so yes, it does affect women, but it also affects every man and every woman," she said. "It affects anybody who enjoys these particular activities."
