I'll forward the next one I getI must be very unattractive and undesirable. I never get these types of calls/messages/texts
Oh god yes! I do not make the road trip back to the city of my birth often but so many times... when there is a passing lane built into the highway, that slow driver will suddenly manage to actually travel at the speed limit
I think they meant it wasn't for children to use. There was a different pregnancy disclaimer. I hate that they can even advertise them at all. "Ask your doctor...". Shouldn't my doctor tell me?They meant to say "Not for those with Type 2 Diabetes, or women who are pregnant"...but instead they said "Not for those with Type 2 Diabetes...or children?"

Don't doctors in the US get commission for selling you prescription meds too? That must make it really hard to trust whether you even need meds or just have a money-hungry doctor!
They do, it's in part why the opioid crises is what it is in the states. The latest scandal is doctors prescribing a diabetes med for general weight loss to anyone who asked for it. The whole system is a mess. People who need the meds can't get them and those that don't can.
Because back then I'd actually thought I could trust medical professionals to only recommend what's best for my child. NOPE.This is another thing about the USA that stuns much of the rest of the world. In Australia such advertising is illegal/banned. (has never been allowed)
Yeah but Australia did or tried to ban small titty women from being in porn...that said, you're not wrong.
This is a direct result of the lobbying efforts allowed by corporations to sitting members of Congress. In the last 60 days, Congress approved $35 a month insulin for those on medicare programs, but no one else. The medical field in this country is not pro-patient, it is pro-grift. A single tablet of Tylenol or paracetamol can be anywhere from $10 to $40 depending on which hospital system you end up in for whatever ailments haunt you. Hospitals now charge for laying the baby on dad's chest after delivery. It's ridiculous.Yeah but Australia did or tried to ban small titty women from being in porn...that said, you're not wrong.

Yep! That's the stuff. On top of that, other medications are in short supply, mostly ADHD meds and anti-psychotics. I would not be surprised if some of these teen school shooters are people who can't get their meds.
I am not an expert, but I do not think it ever happened. That article is 8 years old and seems to refer to an even older article (2010). I have no doubt that our idiotic conservative politicians did indeed try to do that. At one point (2015) our Prime Minister was a rabid Catholic who had actually studied for the priesthood (didn't go through with it) at a seminary. We referred to him as "the mad monk" .Australia's 'small breast' ban
Australia has vowed to fight child exploitation — but is stamping out images of "small-breasted" women really the right way to do it?
It appears it was eventually turned into the law like what we have here, "no one appearing to be under 18 may produce adult content". It did start out with flat chested women being a target of the law.
Chaturbate bans users who look under 18 until they look old enough (whatever the fuck that means) and I think that's where the original intent with this in Australia lied. I think the laws should be changed so that you have to be 19 years and 1 day old to become a sex worker/entertainer. I'm not sure if that's a popular or unpopular opinion but 1 day after your 18th birthday is no different than the day before it. Take that year to explore the world before diving into something that will impact the rest of your life. Thanks for coming to my Nobody Asked V's Opinion Ted Talk
It's a shortage of materials to make the drugs. The demand is much too high for the supply because as you just said the mental health system in this country is absolute garbage and they hand out scripts like Pez dispensers and hope it fixes the brain chemistry. I once quipped I thought I was ADHD and my doctor gave me Stratera. I found myself locked in my bathroom wanting to die. Literally. I couldn't stop it. I wasn't ADHD to that level, I was just bored out of my mind.
Interestingly (perhaps) you have to be 18 in Australia to do such work, even though the age of consent here is 16.Chaturbate bans users who look under 18 until they look old enough (whatever the fuck that means) and I think that's where the original intent with this in Australia lied.

My understanding is that the law that was being discussed in that *article* was taken out of context, and relates to illegal pornography depicting minors, or deliberately representing them as minors (even if they are not).
