STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - A Swedish drama student was fined 2,400 crowns on Wednesday for reading pornographic stories to a group of six-year-olds as part of a theater project on children's sexuality.

A Stockholm court ruled that the stories the man had read out were deeply pornographic and completely inappropriate for the age group, newspaper Dagens Nyheter said on its Web site.

It said the stories were about children having oral sex with each other.

The man's lawyer told Swedish radio that he would appeal against the verdict as he had not meant the stories to be seen as pornographic and had not acted with intent.

What a sad step backwards for the perfect progressive socialist utopia.
Guess I'll have to look for a new utopian models where the judges
are so judgemental.

Anyone associated with such a "project" needs a .45 ACP round in the back of his head.

In olden days, fairy tales started with the words "Once upon a time...."

Today, they start "Dear Penthouse Forum: I never thought it would happen to me...."

What the..???? I know I'm a bit old fashioned, (well I AM Mike!!) but the words "children" and "sexuality" reeaaallly do not belong together in the same sentence.
