The House of Lords just voted to ban "barely legal" pornography and content depicting sex between step-relatives. The step-incest ban passed by a single vote.

One. Vote.

Half of all child sexual abuse cases in the UK involve step-parents. And until now, porn companies have been profiting from content that recreates exactly those dynamics on screen. Actors in school uniforms. Filmed in children's bedrooms. Tagged with words like "tiny" and "forbidden."

I've worked in digital forensics. I've seen first-hand where this content leads. It doesn't stay on a screen. It normalises. It desensitises. It creates a pipeline.

The government tried to exclude step-incest from the ban entirely. Baroness Bertin had to force the issue. It still has to survive the Commons.

If you're a parent, a teacher, or anyone who works with children, this matters. The content young people can stumble across today is not what most adults think it is.

Talk to your children. Keep those conversations open, honest, and free of judgement.

⚡ Please don't forget to react and restack, more engagement means more people see it. ⚡
