Pig not degraded by televised sexual experience, British watchdog rules
Mon Nov 29,12:12 PM ET
LONDON (AFP) - In one of their more delicate rulings of recent years, British television watchdogs ruled that a pig sexually pleasured on television by a minor celebrity did not feel degraded by the experience.
Dozens of viewers complained about the episode in so-called reality television show "The Farm", in which a series of celebrities were sent to do tough work with agricultural crops and animals.
The audience were treated to the sight of Rebecca Loos, the self-proclaimed ex-lover of England football captain David Beckham, stimulating the boar for 10 minutes to produce a flask of semen.
Many viewers complained to the government's Office of Communications (Ofcom) that this was "akin to bestiality", while a leading animal charity condemned the scenes as "morbid and sordid".
But in a ruling released on Monday, Ofcom cleared broadcaster Channel Five of breaching decency standards, saying the procedure was perfectly normal.
"The task performed by Rebecca Loos is one that occurs regularly on UK farms. It was properly supervised by a qualified veterinary surgeon and was carried out for a genuine purpose -- to artificially inseminate the pigs on the 'celebrity farm'," the ruling said.
It added: "We don't believe that the scene was degrading or harmful to the boar."

Who cares if it was degrading to the boar?
It's not like a boar is likely going to feel modesty
That's too funny
What's next - animal rights groups suing dog owners for making them defecate outside in semi-public surroundings? -

I find the story...you know...the actual "Topic" of the thread to be the norm.
Being a country boy growing up and raising feeder pigs and working on a dairy farm my eyes were shown reality long ago. In later years, working in a inner city public school system has illustrated just how ignorant most are as to the actual workings of the world.
Exactly how did people think piglets get made? Some get made the old fashion way sure, but the majority of off spring around a farm is done by artificial insemination, especially in circumstances where a boar or bull is not readily available. Many farmers buy frozen semen for this purpose.
How in the hell do you suppose they get that semen out of the animal? Real doll? And if they were disturbed by how they got it out, they out to see how they get it in the female. -
