To answer the original questions: no on all three counts. I find the material distasteful.

However, that doesn't have anything to do with whether it should be legal and/or considered "obscene." I choose not to produce, sell, or watch that kind of content. I wouldn't even think of saying that other people shouldn't.

Think about it: the models know what they're getting into and presumably want to do it, the people producing it similarly know and want what they like, and the people buying it have made the same decision about what they want.

Who the fuck are we, or anyone else, to say "yeah, nobody got hurt, it was all consensual and play-acted, and nobody was forced into it, but *we* don't like it so you shouldn't do it"?

There is enough non-consensual violence in the world that I find it totally absurd that anyone would consider this kind of consensual play-acting to be worthy of rebuke, let alone government regulation and/or prosecution.

Cheers
