My apologies if this has already been covered in another thread.

The new 2257 regulations make repeated reference to the term 'sexually explicit". This term is defined as:

?sexually explicit conduct? means actual or simulated?
(A) sexual intercourse, including genital-genital, oral-genital, anal-genital, or oral-anal, whether between persons of the same or opposite sex;
(B) bestiality;
(C) masturbation;
(D) sadistic or masochistic abuse; or
(E) lascivious exhibition of the genitals or pubic area of any person;

Many of the ads and "live member streams" appearing on adult dating sites, including iwantu, sexsearch, adultfriendfinder, and others would fall under the definition of (C) masturbation and (E) lascivious exhibition of the genitals or pubic area of any person.

And, under the new regulations, I would interpret the adult dating site to be a primary producer of this "sexually explicit" material. But, even if they are by definition a secondary producer, the 2257 regs will still apply.

So, I interpret this to infer that each adult dating site will now be responsible to require a copy of the id of each member who publishes "sexually explicit" images, and to keep such records in the manner provided in 2257.

Any adult dating site reps out there want to discuss how you are planning on dealing with the new regs?
