Apparently if people are traveling to Australia and they plan to take along a little bit of their home adult entertainment collection, they may want to rethink their trip. This is because passengers are now being asked to declare pornography in their luggage.

Some passengers’ cards asked the question if pornography is being carried. If passengers say it is, then they are going to be suggested to the humiliation of having their material examined by customs officers. If people say no, and pornographic material is found, then they are now breaking Australian laws.

A passenger card is now a requirement for all travelers who are coming into and going out of Australia. They were introduce by the Australian Migration Act of 1958 and the Migration Regulations of 1994 as a way of keeping track of who is entering and leaving the country.

Some of the usual questions on the cards include name, address, flight number, intended address in Australia, and if they intend to live in Australia for the next 12 months and so on. Some non-Australian citizens, such as tourists and emigrants, also have to answer questions about their health and any criminal convictions.

However, in November of last year, the Australian Emigration Department added a question to the incoming Passenger Card to ask travelers if they are carrying pornographic material. Of course, this is a question that is not asked to all travelers, as many travel agents and airline companies still use the old Passenger Cards.

The Australian Sex Party branded this question as an invasion of privacy. Fiona Patten, the leader of the Australian Sex Party, asked if it’s fair that customs officers rummage through someone’s luggage and pull out a legal men’s magazine or a lesbian journal in front of their children or their mother-in-law. She also warned that photographs of couples taking a bath could be deemed as pornographic and would be need to be declared.
