The News, Australian Style

Maybe the sexual connotation of certain words just isn't as strong in Australia as it is in America. Or maybe Australians are just perverts with an awesome sense of humor.

Click here to see what I'm talking about.

And after that, you can read this article about a lady who found a penis in a ketchup bottle, from the same website.

Godegaarden means 'penis farm' in Sweden. This is the epitome of bogus.

The article was in Oddly Enough by Reuters yesterday, and unfortunately they used rooster instead. How do you pronounce Itzehoe?

I wouldn't really say we are perverts, but we are generally subject to lesser censoring. The word has the same meaning here, but the media aren't quite as afraid of being seen as risque. For all the good the freedom of speech amendment has done, the U.S. has the tightest regulations in the Western world on what can be said in print/on tv.
