Can you watch porn on an airplane?

[Brent]

Ok, you know how people watch movies and TV shows while flying now, well, can you watch porn?

I mean, if you legally purchase porn, and are old enough to watch it, and you sit there watching it on the plane on your laptop or phone, do they have any ground to stand on to stop you?

I guess the flight attendants could tell you to please turn that off, but is there any legality to that, or could you legally watch it and say to them that you aren't doing anything illegal?

Just wondering

 

[Lindley]

I suspect they would charge you with making it available to minors or something.

It's their plane, they can make you do whatever they want as long as it doesn't violate some other law.

And I know of no law that promises porn-access at all times without restriction.

But is there any law that would cause that to be illegal?

On an airplane, you have to do whatever the crew says. If they say stop watching porn, you stop watching the damn porn.

What happens if you don't?

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

^ They can have you arrested, I believe, when the plane lands.

Public indecency, probably. Unless you have a private room or something on the plane, you would be exposing other people (potentially minors) to something they probably don't want to be exposed to.

There is something about viewing such videoes in close proximity to minors and sensitive individuals in the airline magazine. I came across it when I wanted to review the exact wording for using electronics on the plane last weekend when I flew bac to DC. One needs to take care to make sure one doesn't hear the video. If you set the screen to where nobody can see it, You might be okay but still risky. What if there's a little kid peering over the chair...

Also, why on earth would one want to watch porn on a plane. Ew.

^Are you really asking that? There are couples who have had sex in the bathroom up there....

Yeah...in the bathroom...not in their seats!

I'd guess that happens too occasionally.

 

[Ethros]

er, what would be the point? Are you planning to whip it out and start beating off like a little monkey in full view of all the passengers as well?

I'm wondering this as well.

Which is also incredibly disgusting. I mean, if you want to do it, fine. I just don't get it at all.

 

[Robert Maxwell]

Someone who would watch porn on an airplane is probably a bit of a douchebag to begin with. And if the crew tells you to stop, you'd damn well better...

 

[Kemaiku]

For a moment I thought this was going to be a suggestion about porn being the inflight movie, I need more coffee...

Who the hell would want to have sex in an airplane bathroom? There's hardly enough room for ONE person to go in there (if I have to take a whiz, I seriously consider waiting till the plane lands). Two people crowding in there at once would be unbearable.

 

[Mr. B]

You become a member of the wrong club if you do it in the airPORT bathroom.

As for porn on a plane, it's the sort fo thing that should not require a law. Common decency should suffice.
