What's not what you said? And what distinction? I'm trying to make the
point that there is no obvious definition of lewdness and plenty of
people don't consider the Virgin Killer picture to be lewd (highly
distasteful for an album cover, sure, not not lewd), seemly including
the UK police (and the US police, although I don't know if that
version of the cover is still on sale in the US so it just be a matter
of times changing and were it released now the police would act).
