A gay porn studio is facing fury from Australians after releasing a film featuring men having sex with a didgeridoo.

US-based studio Men.com released the clip online this month, featuring adult film stars Aspen and Jack.

In the video, a sleeping guy is woken up by his friend loudly playing the instrument. After being woken, the man gets his revenge – by trying to penetrate his friend with a 5-foot didgeridoo.

Didgeridoos are large wind instruments developed by Indigenous Australians in northern Australia, and holds a special status at ceremonial gatherings for some native groups.

The scene has attracted fury online, after clips spread on Tumblr and Twitter.

The studio’s description for the film explains: “Didgeridoos create a one-of-a-kind sound, and can reach deep into one’s ass.”

But Australia’s Star Observer reports that the clip was branded “incredibly disrespectful to the Australian Aboriginal communities”.

One commenter added: “This is incredibly racist and culturally offensive… don’t laugh, get angry.”

An Australian-themed bar in the US also came under fire this week for selling alcohol shots out of a didgeridoo.

Indigenous Australian campaigner Nathan Appo tweeted: “The didgeridoo is a spiritual instrument our people have been using for thousands of years to tell stories about the dreamtime.

“Let’s hope they apologise publicly and give the didgeridoo the respect it deserves.”

Earlier this year data revealed that Australians disproportionately love watching lesbian porn… while banning lesbians from getting married.

Data released by Pornhub showed that ‘Lesbian’ was the most popular search term on the adult entertainment site in Australia, while the lesbian category was by far the most popular down under.

The site’s analysts noted that “Lesbian is by far more popular in North America and Australia than anywhere else” – though it also made it onto the top rankings in India, where gay sex between men was made illegal in 2013.
