Although that scene to be honest isn't "horribly explicit", its actually somewhat restrained and rather implied and from what I know, it never had to be censored in the movie by the BBFC either.
It is interesting to note that just a couple of years after this Michael Haneke's 2002 film The Piano Teacher showed similar clips from pornographic films for its similarly repressed heroine to muse philosophically upon and got passed unedited by the BBFC.
It's probably because the porn videos in The Piano Teacher last less than 10 seconds, whereas in I Stand Alone full penetration is shown continuously for over a minute.
