The government really doesn't belong in anybody's bedroom. If consenting adults want to waste their money on stupid stuff, let them! No one is being harmed, and it might even help a marriage or two. Sheesh.

 

I didnt know it was illegal to sell that stuff.

Weird outdated laws...I guess every state has them.

You know, here in Oklahoma, Oral Sex isnt legal. Even by a married couple. Also, any sexual position other than missionary is considered illegal also.

 

wow, i never knew all this

I thought it never mattered how we prayed in this country so I assumed that it never mattered how we f***ed.

 

This is just stupid. If the stuff they bought is causing problems in their marriage, how is that the merchants' fault? Nothing was malfunctioning or anything......

 

Maybe it wasn't the merchandise that was malfunctioning and they need someone to blame.

Personally, my favorite quote from the article is

 

Don't blame the women who bought the stuff, blame the evil people who sell it!

 

Everyone knew what they'd be exposed to, and it didn't harm a soul...it's a bad law, in my opinion.

 

Yeah well, what can I say? Texas is only the second largest state.

 

[News voice]In response to this bust, adult product peddlers begin to sell their products in the shady ghettos of Texas in overly large overcoats en masse. Interested customers are seen leaving the general suspected areas with plastic bags containing what seems to be dildos...[/News voice]

 

Heh...when its actually described and its uses its illegal, but as a "novelty" it is not...lol

 

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Texas have unusually a lot more strip joints and sex shops per capita compared to other states?

 

Boy, I can't wait to see your source for this "fact"

 

Doesn't look like he's stating it as a fact, but then again I'm the village idiot so my opinion means nothing.

 

I can't find cold hard proof, but a quick search yielded literally hundreds of different sources claiming Portland, OR to have more strip clubs per capita than anywhere else. Even more than Nevada. So that's ALMOST a fact, I guess.
