Government so small it can fit in your bedroom!

How were they enforcing this?

[-] Aaron@lemmy.nz 10 points 2 days ago

They'll know I'm breaking the law, because I'll be flying my custom gadsen flag with 7 dildoes on it that reads "Come and count them"

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 3 points 2 days ago

That just lets people know you have dildos to steal

[-] Badeendje@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago

It's just a tack on when they do search warrants.. oh we did not find any drugs but we found 7 dildos.. Off to prison!

Is there a shortage of dildos in Texas that they need such laws to stop hoarding?

[-] RangerJosie@lemmy.world 41 points 3 days ago

There is decidedly not a shortage of dildos in Texas.

Have you seen their politicians?

[-] mossy_@lemmy.world 21 points 3 days ago

those are just plain ol' dicks

The great Republican war on orgasms have begun.

[-] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 48 points 3 days ago

They've been stopping orgasms from happening for a long time.

Is there a limit on total footage? Does a double ended dildo count as two? Is a Christmas tree of dicks ok since it's more than 6, but is Christian?

[-] Zombiepirate@lemmy.world 45 points 3 days ago

Need to go candelabra style with them all attached at the base.

[-] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 35 points 3 days ago

They just need to add a way to mount it to a gun and then its not a dildo, its a gun accessory.

I’m guessing they are not limiting the number of guns you can own though.

Ever bring a dildo to a gun fight?

Look, I have SIX perfectly fine dildos, all in their individual velvet pouches. My grandma even gives me a knowing wink when she sees them on my nightstand (she's very with-it, my grandma). But the minute I walk into Walmart and snag NUMBER SEVEN - BAM! 💥 The world implodes. Little Timmy starts twerking in the cereal aisle, the self-checkout beeps incessantly with unholy vibrations, and a rogue bag of gummy worms spontaneously transforms into a life-size silicone replica of the Lone Star State... it's CHAOS, I tell ya! This clearly-reasonable six-dildo limit is PROTECTING our precious Texas innocence. Seven just unleashes the primal urges, and nobody wants that, especially not while picking out a new can of Copenhagen. 🤠

First, they came for the dildos, and I did nothing.

[-] Tuxman@sh.itjust.works 18 points 3 days ago

They came for the dildos….. and BOY did they came!!!

Snorted and almost choked on my coffee when I scrolled past this.

The worst part about this is that I'd rather Republicans waste time with pointless legislation such as this rather than something damaging that they could actually enforce.

I don't know how to make a quote line but this one stood out to me and made me laugh.

"Parents do not consent to their children being exposed to obscene devices while shopping for toothpaste."

What stores sell toothpaste next to adult toys?

[-] PineRune@lemmy.world 70 points 3 days ago

My local supermarket has sex toys on upper shelves in the family planning section, which is in the healthcare department. They don't look like dongs, so people shouldn't recognize what they are unless they know about them already. But kids might still ask their parents what that is on the shelf, and that is apparently worse than school shootings.

My Walmart has them next to the pharmacy, 2 or 3 aisles away from the toothpaste

Meijer has them on the same aisle as the deodorant

This has very strong “If I can’t make my wife come, nobody will ~~cum~~ come!” vibes.

[-] Zip2@feddit.uk 25 points 3 days ago

I think it’s got religious overtones. One per day except the sabbath, when you have to leave your holes free for God to enter. Like Mary did.

Neo-puritanism needs to die. I'm getting excited because I think humanity is just generally getting fed up with control. We're done with this shit.

At least none of these people should be violent. They can have their views. But law is always violent. So it has no business being an extension of anyone's sexual views. If you violently impose your sexual perspective on others you are as good as a rapist in my book.

There are definitely some Texas billionaires that own more than six politicians.

[-] Darkassassin07@lemmy.ca 62 points 3 days ago

Yes. Texas bans the possession of or promoting use of more than six dildos.

It does make exceptions for people who have the multiples of the device for medical and law enforcement purposes.

Lmao. Police officers can legally use an array of didos for 'law enforcement'.

You'll be arrested if you cheer them on for it tho...

BUT if you can prove it's medically necessary; you're welcome to have a cornucopia of rubber cocks.

[-] Letstakealook@lemm.ee 29 points 3 days ago

I think the DOJ needs to investigate how exactly the police in Texas have been using dildos in the performance of their duties...

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 53 points 3 days ago

How...how are they enforcing this?

[-] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 90 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Its something to charge you with when the cops go on a fishing expedition at your house for weed or whatever else.

Its just a punishment law that cops get to use at their discretion totally fairly.

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 35 points 3 days ago

At least they can fuck themselves while they're at it I guess

Rofl, they were afraid for their right to bear arms instead of their right to bear dildos.

The solution is clearly to set up sex toy libraries.

I would never have thought to go to walmart to buy a sex toy if I hadn't seen them somewhat prominently displayed on my way towards the vitamin aisle.
