    At first I was like “barbaric”, but then I thought to myself that 6 dildos per person sounds abundant. I’ve decided to believe that they were about to fight an owner of 7 dildos and implemented that ban to reduce their power. Like “there are 7 of us and you have only 6 dildos what are you going to do” because the 7th dildo would be illegal.

    And yes I know that the grounds of this ban are absurd and barbaric, I do wish hunger and pestilence upon those who voted it in, it’s just that any discussion regarding it had to be hilarious. What are they trying to prevent by restricting the access to 7th dildo, gang wars?

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

    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.

        As a non-carbon based extraterrestrial lizard alien, he consumes the soft supple rubber that many dildos are made of as a form of sustenance.

    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.

      Don’t most people just buy them online anyway? How the fuck would they even enforce this? The whole thing is a joke.

        They’re criminalizing things more likely to be owned by people they’re trying to cleanse. Maybe cops show up and find you’ve exceeded your government allotted sex toy limit… would you lose your job? Your kids? Do you even call the cops? Do you hide the dildos in a gun safe and leave the guns out, to make the cops happy?

          I find it hilarious that cops are going to start driving around with dildos in their car. You know, in case they need to plant one.

      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.

      Like a car, they need to go for a ride every now and then, else they break.

      For a friend, of course.
