. . . remember the lady in Burleson that was prosecuted for selling, er, "devices" at little adult Avon parties? The prosecutor in Johnson County finally came to his senses and dismissed the case. Of course, the big point of discussion (even on the national morning shows) was: Shouldn't any law in the state of Texas that makes the selling of those devices illegal be declared unconstitutional as a violation of the right of privacy?
Well, guess what? We have a development. A trial judge threw out a similar prosecution in El Paso and the government appealed. Last week, the appellate court in El Paso ruled that the prosecution can continue! To make your head spin, you have to read the fairly short opinion that ends with: "It is appropriate for the [government] to act to protect the social interest or order, morality, and decency by restraining commercial dealing in . . . objects designed or marketed for use primarily for the stimulation of [the privates].

This country is to freakin' uptight. Maybe if we all had some good orgasms we would all loosen up a bit.
Hmmm...the lack of comments for this post suggests to me that a large portion of the county owns and uses sex toys and no one wants to say anything because they all feel guilty. Hee hee....I'll bet I'm right....more right than anyone will EVER admit to.
Been a cop in Wise County for years and I'll tell you this... there are more dildos in Wise County than there are mobile homes or meth labs. What's the real issue? Is it that people are ashamed of their toys? Get over it!
Hell, I am not ashamed!! My hubby and I have a great sex life but we often spice it up with toys!! One of my friends told me the other day that we needed to have another "Girls Night Out" party soon! So the planning is in the works as I type. Ooops, I hope that the cops don't come find us.....
