Let me guess: his wife caught him watching gay porn and since he is a good Christian he wants to save others from falling into the same trap? And now his wife is really proud of him?

This is like... Middle East religion police stuff.

We should all consider the meta of the situation as well, with an upcoming Republican candidate election, and the need to drive people out to the voting booth.

Honestly asking for second opinions: Looking at the report of the actual proposal, it seems to only target sexual content containing people under 18? Am I missing something?

Based on a picture in the article of the first page of the law as its written, it seems to be modifying/enhancing an existing law that currently only affects minors, broadening it so that it covers all ages, and under new additional rules. IANAL.

Go to another state 🤷‍♂️

You're in the Poland of the US.

I can't believe it's men who want this law, it sounds like a feminist wet dream. Marriages are going to the rise, but at what cost? Who's benefiting and where's the money behind it?

In strict Islamic countries like pakistan, afganistan, yemen+ many middleeastern countries and some provinces in bangladish, india and so on.., men have 0 access to pussy; it's all illegal: no porn, no escorts, and no girlfriends are allowed, ( gay is not even an option on this list). so everyone gets married early, and there's hardly any grown person who is not, but these laws are miserable for men

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

I mean, SWERFs are a thing, but that they are a meaningful category is in major part because they don't represent mainline feminist thought.

I wish I didn't live in my COMMUNIST blue state where I can freely watch porn, read books, receive healthcare, feed hungry kids, breath clean air, turn around in driveways without getting shot and an abortion if I or my 10 year old daughter gets RAPED! I would MUCH rather live in a Red State where it's only legal to shoot homeless people, go to church and breath fumes from the coal plant next door unless it gets too cold and I freeze to death!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

I agree with most of this, but don't act like your healthcare is enough if you live in the US.

The bill, set to be introduced next month by state Sen. Dusty Deevers (R-Elgin), would prohibit consuming or producing sexual content that “lacks serious literary, artistic, educational, political, or scientific purposes or value” in any medium.

Ok then, every piece of sexual content I produce or consume is in political protest of this specific bill. That should hold up in court. Bust one for Dusty!

This should be turned around like what was done with Rick Santorum (Santorum. Def: "the frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex.")

Back at the beginning of Google-bombing, this was one of the early incredibly successful campaigns. This one wasn't a neologism, but was another one that should be remembered just in case the ghoul Ann Coulter ever reemerges: I fucked Ann Coulter in the ass - hard.

We just need a good one for Dusty Deevers.

How about - Deever: The bifurcation of the urine stream out of the male sex organ

It plays on the sound of diverge, and is absolutely a thing people would want a word for. It will grow naturally as groups of dudes laughingly complain about it. And I bet old skeever deever will hate it.

I'm down with it; you have my vote.

Dusty Deevers is a cartoon name

He's just mad because he was born old. When they did the cracker jack at his fraternity, he could only season the cracker with a shot of of ol dusty.

Everyone involved in pushing this law should be barred from working in government, and fined for wasting our time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Just let them pass it then search their browser history. You know the only reason they're so concerned about it is they're ball's deep into it.

That guy watches so much porn

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

I don't want to engage in slander, but just extrapolating from previous conservative projection, that guy has a 15 year-old Honduran boy chained in his laundry room.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

15? A bit old for a guy like him, isn't he?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

😞 I really hope not. That'd be so horrible, yet the possibility lingers.
