That's interesting:

(f) A person who possesses six or more obscene devices or identical or similar obscene articles is presumed to possess them with intent to promote the same.

So it's not just 6 obscene devices, you could have two Rampant Rabbits and break the law. I assume a double-ended dildo counts as one obscene device unless they can be disengaged to make two identical ones.

"Obscene devices" is rather a loose term too. The kinky are likely to have quite a few knocking about but for personal use only.

They define them in 43.21(7), albeit, still quite loosely:

(7) "Obscene device" means a device including a dildo or artificial vagina, designed or marketed as useful primarily for the stimulation of human genital organs.

So maybe a devices like the magic wand is in the clear since it's marketed as a massager. I wonder if a vibrator could simply be repackaged and marketed as a massager, as well.

Interestingly, it doesn't include butt plugs - Republicans must love those, also penis cages and cock rings.

Pretty sure you can’t be married more than 6 times either. Coincidence? I think not!

So how exes do they enforce this? Random dildo count inspectors? Dildo registration?
