    If they would prevent people and companies to own more than six houses or flazs, that would make way more sense.

    Does Texas employ door-to-door dildo inspectors?

    Is there a state office of dildo regulations, wieghts, and measures?

    What are they going to do next? Make registry of dildos? Have a dildo buyback program? Regulate the length and girth?

      Home inspections would trigger lots of backlash. This will just regulate physical stores because the lawmakers are boomers. Also you can’t have a massively-multi-dildo display at home if you expect snitches to come over.

      Maybe they’ll use this as an excuse to monitor people’s online activity and/or mail. What if you’re buying dildos? Also lathes and 3D printers might become popular among sex shops for on-demand production. Invest!

    The very people that come up with these pearl clutch laws are the same people who also want to legalize marrying 12 year olds. But won’t anyone think of the children, PLEASE!

    Does my double-ended dildo count as one or two? Does size matter? Does a tarzan with bunny ears count as one or two? Does my hand count? How about a cucumber?

    So many questions.

      At this rate they’ll need to define and standardize what constitutes a dildo so they can ban the right things. At what length is a dildo dangerously concealable? Do fully vibromatic dildos need to be more strictly controlled? Is a cucumber a dildo, or an AOP (Any Other Phallus)? Should doctor’s offices hold dildo buybacks?

    What if they’re dildo shaped guns? Would Texas ever dare to ban those?

    Will there be an official Office of Dildo Inspections? With Dildo Inspectors making rounds, carefully checking every household for staying within their allotted number of items? Will the billboards aside the vast highways advertise the government hotline for anonymous reporting of infractions?

    And if not, well, they’re clearly cowards. If you’re going to pass a law like that, you have to go all the way!

    Seriously though, I sometimes wonder how this period of time will be described in history books 50 years from now.

    The reason it is limited to six is because “And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.” Genesis 2:2
