    “Our family-oriented retailers should reflect the values of the communities they serve," Hickland said in a statement, according to Chron. “Parents do not consent to their children being exposed to obscene devices while shopping for toothpaste.”

    As a parent, I consent, so fuck you. Also, there’s nothing obscene about them. They’re in tasteful boxes, not flopping around on open display.

    If you’re so concerned about reflecting community values, leave it up to the communities to decide. You won’t, though, because you don’t actually care. You just want to ensure people only have orgasms on your terms.

    Why are Republicans so obsessed with sex? It’s weird and gross.

        There’s that funny book (of Soviet conformist sci-fi) “Andromeda Nebula”, where humans are all fit and healthy and walk around in tight thin suits hiding texture, but not form. It can be clearly seen that it’s author’s male dreams from a society where most families live as 3 generations stuffed together, with collectivism and backwards mentality, not much room for private life. But yes, maybe it’d be fine.

      If they are finding dildos next to the toothpaste, that’s a dumb walmart employee. Toothpaste is horrible lube. No more minty holes!

    But, the only way to stop a bad guy with 7 dildos is a good guy with 7 dildos

    The Texas government fears the person with 7 dildos. The prophecy foretold they will bring about the fall of christian values and begin The Age of Antifa.

      Yeah, been that way for at least a couple years. Ours used to have them out in the open, and you could just grab one alongside some bandaids or Tylenol; they put them behind glass just a few months ago.

    Don’t buy sex toys at Walmart. I feel like that’s some kind of heavy metal poisoning just waiting to happen

  • So 6 dildos is OK for the Texas government, but 7? Straight to jail. What a weird distinction.

    Also, who the fuck owns 6+ dildos? I mean I get there is variety, but there are only so many variations of dick-shaped devices you can make. Wanting to have a different one for every day of the week? Not judging. I’m just genuinely curious here. LOL.
