As much as I talk shit about the fact that there are so many laws in the United States that I do not agree with, I’m very thankful to have the liberties that I do. My girlfriend was telling me a story the other day about how she nearly got transferred to Russia a few jobs ago, but ended up convincing her bosses that it was a bad idea because they don’t exactly embrace the LGBTQ+ community over there. I can hold her hand when we’re walking in the park (socially distanced from others, of course) and I think that I forget how much of a privilege that is sometimes.
There are definitely places in the U.S. that are more conservative than the Dirty Jerz though. Alabama is one of those places. Sex toys are technically illegal there, which is a hell of a bummer.
Last week in Bangdung, Indonesia, tons of sex toys were confiscated and burned for the “good of the people.”
Last week, 442 pleasure devices were destroyed. During a press conference, Dwiyono Widodo (the customs guy who was in charge of the covert operation) decided to go for some shock jock antics. He proudly displayed one of the masturbation sleeves and a dildo that they had uncovered. The booty of their latest pleasure heist was burned to ashes while they looked on. How fucked up is that?
I can’t even imagine how badly 400 sex toys smells when you burn them.
The pandemic has caused sex toy sales around the world to surge through the roof. So many of us are looking for a way to get off and remain socially responsible about it. I’ve spent a few hundred dollars on new devices since I was cooped up in this house. Some of my friends have hit me up on the side asking about the newest clit stim toys and jerk off sleeves.
I love it, honestly.
I think it sucks that there are prudish places that have this idea that sex toys make people criminals. Sexual pleasure is something that can unite us, rather than it being something that rips people apart.
What do you Peepz think about sex toys being illegal? Do you think you would buy black market sex toys if they weren’t allowed in your country?
Let me know in the comments below or slide into my DMs on twitter to chat about it.
