    Bet you, every single one of the cunts pushing for this would have to immediately be convicted under the very same laws.

    So they basically just want to abolish free speech? This is the first step in that process. Once they get one law passed about something like porn it makes it super easy to amend that law at any time to include anything the state deems to be “dangerous”.

      Yeah porn is the easy target since not many politicians in Oklahoma are going to oppose it. Since it could damage their political image. Nobody wants to be labeled the porno guy/gal in the right wing news.

    any “acts of sexual intercourse,” including those that are “normal or perverted, actual or simulated.”

    So there goes the majority of mainstream movies too, I guess 🤦

    I would propose expanding the second part to include oral and written delivery, not just digital. The only valid form of sexual dialogue is to be dance.

        Yes, but they don’t know that because they never actually read their “word of god” but get a raging erection when they hallucinate about a “good ol’ time” that actually never existed in the first place.

        If you’re not conveying both your sexual desire and prowess in a dance, then yeah. You’re doing it wrong. It’s why I never learned to dance.

    What is with the steady criminalization and paranoia with all things sexual in the last 15 yrs or so? It feels like more than the usual paranoia.

      I believe it is how self-proclaimed christians are responding to sexual and gender liberty/tolerance. They see it as lost ground in their crusade against deviance. So they are escalating things beyond reason in order to sooth their own conscience.

      That’s how I see it. Closeted bigots being closeted bigots.

        Also feels like Gen z is more prudish and so, even if they don’t really agree with these movements, they also aren’t as affected, so don’t really care about it happening either.

        Exactly. If they don’t understand, like or want it for themselves, nobody is allowes to have it and they will defund, ban and punish.

        See sexuality, reproductive health, the arts, basic education, etc.

      They’re losing the culture war, both at a societal level and a political one. So they’re lashing out, ideally with what are the last gasps of their regressive ideology

    The lawmakers pushing this should have their browsing history and message logs examined by a team of data recovery experts.

    I can assure you, they are into some weird shit but they spout these bullshit platitudes about turning others away from sin. It’s almost certainly because they are embarrassed or insecure about their own desires.

    would prohibit consuming or producing sexual content that “lacks serious literary, artistic, educational, political, or scientific purposes or value” in any medium.

    MOST porn is art because it has a camera as a medium, and it is viewed as “Entertainment”, this bill will have no teeth on arrival.

    My main problem is that this kind of logic is next door neighbors with, “That woman was dressed in a pornographic way! She should be dressed from head to toe in black!”

    Edit: correction

      Wasn’t this exactly what the Larry Flint case was about already? Sounds like political grand standing, so they can say they did something even if that something is completely moot anyway.

      “That woman was dressed in a pornographic way! She should be dressed from head to toe in black!”

      There’s no production there. Though… if we were to accept that it counts for “production” then technically… if you the “viewer” of that person view it in a sexual way, you’d be able to be held by the law as well.

    Can anyone tell me which year it is in Oklahoma? It can’t be anything starting with 20, 19, or even 18, that’s for sure.
