Summary
A new Texas bill (SB 3003), introduced by Senator Angela Paxton, would require online sex toy retailers to verify buyers’ ages with government-issued photo IDs or third-party services.
Violations could result in Class A Misdemeanors and fines up to $5,000.
Critics say the bill echoes outdated obscenity laws and could push consumers to riskier retailers while creating privacy concerns.
Opponents argue it mirrors ineffective age verification laws seen nationwide and could lead to records of sex toy purchases being used against marginalized communities.
This is the sort of stuff Republican leadership concerns itself with. Dildo laws, while they cant keep the power on when it gets too hot or cold because they privatized their power grid.
Texas won’t infringe on your God given right to die of a preventable illness, but the power of the state protects its’ citizens from cylindrical silicone.
