    That’s interesting:

    (f) A person who possesses six or more obscene devices or identical or similar obscene articles is presumed to possess them with intent to promote the same.

    So it’s not just 6 obscene devices, you could have two Rampant Rabbits and break the law. I assume a double-ended dildo counts as one obscene device unless they can be disengaged to make two identical ones.

    “Obscene devices” is rather a loose term too. The kinky are likely to have quite a few knocking about but for personal use only.

      They define them in 43.21(7), albeit, still quite loosely:

      (7) “Obscene device” means a device including a dildo or artificial vagina, designed or marketed as useful primarily for the stimulation of human genital organs.

      So maybe a devices like the magic wand is in the clear since it’s marketed as a massager. I wonder if a vibrator could simply be repackaged and marketed as a massager, as well.

        They often are.

        Interestingly, it doesn’t include butt plugs - Republicans must love those, also penis cages and cock rings.

      For the double, if it counts as two when split it’d be illegal because two identical devices
