SudsyFist 0 #26 October 13, 2005 Quote(but TX seems to be so much more fun to pick on than the other states. ) Of course! When I start seeing "Don't mess with Nebraska" bumper stickers, you know Omaha's gonna get an earful! QuoteBut it's not that big of deal, since there is a much larger selection to order from online... True, but you can't try-before-you-buy online. The stuff's available for sure; I'm just pointing out how ludicrous the regulations are for the storefronts. Quote(Ok, I'll admit that I don't know that from personal experience - I've only been to the tamer "topless" clubs, but I've heard from male friends about the raunchier fully-nude clubs, especially the VIP rooms - I just never had any desire to go there myself because I am a prude. ) Prude??? YOU??? Aw, puh-leez! I'd like to invite your male friends to CA for a Pepsi Challenge. I assure you, there's a clear difference. Damn it! Now I'm jonesin'...

QuoteTrue, but you can't try-before-you-buy online. Well, after hearing about how you manhandle all the dildos, I'm not so sure I would want to buy one at a place where you can "try before you buy." QuotePrude??? YOU??? Aw, puh-leez! I AM a prude! And I've lived in CA for 4-5 years now and still have not been to a CA strip club! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casurf1978 0 #29 October 13, 2005 QuoteReligious conservatives often see lewdness and pornography as contributing to the overall decline of society, and thus regulation/repression of it helps halt societal decay. Yes agreed. Two shining examples of their moral superiority are Jimmy Swaggart and Jim Baker. They would never do anything that goes against conservative Christian family values.

For those not up on Texan lingo, a set-up is a dry bar where they only sell mixer but let you bring in your own personal bottle of booze or cooler full of beer. Quite the experiance I assure you. Nothin' like a 6-pack of rednecks a couple of cases of beer and a few bottles of tequila in a strip club illegible usually Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that's the way all of the nude bars down on Sunset Strip in Hollywood are(???) I seem to recall not wanting to go in them because none of them sold liquor - they were all BYOB and we didn't have our own B. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnRich 4 #34 October 13, 2005 QuoteThere's more to that story... And a Google search I did showed a news story of an elderly dead man found in that store about two months ago, apparently having died of a heart attack during an "intense" viewing session.

JohnRich 4 #35 October 13, 2005 QuoteAnd in a new move today, Texan Women will be required to wear Burkas while out on the streets. Okay folks, we've seen several messages like this now. I ignored the first one. But now it's too much. Just because some cop or DA is a prude and wants to prosecute stupid sex laws, does not mean that everyone in the state of Texas is a backward barbarian. Do not paint us all with the same brush.

GARYC24 3 #45 October 13, 2005 Here's another 'story' Woman Denies Possession of Vibrator - Clarice Jenkins, a housewife from Billings, Montana, refuted accusations leveled by her husband that a vibrator found in a drawer belonged to her. Robert Jenkins says that he “came home from work and accidentally bumped into her end table drawer. The resulting buzzing sound caused me to investigate further.” That was when the discovery of the vibrator occurred. Mrs. Jenkins originally tried to say that the vibrator belonged to their 8 year old daughter, Lorraine. When that excuse was not believed, she then said that it came with the drawer and she had never bothered to throw it away. Finally she admitted that she may have purchased a “pregnancy free penis substitute”, but definitely not a vibrator. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miked10270 0 #46 October 13, 2005 Well, here we are in "culture-conflict land again. In reading this, I was staggered at the reaction to The US "Passion Parties" company. Passion Parties is basically a copy of a UK company called "Ann Summers" which has been going for years with their reps doing their parties in peoples homes, community centres, and even... Wait for it.. LOCAL CHURCH & SALVATION ARMY HALLS!!! It's just part of the culture here - a "Girly-Night with some wine to get the giggles going when the rep's display of vibrators starts a buzzin' their way across the floor . Anyway, I decided to compare the 2 company's online shops: In the US Corner we have: http://www.passionparties.com/shop.html And. In the PRUDISH Brit corner we have: http://www.annsummersuncut.com/ Go ahead - everyone have a browse around the shops & compare Now... Here in the UK, the only time Ann Summers is really involved with the law is when some woman (16 or over) cites their husband refusing to allow her to host an Ann Summers Party as unreasonable behaviour and grounds for divorce - and would win! SERIOUSLY! For Brits, Ann Summers IS the main stream, acceptable face of the sex industry. You'll find their shops in town centres, malls & high streets throughout Britain. The Edinburgh branch is on Princes Street. It's the harder stuff that's generally tucked away for reasons of taste. Y'All know... Maybe if Texas had FEWER GUNS guns & more VIBRATIN' DONGS then they'd be more civilised! Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable.
