Texas woman faces obscenity charges - for selling vibrators

Or, more accurately, for selling vibrators and admitting (to two undercover police officers) that they're vibrators. As the article points out, it's perfectly legal to sell them in Texas... just as long as you claim they're novelties and avoid mentioning their sexual uses.

Maximum sentence, if she's found guilty, is a year in prison.

Sounds like a news story you'd expect from Iran, not America... and do the Texas police really have nothing better to do with their time?

"Texas law allows for the sale of sexual toys as long as they are billed as novelties, BeAnn Sisemore, a Fort Worth attorney representing Webb, told the Houston Chronicle before a gag order was issued by the judge presiding over the case"

...sorry, but it's late and it made me laugh. :)
