Wasn’t the Virgin Mary 12? So New Testament? >

The right wing keeps wanting to change everything and destabilize the country because the stuff that has been stable is getting in their way.
The GOP and right wing are a danger to the future. >

I think that they have already tried this, and by the new definitions, a bunch of smaller stories in the Bible would mean that it would also need to be banned. So a bunch of Dems brought this to their attention and they got really upset about it. But it did violate their new definition of what was to be deemed unacceptable for schools and children. 🤣
I can’t remember if it was Florida or Texas, but they tried this recently. Like since the pandemic sort of recent. >


Republican Rep.-elect Jeanette Ward has introduced House Bill 87, which expands the definition of “child pornography” to mean “any visual depiction, including any photograph, film, video, picture, cartoon, drawing, computer or computer generated image or picture, whether or not made or produced by electronic, mechanical or other means, or any other form of depiction of explicit sexual conduct.” 
Based on this definition, many books that provide sexual health information to youth would be banned, along with several books that help LGBTQ+ youth learn about their identities.  
Ward also helped members of the anti-LGBTQ+ group Moms for Liberty get elected to the Natrona County school board. Moms for Liberty members have been running for school board positions across the country as part of the right-wing effort to shift schools toward a more conservative ideology.

​
This sort of rigamarole is sexual repression in action.
​
If you only think of LGBTQIA+ people as inherently sexual, you have an all-around weird fascination with sex. Their position is laughably stupid when considering the A is for asexual people like me.
​
Sexual repression and prudery is still an obsession with sex. Purity culture is still an obsession with sex. It's just obsessed with declaring everyone and everything wicked because they refuse to understand or learn anything past what the Bible says.
​
Republicans claim we are all sex-obsessed crazies, but I've found no one thinks more about sex than Republicans do. >


“any visual depiction, including any photograph, film, video, picture, cartoon, drawing, computer or computer generated image or picture, whether or not made or produced by electronic, mechanical or other means, or any other form of depiction of explicit sexual conduct.”

That sounds like all pornography. So milfs and gilfs are now child porn? >

because it's an empty threat, porn is covered by the 1st amendment, full stop, no getting around that, no matter how loud the right wing yells about it. >

What is and isn't covered by anything in our constitution is the sole discretion of the Supreme Court of the United States, which right now leans very heavily Conservative/Republican. >


"Reasonable people everywhere recognize these books as obscene . . . “

Religious fundamentalists are not “reasonable people.” >

Religious fundamentalism is a form of child abuse >

Just in case anyone forgets, here's a list of over 600 verified Republican sex offending politicians.
Just a reminder:

So nothing to do with actual child pornography... >

I guess they ran "grooming" into the ground and need to ruin another word. This is disturbing.
