No porn for you !

Generally, any time you see a list like that it's made up by some lawyer to minimize risks. You'll often find those zip codes have filed "obscenity" related charges against someone. Former PornUsers Senior Administrator

They've got adult bookstores and movie theatres in Indianapolis. You'll just have to buy local. I wanted something new, so I left England for New England.

No because the law governing internet porn are different than for mailed content. I'm sure that Max Hardcore could explain the differences to you because he found out the hard way. Long live the Brown Coats.

Fortunately we have the Internet, and the beautifully borderless frontier of (seemingly) neverending porn it has opened!

And not to rag on the heartland but come on, seriously? Sorry, but you don't get my vote for "Real America" until you can handle adult entertainment like an adult, as well as at least acknowledge the existence of evolution, if not bother to teach it in public schools. (Try and give me a reason why I shouldn't continue to avoid these states like the plague.)

Interestingly, Utah is supposed to be high on the list of consumers of Internet porn, so it's apparently not just blessed underwear and clean living in the no-porno-in-the-mail states.

I guess it's another reason to ditch physical media entirely and go digital, assuming it's not illegal to ship large hard drives as well (seeing as there's probably science and stuff involved in their manufacture). This also reminds me of when ALSScan sold DVDs and VHS tapes--remember those? --and they had a fairly long list of no-mans lands that they couldn't/wouldn't ship to.

I think sex toys are verboten in all of Texas, and a few other states as well, but I believe it ultimately depends on what the item is sold as.

For example, Hitachi's pussy-pleasing Magic Wand is sold damn near everywhere as nothing more than an innocent personal massager, even Walmart (fulfilling, I assume, the "Live Better." part of their corporate slogan).

Try doing that with something that's an obvious dildo or sex toy and the fundies will likely want you tarred and feathered. But I wouldn't be surprised if there's a "medicinal" out to legally sell most sex toys as "medical devices" the same way you can find a "doctor" in Los Angeles who can write you a prescription for medicinal marijuana.

Funny some laws are for everyone.
And some are just built to control society.

Prostitution and adult entertainment has been around for thousands of years. And our supposed civilized society is scared by the naked body !
Does not sound very advanced or civilized.

Websters:
Definition of CIVILIZED
: characteristic of a state of civilization ; especially : characterized by taste, refinement, or restraint

So question would be, does porn make us more civilized or less? Since 2007

Aren't all laws built to control everyone?

I would say more civilized...if we can handle it like rational adults who are mature enough to recognize that sex is a natural part of life. *

If instead porn makes you visibly upset and gets you to start babbling about "morals and values" and so forth--and not in any sort of ironic sense--then I would say you are not civilized. Go back to kindergarten, or better yet, some enlightened paradise of prudishness like Saudi Arabia--no porn, no problem!--and leave us sinful creatures the hell alone.



* P.S.: Here's a simple Wikipedia graphic to illustrate my point. Generally, the more tolerant of porn, then the freer the country. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Very interesting. I wonder what's up with Australia.

I saw more PTA* on Bondi Beach than in my local "gentlemen's club" last winter (their summertime) yet they restrict porno? I suspect there's an oops in the map.

*PTA = pussy tits and ass
