In 2023, the Texas state legislature passed Restricting Explicit and Adult-Designated Educational Resources Act — the READER Act, for short. The intent of the legislation was to shield students from obscene content and is roughly on a par with some of the efforts we’ve seen here in Virginia — such as Appomattox County and Botetourt County, among others — to restrict what’s available to whom. The interpretation of this law led one county last year to remove (temporarily) the Bible from its library shelves on the grounds that some parts of scripture aren’t exactly child-friendly.
we need to rethink “saving the children”.
insane censorship like this in a texas school district should be called out everytime.
Agreed. I can’t think of a single person who has been irreparably harmed by glimpsing a booby. The native Americans handled it fine. So did the Africans and Pacific Islanders. For thousands of years, they had no idea that they were committing a terrible offense until Europeans showed up and corrected them. Those cultures didn’t celebrate and flaunt their tatas like they have been taught to do now by Euro repression. So, which is better? This?
Maybe Texas legislatures are going to start checking ID’s at Museum entrances; removing children from homes where parents take their children to the Louvre.
Prude boob-a-phobia. I’ve done my share of traveling and have found myself on a topless beach or two. After about ten minutes, it’s like any other beach. You stop looking. I’m sure people can handle a flag. We don’t need American Sharia law.
