And Now Yahoo Has Filtered Out Nudist
Published on August 5, 2004 By Tim Mack In Non-Fiction
For some reason that I find hard to fathom, the recent news story about the Federal Court upholding Alabama's ban on dildo's got either little or no attention in the media. Thanks to the Federal Court, woman in Alabama no longer have the right to buy a sex toy. And if someone sells them a sex toy they can get up to a ten thousand dollar fine and a year in jail.

People are trying to kill us. Over three thousand people were lost at the World Trade Center during the 911 attack. And what are we doing? Were going after people that sell sex toys in Alabama.

I wish I were making this story up and it was all some kind of a joke, but I'm not. This is the link to the news story in case you may doubt me. Federal Court Upholds Aabama Law

When did nudity become a bad word? What happened? Dick Cheney used the F word so now its cool. So nudity has replaced the F word or something. I used the N word the other day on a UK site and I had no problem. To prove my point, here is the link I used at the UK site that had the dreaded N word in it. This is the link to “I Should Have Been A Nudist,” a story that I recently had published at ABC Tales.I Should Have Been A Nudist

Now, I tried to use this very title at Yahoo today and the Yahoo filter sent me back a message that the word nudist can not be used as part of a title. Were all born nude and now we can't use the word. What's dirty about the word nudist? There are nudist camps, nudist beaches etc. Okay, I'm not a nudist myself, I mean I spend to much on clothes to be a nudist, but I never thought of the word nudist as something dirty.

Anyway, the story I wrote “I Should Have Been A Nudist” is 100% clean. There's no sex in it or bad words or anything. Its just a story about a conversation that I had with my nephew while driving out to the shopping mall. Wanted to make sure he had plenty of clothes so he'd never want to be a nudist I suppose. If Yahoo were just a minor site I wouldn't be concerned. But 59% of all Americans that surf the web use Yahoo. To think that now 59% of Americans can no longer use the word nudist in a Yahoo link title is very disturbing.

Our rights and our way of life in America have been eroding away for way to long. Before it goes any further lets send a message that when the Federal Courts take away a woman's right to play with a dildo anywhere in America they are going to be sent packing.

I am in Texas and they pressed charges against a women who was selling sex toys. They ended up dropping the charges but how stupid. I really think law enforcement resources can be better used than being the sex police. I am in the "who does it hurt camp". Probably some legislator was feeling inferior to size of a dildo and had to outlaw them.

"who does it hurt camp".


Well, I guess it depends on who is doing what to whom and with what and where and why and how.

I was once in a state that bordered Alabama. There were 7 woman for every guy there. With the shortage of guy's there, that's one place were women really need a sex toy. I remember going to a place there where that had dancing. I was sitting at a table having a drink with a fine looking woman and then her Mom came over to the table and sat down with us. All of a suden her Mom started playing footsie with me under the table. I can tell you from experience, they need their sex toys.

just imagine the chaos if someone were to dump a couple gross cartons of 'pocket rocket' brand personal massager on the al sadr militia.   (or maybe some much bigger ones in hopes of cloggin up those shoulder launchers?)

How dare they????

That is the most inhumane thing ever. I am going to take it upon myself to start a personal crusade to ensure that every woman in Alabama has a dildo - whether she wants one or not. I mean, there are towns in the US which require you by law to own a gun, right? Why not dildos as well. They make people a lot happier, they aren't as threatening (well, depending on who's brandishing it!) and come in a wide variety of colours!

More power to the vibrator!
