People can get up in arms and call it absurd but I can’t say that bothers me.
Then you have the wrong job as a representative.
The target obscure British comedy group named after the pet snake of one of their WW2 generals wrote a song about this exact situation:
It shall be unlawful for a person to discharge genetic material
Genetic Material is DNA. Dry skin falling off is technically discharging genetic material. As is bleeding…
Technically a woman would be grossly violating this with every period… or by giving birth.
That’s satirical, right?
Right?
☹️
10k just be be able to jerk it 3 times? This guy is a loser. I’ll jerk it all day for free. He can’t charge me a fee
Makes sense. They’re all a bunch of dicks.
(4) This section shall not apply to the discharge of genetic material: … ( b ) Discharged with the use of a contraceptive or contraceptive method intended to prevent fertilization of an embryo.
So basically it’s illegal to do so without the intent to fertilize an embryo… unless doing it as part of a contraceptive method? Isn’t abstinence - e.g. not having sex - a legitimate method?.. wouldn’t masturbation be a way to manage abstinence?
I kept looking for the Onion link and never found it.
(a) Donated or sold to a facility for the purpose of future procedures to fertilize an embryo;
This means it’s legal to pull out and fill a jar to donate to such a facility.
Always has been
🤣

( b ) Discharged with the use of a contraceptive or contraceptive method intended to prevent fertilization of an embryo.SECTION 2.
This act shall take effect and be in force from and after July 1, 2025Shit, I vomited without intent to fertilize an embryo
I know its Mississippi but this guy has to realize this targets women with a bias. Men: “Don’t masturbate or have sex for fun!”… Damn that sucks… Women: “Don’t masturbate or have sex for fun!.. oh and don’t ever release an egg again”. Wait I cant exist as a woman pre menopausal? Nope
That and I would worry that if people took it too seriously, it could lead to a lot more rape.
Unfortunately, since their joke is badly written, it might be interpreted has you said. Yet, please notice, with the title of this law ( “Contraception Begins at Erection Act” ) that it
is targetingwas supposed to target men.Both the clitoris and the nipples can become erect. (I know it’s a joke but I can help but smile thinking of an erect clitoris) Lol
Yes it’s fun to look at this joke in different ways and to think of how it could be written in much better ways.
This will only effect incel wet dreams
LMAO. are they seroius!!!
Doesn’t look serious, but it is funny!
I love that an actual person wasted their time writing this and bringing it up with their colleagues lol
Sure, some may say it’s absurd, but masturbation inspector is a good paying, high quality American job that cannot be exported overseas, and not a job I’d trust to AI.
That state senator is a visionary!
If the Democrats aren’t going to be useful, I’m glad they’ve at least decided to be a little funny.
It’s a race to the bottom now. And the Republicans have a huge head start. Dems are nosediving to catch up.
To highlight how absolutely stupid this bill is, it sounds like it would outlaw menstruation and nocturnal emissions.
Land of the free.
Edit: it sounds like this is intentionally facetious to point out the absurdity of other pro-life bills.
It’s really telling how much the Overton window in the US has shifted that you thought this was sincere to start with.
TBH it’s more that I have a naive work ethic and assume someone performing such a serious and impactful job would only do so sincerely, but I agree.
Menstruation is already outlawed if out includes an unimplanted but fertilized egg.
It’s just very hard to prove.
I would love to outlaw menstruation too but my fucking body won’t listen to me
Careful, that post could be used against you in the court of law!
It respects the law.
Didn’t you hear? Our bodies answer directly to the government now
Uh, yeah?
If your weiner can’t behave when you are AFK it should be in jail!
Yes, correct, it is as absurd as pro-life ideas.
