thank you Sarah Iliff for this fun (slightly infuriating) fact

Here is an outrageous Vagina Fact (that has been updated to reflect current research) from the book “The Technology of Orgasm,” by Rachel Maines:

It is illegal to sell vibrators in the following states: Alabama, Texas, Mississippi, Georgia, Louisiana, Virginia and Indiana. In some states, if you are caught with intent to sell, you could receive up to five thousand dollars in fines and face up to 3 years of hard labor. It is totally legal to sell guns in all of these states. We have yet to hear of a mass murder committed with a vibrator.
