Republican Rep. Hillary Hickland from Texas wants sexually explicit items removed from common stores like Walmart and Target to protect children. She filed HB 1549 to limit the sale of sex toys to adult-oriented businesses only, citing concerns about protecting children’s innocence while shopping. The bill aims to prevent regular retail stores from selling such items, following a history of restrictions on the sale of sex toys in Texas. The legislation comes as a response to recent protests highlighting the inconsistency in regulations between sex toys and guns on public university campuses.
