My local supermarket has sex toys on upper shelves in the family planning section, which is in the healthcare department. They don’t look like dongs, so people shouldn’t recognize what they are unless they know about them already. But kids might still ask their parents what that is on the shelf, and that is apparently worse than school shootings.

My Walmart has them next to the pharmacy, 2 or 3 aisles away from the toothpaste

Meijer has them on the same aisle as the deodorant

Put > before the line

The Meijer I shop at regularly has vibrators in the same aisle as toothpaste, might be the next aisle over but they’re real close to each other.

I’m guessing that part is performative. I doubt there are dildos for sale at Walmart.

Maybe they were talking about those vibrating obscene electric toothbrushes

Funny how they use the word “consent” here that is usually used by progressive people to advocate for safe sex. This is surely done on purpose. To make it sound like seeing dildos in the store is something close to sexual harassment.

Funnily enough, they frame it as sexual harassment against the adults. As in “now I have to explain my child about sex toys”. And completely ignore the children’s perspective. If there was any risk in seeing sex toys, the children would be much more prone to getting “damaged”, as they are children. But since when do “conservatives” even care about the health and safety of children?

The parents should be very well able to deal with seeing sex toys. They are adults after all.

The children will not care about just seeing the sex toys. The biggest risk is that the parents scare them with a bad explanation, and then when they get older they will be scared of sex or think they need to do some things they don’t want to.

That quote reminded me of this funny commercial https://youtu.be/_hgN4Fqulmw

What stores sell toothpaste next to adult toys?

I get why they would ban that. Texans might think toothpaste was lube for the dildo.
