It appears there is a strong possibility that the Supreme Court will have to start asking question about dildos in the near future:

The Texas ban on dildoes -- yes, it expressly mentions "dildo" -- has just been struck down by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. The law, the court held, violates Lawrence v. Texas right of "adult consensual sexual intimacy in the home."

On this, the Fifth Circuit disagrees with the Eleventh Circuit, which upheld a similar Alabama law last year. Sounds like there's a solid split, so there's a decent chance that the U.S. Supreme Court will step in to resolve this (though there's of course no guarantee).

A split... on dildos?  That's huge!  It will be interesting to see how the most esteemed of Supreme Court Justices will handle talking about sexual devices in open court.  I'm sure the makers of the Sears Roebuck catalog will be quite relieved if the ban is overturned in all states.
