Sending Nude Photos Without Permission will be Illegal in Texas Starting September 1

 

SAN ANGELO, TX -- Texas Governer Gregg Abbott signed a new bill involving sexting that will become active September 1. 

Under House Bill 2789, offenses would include "visual material" that depicts "any person engaging in sexual conduct or with the person's intimate parts exposed" or "covered genitals of a male person that are in a discernibly turgid state" that "is not sent at the request of or with the express consent of the recipient."

Here's a Video of Gov. Abbott discussing the new law:

It's great to know he's worried about all the right meaningless bullshit.
