44. Do uppity women trigger gunhumping MRAs?

And it doesn't look like those who participate will face disciplinary action — a spokesperson for UT Austin told Refinery29 that the university supports civil displays of freedom of expression, and that it appears the planned protests qualify as "protected political speech."

Dildos are a particularly apt implement for an anti–campus carry demonstration, and not just because they share space with guns as stand-ins for human penises. Texas lawmakers have long been more scared of dildos than they are of guns—the sale of sex toys was illegal in the state until 2008. (Then–solicitor general Ted Cruz staged a valiant court effort against the right to “stimulate one’s genitals for non-medical purposes unrelated to procreation,” but he lost.) It’s still a misdemeanor crime to openly display a dildo or other obscene material in public; the act could carry the consequence of a $500 fine.


But a UT spokesman said the school’s administration considers Cocks Not Glocks a demonstration of free speech, not prurient spectacle. “Students have a right to express themselves,” he told the Austin American-Statesman. “This appears to be protected political speech.”


Jin’s Facebook event has attracted a fair number of haters who feel more threatened by protesters with dildos than a college student with a gun. “There’s a lot of people openly expressing that they would take joy if we were assaulted or raped with our protest devices,” Jin told CityLab. “They’re like, ‘We can’t wait to see them get raped by their own toys, because they’d be inviting sexual assault, and then they’ll wish they had a gun.’” The protest just started yesterday, but it sounds like there were already a ton of dicks on the UT campus.
