I REALLY don’t want to make anyone panic and spiral. That’s the last thing I wanna do especially since I tend to spiral a lot myself. But since most of the ppl in this fandom know what type of game is, I want to spread awareness about this bill and I encourage others to do the same.
Oklahoma bill SB593 would outlaw any depictions of sex in any medium
As it stands now, this bill would ban anything with a sex scene, sexual action, or depiction in it, meaning even romance novels or boudoir p
For any lads fans who live in Oklahoma this could maybe affect you if passed. Even if it’s just in that state it would still be bad because it could make other states follow suit.
On the surface it’s being pushed as a “protect the children/anti CP”bill that’s rlly trying to censor anything pornographic, lgbt related, or just anything these ppl label as “degenerate” even these same ppl are most likely involved in all kinds of sex scandals including ones with minors.
So no they don’t actually care about protecting children nor getting rid of CP. It doesn’t just include porn but also ROMANCE TOO. The bill quite literally violates the constitution.
But PLEASE DO NOT PANIC. THERE ARE WAYS TO STOP THIS!! Whether you live in Oklahoma or not Call and or email your reps/senators along with spreading awareness.
If you want to keep getting your AO3 fics and having access to Romance (and particularly the spicy stuff, the LGBTQIA+ stuff, or anything that’s not Little House on the Prairie), you need to be watching out for this. And if you’re in Oklahoma, LEAN on those House Representatives and Senators in your state, to make sure they vote against this, and continue to refuse to vote for it until all potential references to anything remotely indicating things like fanfic, fanart, and Romance as a whole is removed from the bill ENTIRELY.

Been saying antis are magats...
This is only in Oklahoma, for now, but...
This includes EVERYTHING. This is what we've been warning people about.
ALL ROMANCE.
MERE POSESSION.
...FELONY.
Bill currently sits at "25% progression." Just a 1st reading & referred to a committee.
Me one day ago: damn I need to finish some of my fanfiction WIPs before i lose interest in them
