The tenth amendment.

Why does the Federal government get to decide every issue in the world?

Maybe we should have a limited Federal government and the unspecified powers remain with states.

if people don’t like their state’s view of sexuality then they can move.

I also think there is a basic safety issue. Why should people be able to sell body penetrating materials at in home tupperware sales?

There actually are real dangers that emergency rooms deal with on a regular basis.

Why can’t states regulate that danger like wearing a motorcycle helmet?

Chastity belts went out of style a few hundred years ago.

Laws on interpersonal relationships ARE outside the pervue of State Government. States don’t have a Constitutional Right to regulate interpersonal relationships that do not involve prostitution. Religious nutcakes in Texas don’t have any business “legislating” other’s personal sexual behavior. Looks as though the Fifth Circuit and the SCOTUS have agreed. The idea that people would have to move to be able to use sex toys is a laughable notion. Good for the courts on this one.

Sometimes people need to just mind their own damn business.
