I grew up in Mississippi so I can attest to the lack of sex stores. We didn’t even have (legal) liquor stores until the 60s. In the 70s, I just ordered toys and condoms from mail order. Talk about difficulty ordering by mail and then never knowing when the post person would deliver it.

I really dislike the current two party system, The Liberals and The Trumpers. I have almost always self identified as Libertarian but that’s never been an option in voting. At the moment, you are either Correct in thinking like the Democrats or an f’ing loon. Since there’s not a nickels worthof difference between politicians of the Democratic or Republican Party, I guess I’ll continue to not worry either way. Anyway, the TV stations, printers, newspapers, and now Google, are the ones that get rich from politics. Ok, cranky old man mode off.
I really appreciate this comment! Hard to believe that Mississippi didn’t have legal liquor stores until the 60s. I mean, I believe it, of course. But that speaks volumes. Your political take is also interesting. One thing that always struck me in my trade reporter days was how many libertarian pornographers I met. To those pornographers the Right was the moral majority (a threat), while the Left shunned them (a different kind of threat). Plus, many of the older pornographers, and some of the younger ones, had some first hand experience with federal law enforcement, which I think led to a kind of low-key libertarian POV.
“ In 1966, Mississippi became the last state to repeal its statewide Prohibition law and pass the current law allowing counties to decide for themselves whether they wanted to legalize liquor sales. The distribution of alcohol in Mississippi is now state-controlled. The Mississippi Department of Alcohol Beverage Control imports, stores and sells 2,850,000 cases of spirits and wines annually.” - AP 2021
I’m happy to report I sold way over 10,000 cases a year for close to 5 years while in college. And even in the counties that didn’t legalize liquor, there were multiple bootleggers. I know because it’s quite possible that some of the liquor I sold was to some of those bootleggers.
The Store that Romantic Adventures is located in was a Bootlegger spot back in the day. We still find little brown bottles along the creek and when we do a plumbing repair or dig something up.

There are shotloads of these stores in Mississippi. You probably haven't been here in 30 years.
