I thought this meant HPV vaccinations so I googled it. Nope. They said up said it’s illegal to “be recklessly responsible for” the spread of HPV. Like WTAF?!

keep in mind there is no such thing as an HPV test for AMABs (it doesn't exist), so how do they expect to enforce it for anyone but women/AFABs? hard to deny that they are being targeted here

Just like the laws banning the establishment of Shari Law, the GOP votes on meaningless shit as a hat tip to their brainless supporters.

and what's the legal definition of "recklessly" in this context? who knows, leave it up to corrupt judges to decide...

It means being a slut. They can’t actually outlaw being a slut, so they outlaw something that applies to virtually everyone having sex and then selectively apply the law.

🛎️🛎️ there it is! That’s the plan exactly. Equate the law with one’s arbitrary whims.

So Oklahoma is going to prosecute people who have plantar warts and use public showers?

Yeah, "recklessly spreading." A bunch of y'allqueda are about to be dragnetted. Maybe we'll hear of some working girl to fine charges against a politician patron?
