Re: We’re All Sex Offenders Now, and Re: Allen Johnson

Posted by on November 21 at 16:02 PM

In the Allen Johnson solo show that Dave Schmader posted about earlier today, Mr. Johnson recounts performing a sex act with a mannequin in the back room of a now-defunct Seattle department store — exactly the type of mannequin sex that is apparently illegal in South Dakota, as Dan Savage notes below.

The friends with whom I saw the Allen Johnson show were all trying to figure out which defunct Seattle department store the mannequin sex might have occured in, but none of us thought Johnson should be registered as a sex offender.

(Confidential to Allen Johnson: If your show goes to South Dakota, plead the fifth.)
