Being a recent law school grad this seems like a great question for me, especally since I'm studying for the Bar right now. I seem to recall something about a federal statute making it illegal to distribute obscene materials using US mail. Of course, this raises the question of whether your pictures are obscene, which would generally require more than just a soft cock[SIZE=-1], usually something depicting rape scenes, sexual torture and urination and defacation in conjunction with sex acts[/SIZE]. You could argue 'art' and that might get by (under 1st amendment protections). Of course if they find it obscene that won't save you, and you would be making this argument in te nearest federal district court after federal agents came and took you away.

I would say don't do it, but this is in no way legal advice since I haven't passed the bar yet... just common sense!!!

Peace out!

Charlie, i think that is either almost as illegal, or equaly as illgeal, as flashing someone.

Its a lot worse. Indecent exposure is no where near as bad as being charged with the federal crime I describe above. Once you put this sort of thing in the mail you get the feds involved and you're talking heavy fines and long jail time. (see above link)

This is a strange question.. but I have a fantasy of sending pictures of myself cock exposed -- to some female celebrities.. especially known size-queens like Madonna or Heather Locklear etc. etc. and seeing if they respond, is this legal?
