Winter Park, FL asked in Criminal Law for Florida

Q: This is a serious question, do not disregard due to the subject. Are dildos illegal to show in public in Florida?

I have a giant dildo that I use to mess with people just for fun. I hold it out the window of my car and most everybody laughs at it and finds it humorous. Today a woman took down my license plate and told me she was going to contact the police and tell them about my dildo and that I was going to be in big trouble. I need to know, are there any laws against dildos in public? It's not an actual penis so it can't be indecent exposure can it?

A: If this question is actually serious, you should at least get a conference with a criminal defense attorney. I would actually have to do research to answer your question, and I am not willing to do that for free. While I suspect that you might be right, your actions could perhaps be subject to criminal prosecution, for what exactly I do not know yet.
