 FORBIDDEN FRUIT PRESS RELEASE & CALENDAR NOTICE

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

NO FOOLIN'! THE TEXAS OBSCENITY STATUTE HAS BEEN OVERTURNED!

Celebration and Sale April 11-16, 2008

WHO:
FORBIDDEN FRUIT, Austin's Only Locally Owned Adult Boutique...

WHAT:
For 27 years Forbidden Fruit has served Austin's need for "Tastefully Naughty Gifts!" Now join us as we celebrate and get a little bit naughtier with a "Sex Toy Coming Out" party and sale!

Since 1973 Section 43.21 of the Texas Penal Code has prohibited the sale or promotion of ""Obscene device[s]" mean[ing] a device including a dildo or artificial vagina, designed or marketed as useful primarily for the stimulation of human genital organs." Additionally, as consumers or sellers of said devices, to own 6 or more of any kind "constitutes wholesale intent to promote" them.

As of 02/13/08, the law was declared unconstitutional and we will be doing away with our famous "educational model" signs and release forms! Come by and cheer with us during this milestone in Texas history, and see what great new items we are now able to carry, enjoy free gifts, libations, live music* and save 20% on all formally "obscene" items!

WHEN:

Sale- April 11-16, 2008

Instore Celebrations Sat April 12 Noon- 6pm.

WHERE:
Forbidden Fruit- 512 Neches Street, Austin, TX, 512.478.8358

AND

Forbidden Fruit- 108 East North Loop Boulevard, Austin, TX, 512.453.8090

WHY CELEBRATE? Since 1981, Forbidden Fruit has been a pioneer in developing a sex positive shopping environment dedicated to providing the best products, information and resources dedicated to intimacy enhancement for people of all sexual persuasions, and doing it under fear of harrassment and prosecution under this arcane law. Likewise, the citizens of Texas also faced possible prosecution of wholesale intent to promote if they were found to own 6 or more of said devices.With this historical overturn, businesses and consumers alike can celebrate one more constitutional right being restored and adult oriented products can "come out" of the closet, so to speak!

To learn more, please check out our website for information on our history and mission statement, our schedule of workshops and events, more thoughts on the ramifications of the overturn, and much more at www.forbiddenfruit.com

* Live Music by Heather Bishop's Graceful Riot and Tribella at North Loop only.

Ceremonial removal of signs and release forms at 3pm at Neches!
