From: Mr Red Law banning male masturbation - House Bill 4260, called the “Man’s Right to Know Act,” Snopes.com does not seem to have an answer just yet.

From: Vashta Nerada Yes it was real, but no one expected it to pass in this bright red state with the GOP dominating the house, senate, and governorship.
