If lesbians can’t even keep it classy in Florida, there really is no hope for our state’s weird-news reputation.
Jantavia Taylor was arrested for felony domestic assault after allegedly trying to beat up her live-in girlfriend with a strap-on dildo. No, we don’t mean “beat up” in any sort of slang usage. She threw the dildo at the other woman’s head.
Tamara Cadet, 23, told police that Taylor began chasing her around their Bradenton home with a kitchen knife. Cadet said she feared for her safety and ran out of the house.
Taylor, however, denied that a knife was involved. According to an arrest report obtained by the Smoking Gun, Taylor says the only thing she threw at her girlfriend was a strap-on dildo, or, as the arrest report so elegantly terms it, “a female sex toy (Strap on Penis).”
