Silly U.S. Sex Laws

Here are some of the silliest laws cited in the Foxnews article:

— An ancient law in Alabama bans men from attempting to seduce "a chaste woman by means of temptation, arts, deception, flattery or a promise of marriage."

— Connecticut has a law forbidding any "private sexual behavior between consenting adults." We have to give them credit, though, for at least making this law pretty clear. An old Florida statute states that two people cannot commit "unusual acts" together, but there’s no specification as to what that means!

— An old law in California made it illegal for either partner to reach climax before the other during foreplay.

— Florida once made it illegal to have sexual relations with a porcupine.

— It is illegal for men in Minnesota to have intimate sexual relationships with a live fish.

— If you’re a member of the Nevada legislature, you cannot conduct business, while in session, wearing a ***** costume.

— Women in Dyersburg, Tenn., cannot call a man for a date.

— In Oblong, Ill., it’s illegal to have sex on your wedding day if you’re fishing or hunting.

— Husbands in Willowdale, Ore., can be fined for talking dirty during intercourse, but their wives can say whatever they please.

— An old statute in Florida banned a man from kissing his wife’s breasts.

— It is illegal in Utah to marry your first cousin before the age of 65.

— A man in Ames, Iowa, cannot take more than three swallows of beer while holding his wife in his arms in bed.

— Florida has a statute making it an offense to shower in the nude.

— If you’re unmarried in North Carolina and you and your lover register yourselves as a "Mr. and Mrs." when checking into a motel, then you’re legally considered husband and wife.

— Sex with an animal is perfectly legal for men in Washington state, as long as the animal weighs less than 40 pounds.

— It is illegal for a man to fire his gun in Connersville, Wis., when his lover reaches climax.

— Having sex in a walk-in meat freezer is banned in Newcastle, Wyo.

But there are some sensible laws:

— The Arizona State Supreme Court considered it perfectly all right for women to go topless in public, since breasts weren’t deemed private parts.

— You can streak in Louisiana as long as you can prove to a court beyond a doubt that you had no "lascivious intent."

— Couples in Carlsbad, N.M., can have sex in their parked car during their lunch break, as long as the curtains are drawn.

— Women in New York can go topless in public, unless it is for "business" reasons.
