Technically, where I live (North Carolina) it's illegal to have sex in any other position except missionary and even then you have to have the covers over you, the lights off, and blinds/curtains closed. Also oral, anal, masturbation, and anything else not missionary is considered a crime against nature.

So, technically, according to my state's laws, Synthetik and I are practically felons, lmao

Albeit they're *very* old laws (the crimes against nature one is actually derived from an English statute that was passed during the time that Henry VIII was king) that are *still* on the law books, just like it being illegal to sing out of tune. I don't know if you'd *actually* get arrested for it, it's still pretty ridiculous.

Here's a site you can read up on it more, so this doesn't become a text wall, lol:

Fellatio used to be illegal in many places. Women were used be thought as not able to reach orgasm. Many people used to not even know what either were. What is a clitoris People used to think it was in a woman's throat (it made men feel better about thrusting down women's throats). There used to be government projects to figure out if pornography was harmful (they turned out to show that it wasn't and many laws were abolished).

Can you imagine living in the time where this was all true (up until the late 70's)? Where questions like this were common? Issues like this were heated?

I personally am so glad I live in this time period! less

Weird—I thought the "clit in the throat" thing was just made up for the plot of Deep Throat.

Also, while the laws broadly known as "sodomy laws" do still exist in many states as part of their criminal code, all such laws were invalidated by the 2003 Supreme Court decision in Lawrence v. Texas

In Kansas, until 2003, both oral and anal sex, as well as any sexual activity between same sex couples were illegal.

Of course, the one remaining exclusion to the repeal of sodomy laws is the military. less

The problem with these laws is that in order to repeal any of them someone has to go on record sponsoring a bill. Since they're generally not enforced this will be politically a losing situation, since everyone in favor of them will be mobilized, while fewer people will find it important enough to campaign for repeal (since they're not being enforced, and there are still social blocks against admitting to some of these actions). less

It's my understanding that since the 2003 Supreme Court decision, the laws are unenforceable as they have been declared federally unconstitutional. So it doesn't really matter if they are still "on the books" and efforts to repeal or remove would just be a waste of time and money. less
