An erection that shows through a man's clothing is illegal in: Arizona, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Washington D.C. and Wisconsin.


In Harrisburg, Pennsylvania it is against the law to have sex with a truck driver in a tollbooth. (There's every woman's fantasy gone down the drain).

In Nevada it is illegal to have sex without a condom.

In Willowdale, Oregon it is against the law for a husband to talk to dirty in his wife's ear during sex.

In Clinton, Oklahoma it is illegal to masturbate while watching two people have sex in a car.

In Washington State there is a law against having sex with a virgin under any circumstances (including the wedding night!).

In Newcastle, Wyoming it is illegal to have sex in a butcher shop's meat freezer.

In Washington D.C. there is a law against having sex in any position other than face to face.

And if you thought those were ridiculous......

In Kingsville, Texas there is a law against two pigs having sex on Kingsville airport property.

In Fairbanks, Alaska it is illegal for moose to have sex on the city sidewalks.

Lastly, even liberated California proves to be not quite so liberal for the animals...In Ventura County cats and dogs may not have sex without a permit.

Yes, all the states have weird old laws that date back to the 1700's or whenever. None of them are really observed. I'm sure it's pretty much the same everywhere.

Many of these laws may still serve a purpose, but when copied and pasted out of context they sound very strange.

Your anti-Amercan posts are growing really tiresome.

YOU are tiresome.

The one from Nevada must be a bit newer, though... I wonder how people are supposed to get children there?

The law dates from 1988, but only applies to prostitutes and their clients.

i dont find this anti american, just funny, i think americans reading this would have to be pretty paranoid to take offence to it.... there's bizarre laws in all countries... i do know in the uk it is still against the law not to attend church on a sunday... not quite as good as the ones stated by uzless, but the same in the way it is an outdated law that still stands

There are still by-laws in Wiltshire & Berkshire that make it illegal to walk along a canal's tow-path unless you are leading a horse.

In New England, fire engines are not allowed to exceed 25mph - strangely, this includes the journey to the fire...

I can't find the reference now but there's a bye law in one town that allows you to shoot a Welshman with a bow and arrow in the churchyard after dark.

A bloody uprising by Welsh forces had centered on Chester. After putting down the rebellion, Henry IV took severe precautions to ensure that there would be no repetition. On 4th September 1403, he wrote to the Mayor, Sheriffs and Aldermen of the City of Chester, commanding that "All manner of Welsh persons or Welsh sympathies should be expelled from the City; that no Welshman should enter the City before sunrise or tarry in it after sunset, under pain of decapitation".
The King specified that these new laws should be "proclaimed publicly in your bailiwick for the informing of the people".

This still stands, apparently...

These are obviously quite reasonable. What woman wants to have sex with a man who's whispering in his wife's ear at the same time? And wouldn't you rather do it in the truck itself? Does the Nevada law specify where the condom must be or is your back pocket or big toe ok? Are there many virgins in Washington State who have to worry about this? Meat freezer -- just not a pretty picture.

I'm glad the UK has "normal" laws and not weird stuff like arresting someone for inappropriate behavior with a bicycle.

I don't buy the Ventura, CA one. I can find no reference to the law so I can look it up.
