Laws and ordinances are enacted around the United States for many reasons, most often as a means of ensuring the safety of the general public. While laws pertaining to personal safety are very understandable, others leave us scratching our heads. While we have to abide by these laws, unless we wish to deal with the authorities, there are certain times when laws are blatantly broken and most all of those relate directly to sexual practices. Each state in the United States has at least a few laws that are sexual in nature, and they have been in existence for a very long time. Today, the public is generally amused to read these laws. Here are state laws found in the United States that are not only hilarious, but regularly broken by the residents of each state.

Only Vanilla Sex in Georgia

If you reside in the state of Georgia and have ever had a sexual encounter where you have been spanked, you have broken the law. Georgia has very clearly outlawed all forms of what they call “sadomasochistic abuse”. What is sadomasochistic abuse? In Georgia that can mean anything from light bondage to full out throttling. This means that any of us who enjoy any form of BDSM are lawbreakers if we do it while in the state. Residents are not allowed to spank, whip, paddle, flog, humiliate, use handcuffs or other restraints, wear masks, wear “bizarre” costumes, or role play in any form of dominance or submission. It is a safe bet that at least a decent percentage of the Georgia population is breaking this law unknowingly.

Keep it in Your Pants in Michigan

Michigan is known for many things, cherries, automobiles, ice fishing, and apparently the need to be a prude. In this fine state, it is illegal for a man to “seduce or corrupt an unmarried woman”. This law offers no language pertaining to the age or willingness of the female, and applies to any woman who is not married. Basically, if you are a healthy man in Michigan who wishes to pursue a woman, you could really be pursuing a felony charge. This law leaves us quite confused. Does it mean that the women are all supposed to seduce the men? Or should we interpret that the single men should only try to hit on married women? Either way, it makes very little sense.

Pennsylvania Sucks All the Fun Out of Sex

In the great state of Pennsylvania, if you preform or receive anal or oral sex, you are breaking the law. Having nothing to do with sexual orientation, the law equally applies to couplings of two men, two women, or man and woman. Throughout the state, if you participate in anal or oral sex, even consensually, you are committing “buggery” which is their very antiquated broad term for both sexual acts. According to the law, buggery can earn a citizen a possible 10 years of hard labour as well as a hefty fine. We are positive that this law is broken often and without remorse.

Mississippi Requires Faithful Sex

If you live in the state of Mississippi and have a sexual experience outside of your marriage, adultery for example, you are breaking the law. This also applies to couples who choose to bring another person into their bedroom consensually, or swingers who trade spouses. In addition, if you have premarital sex, sex before marriage, you are breaking the law. Needless to say, the bible belt has allowed faith to dictate ordinances in Mississippi in regards to sex.

Only Missionary Sex in Kansas

If you reside in Kansas, you are by law required to only have sex in the missionary position. This includes all forms of sex, from oral to sodomy. Straight missionary is all that is allowed. We are sure that most residents are not even aware that this law exists, and even if they do, who cares?
