We all should make sure we are educated on the laws of our country. That being said, where can one go to learn about sexual law in the U.S.? You can't learn this stuff in school or in church. So here's some info, some of it may be outdated, but I thought everyone should be privy to it, you know...just in case it comes up. (snark)

Crazy.

-If you're in Idaho, you're not allowed to engage in any type of public display of affection for more than 18 minutes.   so 19 minutes is too long?

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

So, how do porcupines makes love?  Very carefully.

You know, we don't make laws most of the time until someone has actually done a thing that others find so repugnant that we make a law against ever doing it again.

*sigh* Must be, or at least once were, some, uhhh, very interesting inhabitants of Florida.

Ya know, though, I don't even want to know. Think I'll vacation in Cali or Maine and forget the "third coast." >

That does tend to be true that laws are not written, for the most part, until a need arises.

Now, we just have Fark (google it, it lists great news stories, many from Florida, must be something in the water down there.)

Why was I not surprised that Tekla was the first to respond to this post   

And, I don't think I need to know how porcupines have sex

Ahh, but now you do.  And you will never forget it.

Are porcupines the mammals whose males have uh, forked penises? I have this half-memory of having learned that in a biology class once. Or was that opossums or armadillos or some other creature? Hmmmm.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porcupines

"Porcupine quills are as sharp as needles, detach very easily, and will remain embedded in an attacker. Unlike needles, however, the quills of New World porcupines have microscopic, backwards-facing barbs on the tip that catch on the skin making them difficult and painful to extract, though they must be removed. Quills are about 75 millimetres (3.0 in) long and 2 millimetres (0.079 in) wide. If a quill becomes lodged in the tissues of a would-be attacker, the barbs act to pull the quill further into the tissues with the normal muscle movements of the attacker, moving up to several millimeters in a day. Predators have been known to die as a result of quill penetration and infection. Quills are still capable of penetrating animals and humans even after death. [1] Quills are released by contact with them or they may drop out when the porcupine shakes them, they are not sprayed out."

No info about their, um... sex organs... 

Z, sweetheart, I wasn't asking about quills! But thanks anyhow.

OK, I did check Google and found this

Quote5) Kangaroo - We've talked about interesting penis shapes before with the corkscrew penis of certain ducks. Pigs also have a corkscrew penis, but why go for a single freakshow when you can double your pleasure instead. Like many marsupials, the kangaroo has a bifurcated (or forked) penis, and scrotum and testes are in the front. This matches the dual vaginas/uteri of female marsupials. Stranger still, the echidna penis (pictured) has 4 heads!

Must have been opossums and there are others as well!! Many others. Sheesh!! This girl learned more than she ever wanted to know!!

Oh, and you two talk about me.  Yeesh.  But I'm changing plans I guess.  I'm going to have to take the porcupine to St. Paul, and the fish to St. Pete.

I know, but I didn't find anything about forked penises in wikipedia search. I figured info about quills was better than nothing

Oy, you had to ask  > 

Z

Yeah, right? Some of that stuff is simply just too nightmarish to even recall now. Like the Argonaut! That is nightmarish like one that is sentient? OMG!!

N~

Its going to be hard to match the nightmare of the last 8 years of the Bush Administration.

OK, that's the LAST thing I needed to think about, Kat. I'm off to bed and hopefully to dream of rotting leaves or something sane instead of Bush and the Argonaut!

Most snakes and other reptiles have hemi-peni (two peni).  The female of the species, however, only have one vagina.

I have pondered that for lo these many years, but I have not come up with a reason why Goddess or natural selection came up with *that* idea...

I'm not going to get involved with the discussion about forked penises or porcupines, as I'm feeling both bored and adventurous today.

I would like to mention a law that used to be in effect, perhaps still is, in Oklahoma. The law specified as a legal wedding any two people who registered at a hotel/motel as man and wife. I know that this was in place during the '60's. A hooker would meet a man and go to the local motel, and in the morning, if the man signed in as "Mr. and Mrs." the man would find himself being sued for divorce as well as half of everything that he had; community property being part of divorce law in Oklahoma. Apparently, in the 50's and 60's, it was common for people to sign in as "Mr. and Mrs." a practice which is no longer required.

I'm unaware of anything in Oklahoma law pertaining to porcupines. I think that a person would probably be safe in using a motel room. Florida may be kinda risky.....
