Just a little tidbit for those who believe the Religious Right's rhetoric of how sodomy is evil and should be regulated by government.
The USUCOJ (United States Uniform Code of Justice) states that any sexual position other than that of missionary male and female is illegal and reason to be courtmartialed. Plus, if you have sex with someone other than your wife and she claims rape...... you should be court martialed and death should be the penalty. Kind of like the cases you are out with the g/f she gets scared as you enter and calls rape....... according to the USUCOJ it is rape and the punishment is death.
We learned that in bootcamp. Is it enforced? No. However, they made sure we knew the rule was there.
It amazes me how many Republicans in office, on these boards, on the airwaves and in life want to hit others with judgements on their private lives and pass "marals" laws.... and yet, they have no idea nor care, that the "69" position , or the lady on top, or the various positions they do is considered illegal also.
It amazes me that sex is even an issue that our government feels it needs to spend money trying to legislate. Money that could be sent to schools, healthcare whatever.
I remember in the 90's Limbaugh stating almost every day that you could not regulate or legislate morals and yet the right is doing so and he is pushhing that agenda.
Amazing. true Conservative Republicans have been hornswaggled by the religious right into believing that their form of less government is less intrusive, and morally correct. Yet, it is still laws that are costing billions legislated against the moral rights of man.
