The list of weird sex laws in USA

Hmmm... This might have been here before. At least some other version of a list like this has certainly been up.

Arizona: "You may not have more than two dildos in the same house."
-Why is it specifically two? Why not just one? Why not three or five? If this is for some reason such as there possibly being mother and her daughter who might both own a dildo, then what about families with more than one daughter?

Florida: Married couples (as well as singles) cannot engage in open "lewdness or lascivious behavior"
-This is Florida we are talking about, if this law was enforced 98% of the people there would be in jail right now. And that is the minimum estimation.

Indiana: It is illegal for a man to be sexually aroused in public.

Iowa: Kisses may last for no more than five minutes.

Kansas: Illegal "sodomy" includes oral sex, but anal penetration with a finger is allowed under specified circumstances.
-Much like the case with Arizona this raises questions as to why is the line drawn there specifically. (Also I'd like to hear what those "specified circumstances" are.)

Texas: It's illegal to own more than six dildos.
-Well at least they aren't as strict as Arizona. Though, yet again, I would like to know why is it specifically six dildos per person which is the acceptable limit...

Aside from these being funny it really does remind me yet again how USA is so divided between those parts of USA that dominate the porn market and the oversexualization and exploitation that is so blatant in much of media and advertising from USA while still being so prude over things that seem tame by European standards. (And the fact that the places in USA that dominate the pornography production and consumption are also the most prudish places at least when it comes to the public image the locals want to have.)
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

I have to ask... how, exactly, the hell do they expect to enforce the dildo laws?

Eh, I'll bet most of those laws are only still on the books because the officials can't be arsed to take them off.  That and they can be used against 'deviants' when it's handy if you come upon an asshole cop/judge/whatever.

That is the case for about 95% of all the odd sex laws out there. They're only on the books because nobody specifically challenged them. The authorities just realized it was stupid to enforce them.

Is some states it is unlawful to sandpaper a wildcat's ass while preparing for sex with the animal.  Some unpleasant incidents had occurred before these laws were passed.

Washington: If you give a sex worker a ride to work, your car can be confiscated.

lol wut? I would really like to see how the original law was worded, because this raises a ton of questions. Whose "work" is it talking about? Are you bringing the sex worker to your place of work, or are you bringing them to their place of work? If it is the latter, then what if that sex worker performs their services in their home? Would it then be illegal to give a sex worker a ride home? What if the sex worker is also your coworker at a job unrelated to sex work? What if you work in a brothel together? What if you and your coworker carpool, but your coworker also moonlights as a sex worker on the side? What if you are unaware of their "secret life?"

This law is ridiculous. Really, they should be praising the sex worker and their customer for helping the environment. At least they can ride in the HOV lane.

Speculation, but it sounds like someone tried to pass a law to make it easier to prosecute soliciting (something about having a prostitute in your car or something), and this was an unintended side-effect of unclear wording.

The kindest interpretation I can think of it that you're allowed to keep a spare, in case you misplace one.

Making necrophilia illegal doesn't really make sense, since it would be a victimless crime.
