Answer to Question 1

Answer: There are some laws that still exist in some jurisdictions that prohibit fornication, the sexual conduct between two unmarried persons, and adultery, a married person who has sexual intercourse with another, not his/her spouse. Laws against homosexuality have been ruled unconstitutional. Explain the evolution of these laws in the face of changing social values. Crimes against nature may include buggery, bestiality, and even crimes where sexual intercourse occurs in something other than traditional positions by the man and woman. Bigamy is the crime of marrying one person while still married to another. Polygamy is marrying or cohabiting with more than one spouse at a time in the purported exercise of a plural marriage. Incest is the unlawful sexual intercourse with a blood relative, usually a brother, sister, mother or father. Some statutes expand the offense to include conduct between stepparents and stepchildren, half-siblings, grandparents and grandchildren, and other degrees of relationships.
