Sexual Relationships 
Sexual Health 
America can be a strange, strange place. So strange that some of the states can have some ridiculous laws. What's so bad is that some of these laws are still in effect today. Keep in mind that this is not to offend anybody, and is only here to provide giggles and guffaws. Let's take a look at some of the dumbest laws across the states.
Alabama
In Alabama, you're not allowed to wrestle a bear. Exploitataion of a bear may be punishable by fine, and your bear may be confiscated.
Alaska
In Alaska, you're not allowed to get drunk and remain on the premises of a bar (Then...what's the purpose of having a bar?) You can get away with it, if you don't seem drunk.
In 2012, the law was heavily inforced, and violations can result in a heafty fine.
Arizona
You can't feed garbage to pigs without a permit, and the permit requires yearly renewal. You can however feed the pigs with a waste basket.
Arkansas
A pinball machine can't give more than 25 free games to a player who wins consistantly. This law is extempted from places like Chuck E. Cheese because these places can award free toys.
California
A frog that dies during a frog-jumping competition can't be eaten.
Colarado
You need a permit to be allowed to modify the weather. This, while it may seem silly, it is cually possible to modify the weather.
In some select states, you can practice this legally without a permit. The burning of chemicals, like sulfur and silver iodide can actually cause changes to the weather, such as the formation of clouds.
These restictions were put into place to prevent serious chages to the atmosphere.
Connecticut
It is illegal to let somebody copy your acedemic work. It is serious business, and can result with more than time in detention. The punishment isn't specified, however.
Flordia
You are not allowed to shatter more than three dishes a day, or chip the edges of more than four cups and/or saucers. So if you're clumsy, you better stay away from here.
Georgia
Those engaging in llama-related activites are not covered by health insurance. Unless you're a 'llama prfessional", you are not covered.
Hawaii
All billboards are banned in Hawaii, with just 18 exceptions.
Idaho
Cannibalism is a serious crime in Idaho, with punishments of up to 14 years in prision. The only exception being that if you were caught in a life-or-death situation.
The law was repealed in 1990, however so it wouldn't look like Idaho was promoting the consumption of humans.
Illinois
You cannot own or purchase over 600 dollars worth of salamanders (which is about 75 salamanders), when in relality, you cannot own 600 dollar worth of aquatic life of any kind.
Indiana
It is illegal for a man to be sexually aroused in public. If it is undetectable, then you may be able to get away with it. This law was supposedly outlawed in 1997.
Iowa
Any person who tries to pass margarine off as real butter is guilty of a misdemeanor.
Kansas
Every legislator, public officer, and lawyer must take an oath stating that they have not fought a duel with deadly weapons, the deadly weapons being things like spears.
The law was passed in 1847 to turn men away from doing such barbaric things.
Lousiana
Peeing in public water supply may be punishable by 20 years in prison.
Maine
After January 14th, a fine can be given if you still have your Christmas decorations up.
Maryland
A person who sells non-latex condoms by means of a vending machine can be issued a fine of up to $1,000.
Massachusetts
In Gillete or Fenway park, if you sing half, less than half, or in separate parts of the National Anthem, it is punishable by a fine of $100. The smae goes for dancing, if any.
Michigan
Adultry is a felony punishable by either 4 years in prision or a $5,000 fine. This has been in effect since 1931 by a statue on the books. Michigan does not enforce this law heavily since 2012.
Minnesota
Any game or event that attempts to capture a greased or oiled pig is illegal. The same counts for turkey scambles, and can be punishable by a fine. Maybe the legitlators were high when they came up with this law.
Mississippi
Swearing in front of two or more persons in public may land you in the county jail for a month, or you can pay a fine to the county swear jar for no more than $100.
This law seems to vilate the First Amendment, it was probably thought of as a way to protect the public.
Missouri
Guiding a sheep to the railroad tracks with intentions to injure the train, not the sheep, can result in a hefty fine of $50,000 and 5 years in prision.
All locomotives were created equal according to Missouri.
Nebraska
Any person with an STD cannot marry. Due to nearly 8,000 Nebraskans inflicted with gononrhea and chlamydia, it is nearly impossible to enforce. Also, many cases go unreported.
Nevada
Although prostitution won't get you arrested here like most states, but determining shoe size with an x-ray can. The fluoroscope, a device that is used to determine shoe size with x-rays is outlawed here, and anyone caught using one will be guilty of misdemeanor.
This law is enforced to stop people from being exposed to harmful radiation.
New Hampshire
You cannot collect seaweed at night as of 1973. If you do, it is a "violation" with an unspecified punishment.
New Mexico
Nudity is allowed, provided that male genitals are covered. Which means, you can go out naked, but not really naked, because you must be wearing a cloth or something. As for females, your nipples must be covered.
New York
It is unlawful for three or more people to be wearing masks at a public demonstration. This law excludes masquerade parties and similar events.
North Carolina
Bingo games cannot last more than 5 hours. Nobody really knows why this law was put into place. Guess it was to stop people from cashing in big.
North Dakota
You can't fall asleep with your shoes on in public. The punishment is unspecified.
Ohio
You can't fish for whales on Sunday. Where do you find whales in Ohio? Who knows?
Oklahoma
It is illegal for a female to do her own hair without a license by the state. I'm guessing that this law is not heavily enforced.
Oregon
Leaving a container of urine or fecal matter on the side of the road is Class A a misdemeanor. Why does this need to be a law? Isn't it common sense?
Pennsylvania
It is illegal to sleep on top of a refrigerator outdoors. You may face a small fine. Again, who does that?
Rhode Island
Biting off someone' limb may land you 20 years behind bars, only if you maimed the victim on purpose.
South Carolina
Males over 16 can't suduce a woman by falsely promising to marry her. If he is convicted, he will be charged with misdemeanor, and face no more than one year behind bars.
This law has exceptions though. If the women is already married, or if she sleeps around, the male won't be charged with misdemeanor. If the woman takes the man to court, and the court can't correlate her testimony, the man will also walk free. No law exists with the gender roles reversed.
South Dakota
Farmers are allowed to set off fireworks to protect their sunflowers. Crows and other birds like to wreck their crops and this is a way of combating it. As long as you're not in a 600 foot radius of a school or other building, it is perfectly legal.
Tennessee
You're not allowed to hold hands with your partner while in school. Not sure if many will follow this rule, though.
Texas
You must acknowlege God if you wish to run for office. In other words, no athiests allowed.
Utah
You cannot hurl a missle at a bus or bus terminal, except "elected or appointed peace officers" or "commercial security personnel." Anyone outside those positions is convicted of a third-degree felony.
Vermont
A law was passed the prohibits the use of clotheslines. The same bill also prevents the banning of solar collectors, listing both items as "energy devices based on renewable resources,
Virginia
Not only is it illegal to have sex with the lights on, one may not have sex in any position other than missionary. It is classified as Class 4 misdemeanor.
Not sure why Virginia cares what position you have sex in, though.
Washington
All doors must open outwardly. Failure to do so and you may face a misdemeanor charge. Nobody is sure why this is a law, though.
Wisconsin
At one time, it was illegal to own margerine. But butter, it was totally fine.
Wyoming
In Wyoming, you can't "cut, sever, detach, or mutilate" more than one-half of a sheep's ear. Violations are felony offenses, punishable by up to five years in prison.
But if you want to cut off more than a half of a sheep's ear, go right ahead.

12 23"Missouri
Guiding a sheep to the railroad tracks with intentions to injure the train, not the sheep, can result in a hefty fine of $50,000 and 5 years in prision.
All locomotives were created equal according to Missouri." and "Minnesota
Any game or event that attempts to capture a greased or oiled pig is illegal. The same counts for turkey scambles, and can be punishable by a fine. Maybe the legitlators were high when they came up with this law." are good laws. animal abuse is not cool!
Lol :2
I'm glad you enjoyed. :3
How is this funny? Animal abuse is stupid, pointless, cruel and is uncool!
I obviously love animals I was just stating the law of the state. 😕 I wrote several my takes on the abuse of animals. Sorry I didn't know you weren't being funny. 😐
My profile picture is a fox, for god's sake. 😕
The point is who would do any of these things anyway? Any human with a small amount of decency wouldn't think of doing those things to animals. Also, I was going off of the dumb law site so I'm sorry of this offended you or anything. 😛
Actually that law in Kansas is there for a reason, we used to be a very brutal place back in the wild west and we hung people by a noose up until the mid 60s the last one being a double hanging in 1965 Capital Punishment. And now we have constitutional carry which means we may carry firearms (pistols) without a license anywhere we want as long as there is no anti weapon sign on the building, and we have new knife laws which allow us to carry any kind of dirk, dagger or knife of any length without a license. So probably a good idea that is in place.
Despite the very lenient weapon laws we have very few knife and gunfights around here so it is unlikely the law would ever affect many people, though there is the odd case so it's good it's still there.
O any quiet a few people around here also own odd weapons like bo staffs, filipino rattin sticks (fighting sticks) and swords lol due to quite a few martial arts dojo's around here at least in my town that is.
I know, I read about that and was going to edit it into this take but I can't.
@RainbowFanGirl It's all good, at least you know, and I while I did read all of the laws and they may seems strange to those that do not live in the states or areas were they are. To the people who actually live there they probably don't seem to strange, you have to remember each state in America is like a small country in of itself, each one has it's own culture, foods, traditions and weird odds and ins so to them they probably know the laws are there for a reason.
For instance I girl I know moved to Kansas from New Jersey about 3-4 years ago and we were talking about our respective states about a week ago and she said people in Jersey literally think that all of Kansas looks like this
So you can see how differences and how each state thinks the other is weird or has weird stuff.

I'm all for that law in Texas.
If you're a Republican and you believe in the Constitution, then I find your comment to be hilariously hypocritical.
I do believe in the constitution and I'm not a democrip or a rebloodlican. I'm 100% a non sheeple independent. And if you think there is a dimes worth of difference between the redbloodicans and dimocrips you are 100% asleep at the Koolaid wheel headed right to the slaughterhouse along with the rest of the indoctrinated sheeple.
