Don't fall into the trap of referring to it as "consenting adults in private".
It means absolutely nothing.
We are talking adults with adults, adults with minors (in certain legal circumstances), and minors with minors.
Adults are still prohibited from engaging in any number of consensual acts (sex or otherwise) in the privacy of the home.
The Supreme Court was real clear in making that point that it was only ending all laws against sodomy. That it was consensual or in private is completely irrelevant to the argument.

We are talking adults with adults - none of my business.
adults with minors - since i was having sex with a 27yr. old male when i was 17yrs old...i can't really comment on this being negative without being a hypocrite.
Adults are still prohibited from engaging in any number of consensual acts (sex or otherwise) in the privacy of the home. - which are silly, non-sensical, and rarely enforced. And there are those out there becoming increasing annoyed by it, and getting ready to put up a big fight over it.
The Supreme Court was real clear in making that point that it was only ending all laws against sodomy. - was it the only issue infront of them? Or were there a host of others, and they just chose sodomy from them?
