Adultery laws are not gone. It is a matter of equity. Marriage is a contract beween you, your spouse, and the State.

Are you sure? Breach of contract is not a crime. How can the state violate my fundamental right of humanity to do whatever I want behind closed doors by criminalizing adultery?

Justice O'Connor may think she can keep her finger in this dike, but remember dozens of state supreme courts are going to start running with this rationale and rulings are state constitutions are not reviewable in the SCOTUS.

Which is a problem. It should be between the man on one hand, the woman on the other. Instead it is between the man and woman on the one hand and the state on the other.
