But the issue is, however, what is done in private. I don't advocate public indecency by anyone, straight or gay. I'm just as offended by extravagant displays of affection between gay people or straight people in public. But when two consenting adults love each other and want to express that love in the privacy of their home, I do not think it is anyone else's business, especially the government. And yes, I fully know that not every person's expression of sexual activity involves "love", but that goes for anyone, straight or gay, and I really don't want to know what is going on in my neighbor's bedroom.

Should law's punishing adultery or fornication be brought back? How about masturbation?

I believe adultery laws remain on the books in many states. There is also an adultery count under the Uniform Code of Military Justice that I have actually seen applied to increase sentences. I wonder about their constitutionality under Lawrence.
