This lawsuit isn't about whether you and your wife can do this act. The court already decided that the states can legislate (largely unenforceable) laws to make it illegal.

The lawsuit is whether the states can define a law to prohibit homosexual relations.

"Thirteen states ban consensual oral and anal sex, regardless of sexual orientation; Arkansas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri and Texas ban homosexual sodomy only. California repealed its ban in 1975."

The issues is what right does the state have telling ANYONE what the can or can not do in their bedroom as long as they are adults and not directly harming others.

Just because a law is not unenforceable now does not make it unenforceable in the future. What if the TIA office decides they need to have cams in every home to stop those that commit 'acts of terror'
