Legalese: "carnal copulation" is the insertion of the p*n*s into any bodily orifice. "unnatural" carnal copulation is an*l or oral as opposed to v*g*n*l. Note that both oral and an*l sex between a consenting man and a woman are a crime under the section as written. IOW, it is a currently a crime against this section for a wife to give her husband a BJ if either party is in the Military.. Without knowing what other sections still exist or have been added to replace the repealed section, it is impossible to say what acts have actually been decriminalised by the amendments. -- Stuart On 9 Dec 2011 at 10:03, Arthur Fuller wrote: > I'm quoting from today's newspaper... > > "Recently passed U.S. Senate legislation would make sodomy and sex with > animals legal under military law, ending long-standing prohibitions and > triggering cries of perversion from conservative groups. > "The bill would repeal Article 125 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice, > which states that any person who engages in "unnatural carnal copulation > with another person of the same or opposite sex or with an animal is guilty > of sodomy." > > This most definitely gives me, at least, several occasions to pause: > > a) implication that liberals had no objections?
