If a man sleeps with anothers wife with her consent he can be charged legally.So why not a woman doing it too?

Whoa, cowboy...just a point of order here, to keep someone out of trouble.  The whole "over 16" thing may be true in some states, but nobody here should think it applies in California.\n\nBecause it ain't so.\n\nIn California, you must be 18 and older to legally have sex.  Does not matter who consents to what.  End of story.\n\nMy apologies to the asker...this is not an answer to the original question and I probably should be made to forfeit two points just for doing it.\n\nOkay, let's look at the question:\n\nHmph.  Does not say what I thought it did.  In court, this question would be responded to with this; "Objection.  Assumes facts not in evidence."\n\nIn other words, the asker of this question is stating as fact that a man who sleeps with another man's wife (with her consent) can be charged (with what we do not know, but we'll assume a crime).  Therein lies the "fact" which is not in evidence yet.\n\nIn California, it never will be.  Two consenting adults can do doggone near anything they want to in California...the more I think of it, when it comes to sex they *can* do anything they want, as long as both (all?) agree.  \n\nSo the question, at least in my state, is flawed.  It states that a man can be charged for humping someone else's wife and that isn't true.  Therefore, a woman wouldn't be charged with humping someone's husband for the same reason...it's legal in this state.\n\nEven further, now that I think about it:\n\nIf we're talking about legally married spouses, then it's probable that someone could legally have sex at an age less than 18 in this state.  You can't legally marry until you are 18 OR with...umm...something... parental permission or emancipation, I think.  If you're emancipated, you can have sex as far as I know.  Not sure about the parental permission for marriage equalling the right to hump.\n\nBizarre question.\n\nEven more bizzare answer.

Anything is permissible as long as it is between a husband and wife except for anal sex. As long as it remains between the two, anything else is go.

Ok..then let me return to you this question:what do you call a man who sleeps with a lot of women?Why is it ok for men to do this,but women should stick to one man?That is so hypocrite!

If both participants are adults, it's actually legal in most states.  Marriage is out of the question, but the act itself isn't illegal.

your doin it because you can  and you want someone to give you the attention your husband isn't giving you but having sex with them if find that very wrong why don't you have one of them buy you a vibrator.so what im sayin is if you really loved your husband you wouldn't be sleepin with other men. commitment is what you lack that or you have no self control.

Considering the man: to relax, get rid of his excess power\n\nConsidering the wife or girl friend: she would not have sex anyway shortly after a fight, not feeling comfortable in such a situation\n\nSo what else should the man do?\n\nIt would be much easier, if the wife would be able to put the fight out of her mind - and to have sex as a kind of new start.\n\nI'm celeb, so I don't have the problem - and I have never paid for sex.

y is he being charged when she lied about her age, he thought he was doing nothing wrong, \n\ni think there should be a better law in place because it makes the man to be bad all the time ( i am a woman) when she lied about her age, what was he supposed to do ask for id

Whatever.... I have NO respect for a man that commits adultery. Maybe he didn't rape her and like YOU said we were not there, but the truth is he DID have SEX with her and that was wrong. Why is it that because he's such a fantastic basketball player seem to make it all right to do and behave that way. Heck Magic Johnson was the same way. Personally I don't care, what he does does not affect my sleep in the least. Now him on the other hand I bet he struggles just a little bit, not much I'm sure because he thinks he's so above it all, but Oh well I don't have to live with him. And I'm glad about that.

there is no law.  If you have it you don't have to tell anyone not even your boss.  But if you have it and know it and have unprotected sex with someone you can be tried for murder/attempted murder because you know you can give it to them

There isn't any law for this kind of an arrangement... it's a matter which is decided by ones moral code.  "To each his own" is what's ringing true in my mind, but I'm guessing you won't quite agree with me on this point.  Am I correct?\n\n{}{}{} r u randy? {}{}{}\n.

In my logic NO he shouldn't have, but by the screwed up justice system sadly yes.  I know if I was molested or raped and my husband or dad found out they'd kill the other person.  It would be premeditated - that would be the courts case.  Now if the victim did it in self-defense it might be a different outcome.

Nothing wrong with that, Dude!  It's what makes us married guys stay with our wives.  THe better your imagination, the longer you will find your wife attractive :-)  Also can make the "session" over more quickly - allowing you to get more sleep.

Yes, there is a possibility of a husband being charged for Raping a wife -- and that is when the husband forces the wife, and she definitely says "NO!" -- most often seen in cases of Domestic Violence.

He was having Sex with another woman.Well he may be wrong morally as well as ethically as he is a married man and is betraying his wife.But legally he was doing nothing wrong so the only thing that can happen to him is that his wife can file a divorce petition

Good point, but first of all, we need to deal with adultery separately to murder and molestation.  The latter two are most definitely crimes, and society regards them as seriously now as it ever has done.  However, adultery is not in the same class, indeed, some, including me, would not call it a crime (I am not saying that makes it right or acceptable, just stating a fact).\n\nI note that you call adultery 'theft', but is it?  Theft usually involves the taking of anothers possession without their permission.  However, in adultery, one is not dealing in possessions, but people, and further more, people with free will - ie: one cannot steal another's partner because that partner's agreement is necessary.  It is not like stealing an object which has no say in the matter, adultery is a conscious and willing act on behalf of both parties involved.  Also, have you ever thought that, in some cases, adultery may be what keeps a marriage together?  Consider the younger wife of a much older husband - he has lost interest in the physical side of things and his wife is extremely frustrated.  It starts to cause problems in other aspects of their relationship, as she blames him for her frustration, and he feels guilty about it.  So, she takes a secret lover, her physical needs are satisfied, she no longer holds her husband responsible for her frustrations, and he thinking she is content with the way things are no longer feels guilty.  They still love each other in other ways.  Of course, the danger is in the secret lover becoming more important than the husband.  Just a thought.  \n\nOne also needs to consider motive.  Too complex an area to discuss here I feel.\n\nOverall though I do feel that as far as proper crimes are concerned, in the UK, we are not tough enough on criminals, and for a long time  the human rights of criminals have been considered at the expense of those of their victims.  Only recently have our politicians woken up to this fact, something society has been aware of, and complaining about for years!  How on earth people so out of touch with society can presume to govern us is beyond me!  But that is another topic entirely.

that ones easy...BECAUSE THEY'RE MARRIED!! Why would you want to go and ruin someones life then take responsibility for it? What if her husband is so in love with her and shes all hes got? If this other guy took responsibility on having an affair with this girl...lets just say her husband might be in jail for a really long time.

Yes this could be refuted by a good attorney but in the meantime back at the ranch someone is sitting in jail waiting for the trial just because sex was involved and that will be the deciding factor in the case as to legal or not legal.  Sex is sex to the law, I don't think prostitution should be illegal because its a woman's prerogative as what she wants to do with her body.  For every law out there there is a way to get around it until it becomes case law which means that someone refuted the previous law and either beat it or didn't beat it and they made a new law because of it.  It would only work until the end of the trial and then they would be re-writing a new law because of it.  Oh well, it is aways worth trying though.
