Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: As recently as 2003, Justice Scalia linked consensual sodomy and same sex marriage in his dissenting opinion in Lawrence v. Texas (123 S.Ct. 2472 at 2497). There is an inherent logic in linking these two issues in terms of state action – they each are key goals in the fight for the rights of lesbians, gay, and bisexuals. Yet, as this paper demonstrates, it appears from the evidence of state action on these two issues that any apparent direct nexus between these two elements is questionable. In fact, state action on each of these two issues occurs in response to two very different configurations of social, political, and religious forces. This lack of a direct nexus helps to explain the apparent contradiction represented by the fact that 27 states in the period between 1961 and 2001 eliminated their restriction on private, consensual sodomy amongst adults while contemporaneously introducing and maintaining a proscription on same sex marriage
