Georgia removed from list of states which currently outlaw fornication

Georgia was removed from the list of states which currently have laws against fornication. This is because the legislation which was cited (O.C.G.A 16-6-8) specifically outlaws public indecency and is not explicitly related to fornication which has to do with the marital status of the individuals involved in the acts. The code itself does not use the word 'fornication', nor does it mention marital status anywhere within the statute. 73.7.38.69 (talk) 13:11, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It would appear that the mention of code section 16-6-8 was a typo and was always intended to be O.C.G.A. 16-6-18, which was in fact titled Fornication. Fabrickator (talk) 19:47, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
