Adultery law in California

There is currently no information on the law in California although I have previously seen in an article (possibly adultery) about there being no adultery law there as of 1996. There is the potential for curiosity over the law in that state considering the 1963 novel The Graduate by Charles Webb, adapted into a film in 1967, is set in California and contains a well known example of adultery in popular culture and a threat to prosecute the unmarried partner. In December 2014 User:John Paul Parks added a note in the article about the film saying "In 1967, the year in which the film was made, adultery was a criminal offense in California. See Cal. Penal Code §§ 269a, 269b (repealed 1975)". The note has since been removed and I cannot imagine any such reference appearing in that article soon considering trivia sections are discouraged on Wikipedia. Such a reference might be better mentioned in this article considering it is about a real life adultery law. I have so far not been able to find any reference to a former adultery law in California but most web sources I found claims that the state has no adultery law as it has no-fault divorce which was introduced there in 1970.

No link of adultery to incest?

When adultery is normalized it becomes a lot harder to figure out who you're actually related to. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.96.89.104 (talk) 14:24, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Adultery in the United States

This article says that adultery is illegal in 17 U.S. states but then doesn't actually say what those 17 states are. Doesn't that seem like an oversight? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Attack.Iguana (talk • contribs) 18:02, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

World Map?

The page would benefit from a world map showing the status of adultery laws in each country. DenverCoder9 (talk) 22:40, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
