Hmmmm....

Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

Translation: love slaves are not allowed (Amendment XIII)

The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.

Translation: You can have sex while you vote (Amendment XIX <shouldn't they have called that one Amendment XXX?>)

the manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors within, the importation thereof into, or the exportation thereof from the United States and all territory subject to the jurisdiction thereof for beverage purposes is hereby prohibited.

Translation: For awhile you couldn't get drunk (Amendment XVIII).

So to compensate for not allowing love slaves or drinking, they at least let us have sex while we vote.

I love learning about the law! Professor, do you have any other materials we can study???
