What if adultery and AM are just symptoms of society trying too hard to define strict sexual roles?

Also, it is far easier to show harm from allowing adultery compared to what was covered under Lawrence v.

Adultery is not really a crime anymore (most criminal adultery statues are now unconstitutional), but this would be considered adultery (whether you did it on AM or elsewhere) Certainly not their main use case, but there is a "morally blameless" portion of their user base.

Adultery and all its negatives are going to continue to exist regardless of whether or not AM exists.

Adultery is also criminal in many parts of the world, including the US.

Adultery is not, in fact, legal in significant portions of the US.
