The law in N.C. prohibiting cohabitation was enacted in 1805. It’s hard to imagine that such an outdated law would still be valid some 200 years later. N.C. House bill 132 was recently filed to repeal this statute. Some say by abolishing this law you are basically support adultery.

Last I heard cohabitation by unmarried couples is also still illegal in Florida, Michigan, Mississippi, North Dakota, Virginia and West Virginia.

    How can allowing cohabitation be supporting adultery?? You dont have to share the same house or apartment to have sex… you can have sex in a car… will we pass a law to make it illegal for people of the opposite sex to ride in the same vehicle together?? Its 2007, move on, if cohabitaion was the evil that caused adultery then we need to move to segregated workplaces… I mean I might be tempted to take a co-worker into the copier room or the bathroom… government needs to get out of my house…
