Georgia code section 16-6-2 provides a 1 to 20 year mandatory sentence for any adults consenting to "any sexual act involving the sex organs of one person and the mouth or anus of another". Married couples are not excluded from this law.

Most states have repealed the law but it is still illegal in the following :

Florida
Idaho
Louisiana
Michigan
Alabama
Mississippi
North Carolina
South Carolina
Utah
Virginia
Puerto Rico

In an interesting side-note - the actual definition of sodomy, which is the term you would be tried under, is anything considered "unnatural or deviate sexual intercourse". This can be taken as meaning oral sex, so anywhere that states sodomy is illegal is also saying that you cannot partake in oral sex!!!
