I read the OP title to be "Which of these Top 10 sex laws are unconstitutional?" Is that a bad thing, or just depressing?

I think 9 passes rational basis review. Don't want to angry up the horses and have them getting their horse rape on.

The best I can think of is that someone could believe they are the incarnation of Satan, and because the court couldn't decide that they weren't Satan they could possibly have standing.

Actually I'd think #4 would be equal protection, #5 -- not so sure, and #6 don't think there's any dormant commerce clause issue (if it was then states couldn't ban selling fireworks either).
