Ugandan law struck down for being sexist

Here's some good news: The adultery law in Uganda has been struck down by the Constitutional Court because it was sexist.

The law made it an offence for a married woman to have an affair, but it allowed a cheating husband to have an affair with an unmarried woman.

The attorney general said the move may encourage immorality and promiscuity. Cause only women can be immoral and promiscuous, right? Certainly not married men cheating on their wives, no, that lies solely on women and their whore-ish inabilities at keeping their legs closed.

In the same ruling, the court also scrapped parts of the Succession Act which gave more rights to men on the death of their wives, than to widows.

Under the previous law, women who were found guilty of adultery could be fined or even sent to prison.
