The US of A isn't the world's most consistent bunch. I think that the laws can have a lot to do with the people where you live. It used to be illegal in Alabama to buy sex toys, for example (don't hold me on that, I'm not a legal expert!), but that isn't outrageous when you think about what the majority opinion is in some of the local, more rural areas.
In brief, the law depends in part on what is socially acceptable, and that tends to vary by location, age, and other factors. Maybe we see this more in the USA where there is a hierarchy of state and federal laws, giving rural areas more autonomy in some ways.
Lawyers didn't write the book of morality. Human laws are an approximation in my humble opinion.
