Talk:Conjugal visit

message: See discussion on the talk page? This isn't much of a talk page, much less a discussion. Maybe we could do without the tag? --71.248.77.118 01:31, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The message "The examples and perspective in this article or section may not represent a worldwide view" refers to the fact that this article seems to be only about conjugal visits in the united states, whereas wikipedia is not US-specific.  The article needs to be rewritten to take into account conjugal visits in the rest of the world.  --Xyzzyplugh 13:32, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

message: > The Federal Bureau of Prisons does not allow conjugal visits <
Didn't the US federal government signed various UN treaties that say people have the inalienable right to reproduce? Int'l treaties signed and ratified supercede national constitutions and legislations.
:No, they don't.  The US Constitution is the supreme law of the land, and any international treaties, signed and ratified or not, that contradict the Constitution are null and void. - MSTCrow 17:32, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: It seems you're suggesting that the Constitution declares that people do *not* have the inalienable right to reproduce (otherwise it couldn't actually contradict it). Do you have the citations for that? I have never seen/heard of that. 74.211.15.51 19:45, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Paragraph 1 states that conjugal visits are the right of the spouse, not the inmate. Paragraph 2 states that they are contingent on the inmate's good behaviour. How can the inmate's behaviour impinge on a right of the spouse? Zargulon 16:25, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If the inmate's criminal behavior is what causes them to be sent to prison,   then it impinges on the "right" of the spouse to spend their life with that person.  And their children.Eregli bob (talk) 14:47, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

message: Today, conjugal visitation programs, also known as the Extended Family Visit, survive in only six states: California, Connecticut, Mississippi, New Mexico, New York, Washington and South Dakota.
I count seven states there.  Later on in the article...
New York, California, Mississippi, Washington, Connecticut, and New Mexico are the only six states that currently allow conjugal visits.
So does good ole' South Dakota have them, or not?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.29.167.236 (talk) 23:00, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure this should be in receipt of a redirection form conjugal rights.
While Conjugal Visits are , in SOME countries, the way that conjugal rights are addressed for incarcerees, conjugal rights are a more widespread topic, are not necessarily related to incarceration, and in my opinion a different topic both ethically and historically (see Roger Moore's Bio for an example where neither party was incarcerated)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.164.64.11 (talk) 17:08, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

message: Is there any jurisdiction in the world that allows a married couple, with both of them incarcerated for the same crime, to meet? -- 77.189.70.109 (talk) 20:53, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

message: In the United States section, the article currently states, 
:Today, conjugal visitation programs, also known as the Extended Family Visit, survive in six states. (emphasis added by HH).
The clear implication of the word "survive" is that such programs are under attack and being phased out.  But is this so?  The article says nothing more to make this clear.  So my question is, what is the trend here?  Are these programs expanding or shrinking?  HuskyHuskie (talk) 18:09, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
