[54]Bowers v Hardwick has been the subject of sustained criticism.[1] It is interesting to note that in the recent case of Romer v Evans,[2] the United States Supreme Court has, without referring to its decision in Bowers v Hardwick, struck down an amendment to the Colorado State Constitution which prohibited public measures designed to protect persons based on their sexual orientation.
