Our governments ban whatever they want, according to their WILL, unless and until the Supreme Court says we can't ban a particular conduct that the Court sympathizes with. State laws banning or regulating contraceptives have been struck down by the Court, laws banning or regulating abortion have been struck down, and laws banning "sodomy" have been struck down. These laws have not always made a lot of sense, but nonetheless they existed because of the sheer WILL of the respective state legislatures. There is not a constitutional rule that requires the laws to be logical, wise, or consistent.
