According to United States Supreme Court precedent, although the U.S. Constitution does not
expressly state that there is a fundamental right of privacy, such a right does exist, arising from
the penumbras of various other rights expressly protected in the text of the Constitution. Based
on finding such a privacy right, the Supreme Court has held that there is a right to use
contraceptives, a right to abort an unborn child, a right to engage in various sexual acts, and a
right to same-sex marriage. Explain whether the Supreme Court, in finding such a fundamental
right of privacy, acted properly in terms of the separation of powers established by our founders in the U.S. Constitution.
