Why Should You Care?
Because your sexual expression:
- Can result in discrimination, prosecution, and
even violence against you
- Can cause you to lose your children
- Can cause you to lose your job or your income
- Can lead you into a maze of antiquated laws and
regulations you never even knew existed
- Is arbitrarily criminalized by state and local
authorities
- Is used by the radical right to marginalize
minority groups
- Can result in the invasion of your privacy by
the government, both within your own home or in educational,
social and group environments
What We Do:
- Work to change antiquated laws
- Work to change the social climate about sexual
issues
- Promote acceptance of safe, sane, and
consensual alternative sexual practices among consenting adults
- Oppose censorship of consensual sexual
expression
- Fight for freedom of academic expression about
sexual issues
- Help communities and individuals facing the
threat of prosecution or legal action
- Support the right of adults to express their
sexuality, gender identity and orientation freely and openly
without fear
