Neo-puritanism needs to die. I'm getting excited because I think humanity is just generally getting fed up with control. We're done with this shit.

At least none of these people should be violent. They can have their views. But law is always violent. So it has no business being an extension of anyone's sexual views. If you violently impose your sexual perspective on others you are as good as a rapist in my book.

Only 33% of the US voting population actually voted against Trump who ran on a platform of control. You might be putting too much faith in the general population.

So I know what you mean and I agree, but there are plenty of sexual things that we would want outlawed because of our sexual perspective. Things like rape, sexual assault, pedophilia, etc etc.

The difference between our sexual perspectives and theirs is that we draw the line at harm or lack of consent, they draw the line at disgust.
