My views in brief

The only places the government should be butt in is where there is a potential for non-consent and harm. Legislation should serve and protect, not make worse or infringe. In that light then:

• Abortion: Qualified not OK. The main reason that people are "against" abortion is that they think people have abortions as a means of birth control and that those people are OK with killing babies. Get real! No sane person uses abortion as birth control. Having an abortion should not be easy but it should not be impossible. Give these moms the information and privacy they need to make a very hard decision.
• Birth Control, Self-imposed: OK. Condoms don't hurt anybody. If anything they save people from diseases. Condoms don't make people behave more sinfully than not using condoms. Boys and men jack off liters of sperm every day so don't worry about wasting precious sperm.
• Birth Control, Government imposed: Qualified OK. Parents who keep having babies and can't afford them or care for them need to have birth control imposed upon them. Parents who also have a pattern of producing dangerously sick children by taking drugs and stuff also need birth control imposed upon them. Rapists need birth control imposed upon them. The imposed birth control should not be permanent.
• Child Abuse: Not OK. Children are not of consenting age.
• Circumcision: Weak not OK. Seems to have no health benefit.
• Gay Marriage: OK. Gays getting married do not in anyway reduce the sanctity or quality of heterosexual marriages. Plus Gays need legal protection and benefits too.
• Polygamy: Qualified OK. Must be regulated for safety. Polygamy in not an excuse to do child abuse.
• Pornography: OK. Must have some safety regulations (usu. of the actors).
• Prostitution: OK. Must have some safety regulations.
• Public Sex: Not OK. There may be kids about.
• Rape: Not OK. No consent is given.
• Sex with Animals: Not OK. No consent is given.

• SDM (Standard Days Method). According to the SDM, women who have menstrual cycles between 26-32 days may be considered to be potentially fertile only on days 8-19. SDM has a pregnancy rate of 95.2% just like spermicides, condoms, and diaphragms. The Pill is better with a rate of 99.7%.

  • Erotica [W]. 'Erotica, from the Greek eros, "love", refers to works of art, including literature, photography, and painting, that deal substantively with erotically stimulating or arousing descriptions. It is rather a modern word used to describe the portrayal of human sensuality and sexuality with high-art aspirations, differentiating such work from commercial pornography. ... It has been said, euphemistically, that "The difference between erotica and pornography is simple. Erotica is what I like; pornography is what you like, you pervert".'

  • Pornography [W]. 'Pornography is the representation of the human body or human sexual behaviour with the goal of sexual arousal.'
  • Ribaldry [W]. 'Ribaldry is the third and somewhat neglected genre of sexual entertainments, something different from either pornography or erotica, yet is often confused with them. Unlike either pornography or erotica, which play sex or sexual fetishes "straight," ribaldry aims at humor.'
