Sexuality and the law

Abstract

Considers that the law cannot legislate sexual morality and that society has no right to intervene in violations of the law which do not infringe on the rights of others (e.g., prostitution or pornography). The Speijer report, an analysis of the penal code and its relationship to sexual behavior in the Netherlands, is examined as a modern and enlightened approach.
