Atlas Sexual Morality Poll

[politicallefty]

These sorts of issues are a big reason why I'm very solidly in the socially liberal camp. Short of extreme cases (such as snuff films or selling oneself into sexual slavery, which should both be illegal), I'm quite adamant that what goes on between consenting adults in terms of sexuality is absolutely no business of the state and I am not one to pass moral judgement. Do keep in mind that a not insignificant number of states had enforceable anti-sodomy laws until 2003.

1. Agree - I don't see any issue here, provided there are safe regulations as to production.

2. Agree - Not only do I agree, but it seems nonsensical for a couple to not first live together to determine compatibility. I'm not sure I know of anyone personally that hadn't lived together prior to marriage.

3. Agree - I see no issue as to what consenting individuals decide to do regarding their sexuality.

4. Disagree - I cannot see the benefits of forcing parents to live together solely on account of their children. That's a recipe for a nasty home environment.

5. Agree - I don't agree with cheating on one's spouse (although I definitely oppose legislating on that matter). If it's something like swinging where both spouses are consenting, that is the sole business of those involved and I see no issue.

6. Agree - Provided all those involved are consenting and equal in the relationship, they should be able to seek happiness as they see fit. (That does sound more like polyamory than polygamy though. Legal recognition of such a relationship would require serious changes to our legal framework that society is not ready for at this point.)

7. Agree - I support a woman's right to choose until viability of the fetus, at which point it would require exceptions (life/health of the mother, rape, and incest).
